Ordered a used ABS module off ebay. Looked a heck of a lot better than mine did...on the outside. I plugged it in but couldn't talk to it at all. Decided to pull it apart and see what I could find...well it's pretty obvious why it wasn't working: Then I decided to pull my original one apart...

Seems like getting the spade back after a pull could be very difficult depending what it drove into/how deep.

If feeling frisky, park brake diaphragm replacement:

This is the reason I support this forum. Awesome info, have been planning to do this. How did you determine the sizes for those who don't have a similar year?

Videos of the somewhat precarious box mounting

I think it's a great idea. So far I've been using them as spares (or to replace ones Snuffy removed- like abs.

Finished drilling most of the holes (middle 5 out of 20 on each side I don't have the clearance for due to huck bolts) and took it on it's first drive with the box mounted. Didn't notice much drivibg difference except I no longer have the harmonic bouncing going down the road. Hopefully that...

Great, another item to add to the list. Well, at least I got C6 clutch bearing replaced.

Working on drilling all the mounting holes for the box. Tough work drilling though 1/2" thick steel with 1/2" diameter bit. Clearances are really small too makes things more difficult. Did "make" a device to help with some holes...a bucket with cribbing provides force to the drill and I just...

Found this video, C7 start is about the same as mine (not great). Mine is just like the one at 5:30

Well that's good to hear my experience sounds about the same.

I can see it pulling a lot of current when it turns on so pretty sure it's functioning as intended.

My worry is the ECM programming is expecting ether or grid heater and I would imagine the engine start parameters are fairly different. Manual control is a fairly easy part of it.

First winter with an A1R and also a diesel. Started it today in 10f and it was not very happy. Had to crank several times(was letting off same as I would in warm temps- when I hear it ignite). Then held starter for a few seconds after catching to keep it running since previous method didn't...

I'm running just fine on a win10 systems using this converter. https://www.usconverters.com/usb-serial-adapter-xs880 Works great.

Very cool, here's my entry

Successful thanksgiving, box is on the frame. Height is 12'7" at rear, 12'8" at front of box (driveway is not perfectly level) 7" to bump stop, 8.5" from tire to box. It was surprising how little the suspension moved when I put the weight on it. Cribbing and jacking was nerve racking as it was a...

I'm not super familiar with MTVR but I would check the axle vents. Mine were plugged on an FMTV and it caused the same ctis issue

Working on the cribbing and lifting setup

Pretty sure I saw a port on my pacbrake.
