    tires or CTIS leaking?

    What would be my next step? would I just cap off the valve (left) with an end that will hook up to an air chuck? Also when I put it back together do I just put thread lock glue on it? Finally, will the same 90 degree brass angle in circle on right fit on the pipe (left circle) that I will cap off?

    tires or CTIS leaking?

    when I sprayed the wheel valve with soapy water would I have noticed that the grommet leaks or is it usually hard to spot?

    tires or CTIS leaking?

    I am sure that this has been gone over time and time again but how can I tell for sure whether the tires or the CTIS is leaking on an m35a3? The back two tires are the ones that leak the most, they leak out in one day and the others take about a week. First, I sprayed the tires with soapy water...

    Finally found the air leak

    I went out there one last time tonight with two flashlights and a headlamp and got the one low air buzzer line hooked up and it worked like a champ. but I still need to fix the air leak in the other line.

    Finally found the air leak

    It is located under the dash and your right, I never have had the low air buzzer working and that is probably why. I will also post some more pics. should I just try disconnecting it and reconnecting it again to try and fix the leak?

    Finally found the air leak

    After extensive searching I have finally found the air leak I have been hearing. I don't know what the piece that is leaking does or is so I was hoping you guys could identify it. It is located near the steering column. I have checked the TM's and had no luck. By the way it is and m35a3

    several question about the a3

    Finally got everything put together again like it should be. I was reading in the Tm's though and they said that just a tear would cause fluid to leak if not packed with grease, so do I need to worry about having all of the bearings wear out? I am just trying to get everything fixed as best as I...

    several question about the a3

    Ok, I have just finished taking off the guard that was in my way and got some pics. So should I have grease everywhere that I have edited and put red marks? If so should I just take a grease gun and try and pack it in there?

    several question about the a3

    I have a couple of quick questions that I am wondering about my m35a3. First, I have noticed that the front right knuckle boot is completely off. I am wondering if I just remove the guard if I will be able to get the boot back in place but since I am fairly new to the a3 I am wondering if I need...

    anyone know what this is

    I was just curious if anyone knows what this grey frame above the spare tire does. I have looked and haven't found any other trucks with it. Any ideas?

    Saw these beauties today

    looks like a ton a fabricating but looks like they forgot to get the tires switched around so they are all the same direction. It also is kind of a waste of suspension to have the box hang down so far where the spare should go,but thats just my thoughts.

    what do ya know about driving a crane?

    We have been able to drive the crane a little now but less than 5 mph it just feels like there is something preventing it from going any faster, also we still drive about 5 feet forward then switch to reverse and back up and then it seems like it locks up again and then we can't move it any more...

    what do ya know about driving a crane?

    The other day we got a crane and today we went to drive it for the first real time because we just pulled it off of the trailer that brought it here. No matter what we do the crane won't drive/ or it will drive a few feet and then when we switch to another gear (ex: from forward to reverse) it...

    M35A3 Air Pressure Relief Valve.

    I have also had problems with the pressure relief valve. But instead of popping off, whenever I shut off the truck it slowly leaks air.

    Crane air brakes

    We are probably going to use a tractor to pull it off of the trailer.

    Crane air brakes

    I have a cane coming soon and I am wondering how to unload it. It has NO fluids so I can't start it to drive it off so I am thinking I can pull it off but in order to do that I need to release the air brakes. Does anyone know how to do that without starting it?
