Separate pressure switches. I’m going to use a trinary switch since I can’t find the separate switches. I’ll let you know how it works once I get the install done.

I think it’s a NATO training round (blank). I looked on both sides and the rubber pass throughs looked full. I’ll look again tomorrow, I’m over my allotted truck time and need to get to the 4th of July barbq responsibilities - happy fourth y’all!.

Things you find when you take your truck apart… One more question: for folks with Gen 2’s - where do you run your harness out of the cab? I don’t want to drill anymore holes in the cab if I don’t have to.

Here it is, I bought it from Midwest Military. They don’t show that they sell it on their site because they keep them for their customer builds, but if you call they might sell you one.

Am I better off swapping out the switch with this and then pigtailing?

@Ronmar Thanks - I got lucky on the fit. The harness came with the condenser and has the high and low connections. Curious if anyone knew which switch I could swap out? @FarmingSmallKubota - which model number do you need? Condenser? Or Gen 2 unit?

Good news - no bracket needed. Found another way to mount it. BUT the plugs don’t align to the trinary switch to the dryer I bought. Anyone know what plug is needed for this switch??

Curious if anybody knows where I can find the condenser mounting brackets for an A1R truck? Google searches aren’t helping. 😖😫

Thank you so much for the pictures, detail and your explanation of this process. I’m gonna try to do this this weekend. Curious how violent is the spring when it lets go?

Great work! Love watching the progress on your truck.

understood. My goal is to try to get as big of a habitat on the back as realistically possible. Since it’s M1085 it has a 20 foot bed and there’s 18 inches between the bed and the cab so if I could steal another foot there that gives me 21 feet for 2 feet to hang over the back. But if I can...

I'm curious, for the folks that are working on or have a camper build, what on your opinions on the stack mounted vs the barrel style air intake? I'm trying to get as much space possible for the habitat and was curious on the forum's opinion. thoughts?

Hey folks, I’m starting to do the GEN two a/c install for my 2007 1085 A1R. Curious if there’s any documentation or if you guys can guide me on where the original placement is on the Reddot AC condenser on an A1R? Is it placed up front next to the radiator?

Hey guys, I’m back to working on the truck again and had 2 questions. I bought a GEN two AC evaporator I’m about to install in the truck and was curious if I needed to also replace the air brake manifold since I have a A1R truck? Second question, is there someplace that sells a kit for...

Quick update: pump installed and cab has been raised for the first time! I’m less mechanically savvy than most of you so I just repurposed the old hand pump metal covering and turned it sideways and bolted it to the storage box. It worked well and the pump has zero play when you’re using the...

Hey guys, quick update – traced the airline all the way back to the furthest back axle. There were two check valves similar to the one that Ron is highlighting above and the line hooked into the top switch which has now been plugged. All is good and ready to hook up the hydraulics. Small wins!

Yep, just need to trace it back but was hoping someone knew where it was to save me effort undoing/redoing fasteners. 😩

Hey guys, I’m still working on my hydraulic issue and have decided to put in Ron’s pump solution as my fix (partially inspired by the work, Invictus is doing to his build 👍). I have deleted the tire lift and have deleted the controller. I’m having one big problem in that I can’t find where to...

@CallMeColt - thx for the correction, should have read the entire thread.

I watched this on YouTube the other day and seem’s he’s found someone who now is making LMTV hose kits. The company was Superior Soobie and Imports: (503) 880-4084. Superiorsoobie.com (ask for Rick)
