Will see how it goes, my original idea was similar to this and I can still add on the feature if I find it a pain, but then I also have to worry about bracketry to support that intermediate flange when tilting cab. Not a big deal just more parts. I'm going with the assumption, the truck will now...

Yes if you connect the loads directly it eliminates the function of the capacitors.

Maybe for the future if I find manually attaching it annoying.

Yep, it just pulls off very quickly, can be put back in a minute or two. I was going to do a quick disconnect method but decided to go with simplicity and reliability.

Wrapped up the pass through, turned out well!

I think they won't sell to normal people anymore. Also says " Wholesale Inquiries Only! " on website. They just sent me to my local allison dealer.

I'm all for it, seems like a lot of educated conjecture but real world testing would verify or disprove theories.

Standard to lube cables, common on mountain bikes and motorcycles. Lightweight lube recommended to avoid too much grit/dirt attraction.

Is there any reason people don't like to post links or mention certain websites? I see it a lot on here. Are the compressors the same for 3116,3126,C7?

Looks like I have an exhaust leak. Looked like it was around the manifold but with closer inspection I definitely have air coming out the vband connection in front of the pac-brake. Checked air flow with a tiny piece of fabric and air from the pac is blowing towards the deposits on the head...

Pass through is all mounted! Very happy overall with how it turned out. Have some painting, putting in some soft pads to kneel on when crawling through, and the accordion seals but that's all easy stuff. Pretty easy to crawl through and I'm 6'4" 195lb. Kids can practically run though it. The...

Worked on the middle box for the pass through, as well as the bracket. Probably will have it properly mounted tomorrow.

A1r here, my oil pressure gauge moves a lot. About a second delay but varies a lot with rpm.

Thanks for the refresher!

I think it's a wording thing and I wasn't clear. My batteries do not disconnect, I see a decent amount of voltage sag when the grid heater is on, that's also when the alternator is flashing orange. I meant the alternator "disconnected" not the batteries. I looked it up at One point but I forget...

In Wisconsin the below is required. No inspection needed either. My truck(RV) is plated up to 80k gross. No CDL required as long as it's under 45ft (6) “Motor home" means a motor vehicle designed to provide temporary living quarters built into as an integral part of, or permanently attached to...

Yep, unable to start in -12 F (or maybe it was -14). Today it was 34 and truck started totally normally. On the alternator route, my 100amp temporarily disconnects (although I don't get a dash light) when the grid heater is running. Have dual blinking orange lights on the regulator (this is at...

Modified the bracketry for the coolant tank to move it back about 3 in. Now regardless of how much the cab flexes, the pass-through bulkhead can't come in contact with the coolant tank.

It will be attached above the air box with bellows on each side, both removable.

Not sure about winch yet, but if I do it will probably be electric. I'm sure the heater would help some, but unless I heated the batteries I don't know if it would be enough. Was considering a 24v jump pack that could be kept warm. It's a shame alternators are so dang expensive for these trucks.
