Is it a runner?

I'm surprised no one mentioned the Prius towing from last year. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?124406-Prius-pulling-A-recovery-of-sorts

From where you mentioned you are thinking about storing it trust me, killeen isn't the town you want to test your brake quality in. We'll get it figured out.

This was a fun ride from Georgia to Louisiana then to Texas. This why I strongly suggest against it, lol

Beat me to it. Those pesky search terms, lol

I pm'd you

I pulled my M750 trailer with my F450. Did it do it, yes. Did it do it safely, NO! Flat towing the 1079 with a 250 is asking for trouble, not to mention IP/GP will not let you off the site with that setup. If you did manage to leave the site it's a guarantee the MP's will stop you before you...

I was just correcting the math. If something requires let's say 10 amps on 24 volts and you decided to power it using a step up converter off of 12v the total load on the 12v side will be 20 amps. Just the opposite if you used a step down converter to run something on 12 v from 24 v, the load on...

Yeah at an idle state it will have little power required. Just like with inverters. That 2000 watt inverter will require a minimum of 200 amps on 12v. Personally I'd stick with what is good. Granted I'm changing my 818 over to 12v but it's a mechanical engine so just swap a alternator and...

To provide a full 40 amps at 24 volts from 12 volts will require a minimum 80 amps 12v. No way to cheat the math.

Pics of the new alternator and bracket please. How much did the bracket run you?

It's the battery tester.

What engine?

I took a het to sonic and McDonald's

Gonna have to dive into the tms on that one. Hopefully someone else will chime in on adjusting them. I was the guy who you called when the truck didn't go vroom vroom no more and I brought it to the mechanics.

You can cage the other to see which one is grabbing. If its still grabbing with it caged it to tight and needs adjusting.

Yeah build air, see if it still grabs. It shouldnt.

It's an old video, but this shows the force that spring has. At 2:50 is where it gets fun. https://youtu.be/_WUKLX_cFXM?t=2m54s

No they don't, it makes it easier but they don't. In a perfect world I would loved to have had all the brakes I caged working, lol Like I said, it'll make it easier but you still need to tighten the nut down tight, not snug in your situation. You're caging a spring pack that isn't working...

Holly cow, the one you linked to went for 11,500. Wow, that person got a steal of a deal.
