I had the same issue with my Deuce. I ended up just getting a replacement generator. No issues. It wasn't cheap but a year later no problems ! I tried replacing the regulator inside the generator but still no good. Something in the windings or armature is bad. M35 Deuce and 5 Ton...

I know some big guys are changing out steering wheels for more room. Also, I would consider altering the shifter a little. Make a cut in the shifter low and see if you can bend it away from you in a direction that gives you more room and is still fully functional, then reweld. I put an...

This is my new sexy ;)

Check with truckdeals.com Walker Price got me $2/mile from Camp Shelby to my home over 600 miles.

Keep us updated on what you find. Since this trucks are coming out in mass we need to get a good database down in the forum for fixing such issues. My 932A1 has had a few unique issues that took a few days to trouble shoot. The TM's for the 9 series trucks are not the best. I had a forum...

Awesome work. Its great when you fix a major problem. I had air brake issues with my m932 that I just got from GL. I trouble shot the issue for 2 days, replaced 2 diaphragms only to find out some GI had put two air lines on backwards ! She is now about 90%. Need an air pressure switch, fix the...

The new failsafe warning unit is different than the old. Its a completely sealed unit with no external speaker like the old unit. Its completly enclosed in pastic. The guys at Boyce said that the old type units seem to fail more often.

Glad you found the problem. Its always very satisfying to fix issues that are difficult

Took the truck for a test drive no issues and everything seems to work great !

Problem solved. After replacing both diaphragms and still having the same problem we, me and 73m819 began trouble shooting. We disconnected the opposite line from outside the spring brake diaphragm that was having air come in and causing the air loss. The other side did not have this issue. So...

Don't forget to change the fluid in those axles :razz: Looks like you both need fording kits :)

The air leak at the brake is in another post. Many thanks to the SS members for helping trouble shoot the issue. The 9 series TM's leave something to be desired. Not nearly as complete or well written as the TM's for the Duece. I will probably put a coat of carc inside the cab and then...

looks like fun !

73m819 and I talked at length about air brakes. I am definitely the new kid on the block when it comes to these brakes. I've learned soo much today. Tomorrow will be interesting to see how easy it is to get new diaphragms locally. There is no dought that the leak is on the hand brake...

Thanks for all your help ! I'm really surprised at the lack of explanation the TM's have for the 9 series trucks. The Deuce TM's walk you through it; very detailed and easy to follow. Its all togehter, I'll pull it apart tomorrow morning and see if napa or the local peterbuilt has the...

OK, got it back togehter and now air is leaking from inside the drum (maybe it was doing that all along)? The diaphragm that i pulled out looked almost new didn't see any signs of a problem but could have missed something. The diaphragm would have to be bad to allow air to exit from inside...

I'll go and check the caging and try to tighten a little more.

OK, drained all air and caged the brake for the offending wheel. I pulled the clamp off and inspected the spring brake chamber diaphragm and it looks like it wasn't sealed well. The diaphragm looks very good. Tried to put it back together but the spring on the spring brake side is just too...

I'll look through the TM's again. It makes sense what your saying !

The truck builds air great. Then when I take my hand brake off it starts loosing air out of the left middle axle brake assembly. Put the hand brake on and all is good. It is coming out of the brake assembly not the tube on the air intake. Any ideas ? I've looked through the TM and its not...
