I was under the impression that it was dual and the output number represented the 24v side.
So the 100 were 100/40, the 200 were 200/50, and the 260 were 260/140.
It was the reason I never looked into the 200a for my old AO truck (I was leaning towards a big 24va with a step down for the 12)...
^THIS ^THIS ^THIS a thousand times THIS
100a on these trucks is anemic (simply idiotic when run with four TL6's). My 1960's 1600cc air-cool VW bug motors have more amperage.
Many owners don't realize that the 100a dual voltage Niehoff put's out 100a to the 24 side and 40-50a to the 12v side...
Im out of town for another week but I'll take a look when I get back.
So far the only thing I've tossed up on the screen that didn't work was the fuel usage/mpg stuff. I've not looked into if it's just not available or if it's just borked.
I don't know if I tested EGT but all the other stuff...
Looking at the video, that "disabled at grades over 4%" seems like exactly what is going on if I understand it correctly. Neutral at Stop is clearly not working with my truck. As you say, could be a number of causes I suspect.
I'm going to look into it further, but I'm not gonna lose sleep...
Thanks.
I also confirmed that it does this facing either way on an incline.
No other issues with shifting or the AWD observed.
I'll have to do some lookign into it. It's been like that since I owned the truck.
It's 100% a trans thing and not brakes. I can feel the trans hold and release.
Odd. I'll have to do a video as I said. Mine does not free roll forward on a mild incline (never has). It's not brakes, because as soon as I shut off the ignition it will roll as you guys describe. I figure that it must be the trans that's holding it in place in N.
Next time you are about in...
He's talking about the trans.
For those that don't know, the A1R trucks have an odd sort of "park" feature in that model Alison. My truck sits on an inclined driveway (typically backed in). With the ignition on or the truck running, I can put it in neutral and release the brakes and the truck...
Yeah, the military Pull Pal is rated to 12k pull for up to 10k GVW and they make a industrial 14k version for up to 12k GVW. I suspect the limits are structural (ie where the anchor disassembles itself). So GWV + resistance (mud, sand, etc).
Personally, I'm more a fan of the one-piece...
Here's serious contender, but it doesn't list a weight rating. But it's basically the same design as a marine plow anchor.
IMO, the one-piece solutions are the only ones that these trucks won't disassemble.

When / if I add a winch, I'll likely carry a marine plow anchor.
They are basically the best for all environments (sand, mud, rock) and have the best holding power and weight rating.
They aren't cheap, though.
I had a surprisingly small one I kept in my old Chevy's recovery kit and used it...
Well you might move the batteries in where it's warmer in the meantime. I don't know your application here.
I'm likely not the best to answer, though. I recreated the OEM setup with a temp sensor and heating element. But honestly, I don't know that I've ever run the...
