    winch installs

    You may want to check to see how the BATT. switch functions. The cut off switch on the MOG disconnects the ground. If your using chassis ground for the winch all the current goes through the switch. It may not be designed to take the winch current load. I installed a battery cut off switch from...

    FLU 419 Blown Head lights aka Kermit vision problem

    My first gut feel is voltage spikes. Gimpyrobb mentioned vibration. Definitely going to check that. I'm either burning out or breaking the filament, loosing continuity. Could be I just got a pair of cheap poor quality headlights. But Id hate to install a new set and have them blow again...

    M923 Air Pressure not building past 45 PSI...ANy IDEAS?

    NHC250 compressor primer. I recently found out you can sort of rent Microsoft Office. It just so happens I've been playing with power point documenting my NHC250 compressor work. This was part of my excessive air pressure in the coolant system issue. It is in movie form. http://1drv.ms/1tozGjC...

    M923 Air Pressure not building past 45 PSI...ANy IDEAS?

    The red,emergecy "T" handle glad hand valves are backwards the "L" handle valves are not. On the M944. Wonder why. You can easily check for proper air governor operation. The air Governor sends air pressure to the unload-er to "Shut off" the compressor. Remove the unloaded signal line from the...

    Not knowing what kind of condition I'll be in (no not drunk) I'm reluctant to volunteer. How ever if I got a "Hey You" I'd be honored to do what I can to contribute! I'm going to keep my eyes open to do what ever I can.

    IronPlanet.com Selling Military Rolling Stock SOON!

    Obviously IP won the contract by indicating more money going back to the government than GL. To do this they either need to get more money for the vehicles or lowering their margin or both. I doubt a better operating efficiency would be enough to win the contract. I often get asked "where do you...
