    Axle Vents

    That's making more sense thank you! However it brings up the question if one doesn't "mod" how much depth can those axles take? With the fording kit it adds pressure to the axles so if these valves are designed to hold a regulated pressure on the axles then why are people removing them? And yes...

    Axle Vents

    I think your confused, my useless comment was made towards the vent MOD not the vent itself. Of course the vent has a use. As for vacuum, likely what will happen is it will draw in air from the void in the knuckle which is clean and dry, assuming one hasn't crammed it full of grease.

    Axle Vents

    ok so took my axle vent off to mod and sure enough pressure came out of axle... so just to make sure vent wasn't plug I ran shop air through it. you can hear a check ball inside. so all in all it is a pressure check valve of sorts, so for me I will "insert foot in mouth" Now for the mod it...

    Axle Vents

    Thanks for all the good advice! I'm still not quite on board with the whole pressurized axle thing.

    Axle Vents

    What little Information I'm finding on axle vents seems to suggest that they are some sort of pressure release. Upon inspection they appear to be a primitive one way valve that wouldn't be very effective. Was thinking about relocating my vents to a higher location and wanted everyone else's...

    M1010 CUCV Cab/ Front AC

    has anyone thought about creating a negative pressure on the cab while leaving the sliding door open and the rear A/C on? Thus moving the cold air into the cab. One could do this (Possibly) by reversing current to the blower motor? Maybe... Never used a blower motor that way. But its so crazy it...

    Is turbo mod worth it?

    Im curious what the OP elevation is? I can honestly say my m1009 and m1010 do pretty well considering, unless im pulling a trailer that is and I would totally agree. I have never driven in any elevation over about 900ft so I cant chime in on that so was curious. Also what 6.5 parts transfer to...
