    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    We're going to the Denton NC. Rally in April. Our finances are preventing us from going to the Georgia rally this year. Otherwise we don't have any other ones on the books. How about you? I've decided it would be to long of a rig to hook the camper to the 5 ton. I was worried about the...

    Sounds good to me! We'll be getting there Thursday night. It would be nice for those of us that only know each other by screen name, to be able to id each other easier. Anyone else getting there Thursday?

    Front axle seals and boots stepXstep

    I think if you clean it up either with a file or a burr bit you'll be fine. Put a light coating of Grey or black silicone on the outer flange to be sure.

    Loud metallic rattling just before air pressure release?

    Mine gets louder also above 100 psi. Almost sounds like the compressor has a rod knock. I happen to have other trucks (not MV's) around that have the 8.3L and they all have similar, increasing noise levels over 100 psi from the compressor. The odometer range from 140k trash trucks that run 6hrs...

    I have a pair of 923 inner fenders, both the same side. Free to anyone who wants them. I can bring them to the rally.

    M923A2 air leak at air tank pressure protection valve

    New air dryer is on the short list, draining the air tanks I do all the time but never get any water out. I reckon it's about the moisture in the air though.

    M923A2 air leak at air tank pressure protection valve

    Just to follow up, the ambient temps climbed to 55* F today! Yeaaaaa, all the snow's gone! My over pressure issue and air leak at the pressure protection valve have both resolved themselfs without any action.

    M923A2 air leak at air tank pressure protection valve

    Just add pressure protection valve added at the end. Might make someone else's searching easier.

    M923A2 air leak at air tank pressure protection valve

    Ahh, so that's the ppv. It's supposed to jump to 50*F tomarrow so it should thaw out. This weather is uncharacteristically cold for us. 25* is normally the coldest for the winter here, this week we've gotten a inch of ice! I've been chasing air leaks and stuck valves on most of the trucks at...
