    Finally, my M1083A1 is at it's new home...

    Congrats on the win! Let me at least point you in the right direction to start your adventure with her. You have an earlier model A1 truck with the Cat 3126. That being said, you also have the later of those models that came with the battery disconnect box, remote start switchs on the engine...

    What Are They?

    It's part of the airdrop design on later A1 trucks. My 2009 BAE M1093A1 has it but my 2008 S&S M1078A1R doesn't and both have the upgraded alternator, coil over relief springs, etc. So far all late LVAD and LAPES/AD trucks I've seen have it (M1081A1 and M1093A1) but I've yet to see a M1094A1...

    MRAP Buffalo Trainer

    General update. Manage to track down some electrical gremlins and get them sorted out today. She now starts and runs like a champ but there's still more electrical work investigate due to the custom work done during the transformation from M925 to Buffalo. I took the new steam washer to her and...

    Bad disconnect relay. Replaced or bypassed and all was good.

    Stuck Wedges? Right Side Brakes will NOT release

    Yes, BFG. Most tractors I come across need their drums to be hit a few times to release. NDT's method is the correct diagnostic step for failure but this seems like a rusting issue.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    This M936A2 just got new fuel lines through and through (I despise the fuel selector valve hoses), adjusted the rear PTO linkage, and other minor repairs. It's amazing how new something is when it's overhauled lazily then they deadlined it because nothing works right. Good old RRAD. BTW...

    Need tcm for am general M916

    I can't help you with that one. The only one that can tell you would be Allison by using the transmission S/N to look it up. This CIN was on my 2010 M916. My 2012 M916 is also different. There was likely updated programming as trucks were produced but this is a guestimate.

    Need tcm for am general M916

    Having gone though these hurdles recently I can provide you everything. ALLISON TRANSMISSION A59 TCM Control Module, 29551869 is what you need, check ebay for about $600 used. The CIN data is what you need. Simpson posted his and I can get you a pic of mine if needed. Take everything and your...

    New FLU419 Owner, Electrical Woes

    Mine may have been redone at RRAD but the harness was done after it was painted at Hood at a later date and must have been where the issue was caused.

    New FLU419 Owner, Electrical Woes

    Yes and no. Multiple things were wired backwards in the dash when the unit got a new wire harness installed while in service. Ultimately I got some things to work but sold the unit.

    M35A2 converting to super singles

    The other option is to use A3 rims and they bolt on without adapter plates and etc.

    Thanks for the ad

    Congrats. That's a Ft. Hood contractor truck. Check all fluids and toss in some batteries to see if she'll fire up. I had one too with that Knapheide body from the same yard years ago.

    5 ton recovery, happy as a fat kid with a donut.....

    Air pressure sensors get stuck, super common. Order 2 and install (passenger side behind toolbox/step)

    Request: MHE-270 TM Troubleshooting TM

    AH-HA!! The -24 I was sent was a redacted version and simply was missing sections. I was going freaking crazy. Thank you for the sanity check as I downloaded it from another source and it's the full document.
