So, Frank here is an update we've been meaning to post but are just buried with work and projects so we are way behind. Covid shut our mobile entertainment business down and most of the components of the business are stacked to the rafters in every available closet or room. so we are playing...
Well we have been side tracked with our trailer project and the air dryer debacle, but Soldier A did finish the day by starting the bow set clean up. Since this truck is going to be such a critical part of our future he won't put anything on it unless it's new or like new. So, he's taking...
After many hours on the web and phone yesterday Soldier A finally got all the way to Bendix tech and support guys. Awesome guys and very informative. Not going to post all they had to say because contacting an attorney was suggested. What they did confirm is our air dryer is a Bendix AD-9 knock...
So, Soldier A stayed up almost the whole night (OCD is raging) and can't fins the diagram that shows where the little spring and black bulb go. Any guesses fellas?
She's probably just going to go to the cat dealer in Tukwila that is doing the striker rebuild contract for jblm they want to put hands on her and are not mwm fans at all previous bad experiences

So, Ladies & Gentlemen this is the air dryer unit I have on my truck. When we stopped in Laramie, WY on the way home a very nice and knowledgeable Laramie police officer pulled up next to the truck when he saw the cab up. He has had the same truck for 3 years and was kind of a 1078 guru. He told...
Rick,
You are too cool thank you so much. We want to make sure that's right so tomorrow I'll take a picture and post it. Basically it's a big black smooth cylinder with what looks like an aluminum base and lots of bolts to hold it together.
As always thanks
