both relays good. Upgraded to 80amp for future. Bulb tested and good. Having a hard time finding a new diode... Now the VM itself - when I remove the bulb and look inside there appear to be 2 small solder tipped copper tabs - is there supposed to be a shunt there or something? Needle still...

there are two there - any idea which?

Well after reading this thread and the TM as well as doing a search and reading some other threads I still have a question or two and some information I couldn't find. Same issues as Durango USMC. Replaced both voltage regulators with HD ones, both stators with HD (200A nominal) versions...

So... Has anyone tried a blower or a twin (one per manifold) small turbo setup? With a 10-11 PSI wastegate...

the finned thing? No the voltage regulator is the white item with three mounting holes in it and and the two plug terminals. The finned thing is the voltage rectifier

Ugh. Some "fun" today - gauge started reading well into the red then a insulation-ish smell. Left running and popped the hood - rear battery was venting gas and boiling. So I'm assuming it is cooked (yeah I know - bad pun) So what would cause that sort of voltage runaway?

drove about 6 hrs on the interstate no problem - made traction on ice/snow on Donners pass (I80) a piece of cake. Missing is the 3rd strap that looped around the pinion and both hubs to the sides of the bar to tie it back and prevent side/side motion. Piece of cake for a one person pickup and...

Hard to see the shovel - but it sits nicely behind the bushguard. Pickaxe handle/head and Axe in the cab (clamped in the gun holders with pickaxe head unmounted and in the corner of the cab body vertically)

with the D70HD that's replacing the 14bFF... sucker is too heavy to handload into the camper.

@MyAngry85, re pic 2 in second post, not sure where that is or why the reinforcing plate... but great almost OEM looking bumper - did you use OEM grill guard or go with heavier material? My neck of the woods 1/2"x2" would work better with an added horizontal between the headlight and parking...

@ MarcusOReallyus, probably... especially the bit about some tech not understanding the wiring diagram. Although it is not that much different in concept than the 240v 2 phase power than enters the house to be split and used as two 120 volt single phase halves in the wiring (and the 240v to the...

Yes it will unbalance the charging load. OR you could run 3 cables (-12v (aka CUCV ground), "camper ground" (aka +12v), +12v (aka +24v)) to the camper and install 2 batteries, each in parallel with one of the main batteries. Then keep the pos and neg 12 v circuits completely separate and put...

HOWEVER.... after running this for a while I discovered that the rectifier (the finned thing) needs to be upgraded as well. The Diode trio is ok - same part number used in both. About $29 for the heavy duty rectifier - can't find the part number but if you get it for a Delco 27SI Isolated ground...

Yep - them's the beasties.

Or the Mercedes G56 out of a recent Dodge - very similar splits and pattern

OK - looked at search results but swaps were on M1009's and 52" springs... Has anybody mounted a set of rear M1008 springs up front on a M1008? if so: How long are they? (or how much longer than the stock front springs)? Did you use these...

But can you even GET a set of 3" wide 4" to 6" lift springs for an 11000 GAWR application complete with a second stage (helper spring) that kicks in after 7000# or so?

Not sure I understand how the springs no longer being in compression could happen . . . the overload is the short thick one at the bottom of the pack, and why couldn't the striker brackets for the helper spring just be relocated? Also - is that a sway bar disconnected in one of the pics? The...

so when removed the glowplugs get 24V? I have not changed the glowplugs so wouldn't that reduce their heat? I read through the above link and am still confused - before anyone says it, am now searching (also for wiring a manual glow plug switch...)
