1% grade won't lock the trans in park (but on my driveway it kicks in). Has to be in gear and park brake released (else it in a no go). I don't recall if my A0 had that same feature but my A1R does. Yeah, all three trucks that I've owned had brakes that will strick a bit if wet and allowed to...

That was my thought, but then he said it appeared to have a 12 inch radius

Was the truck parked on an incline? Could the brakes have gotten wet prior to sitting?

Ran across this just now. I wonder who else makes them. Tesla plugs will be stupid expensive (but still less than surplus I bet). LOL http://www.teslaind.com/products-connectors.php

Those have air lockers?

Dooo eeeeet !!!!! Dooooo eeeeeet !!!!!

True. Perhaps someone else will tackle the Axletech proof of concept. Like the old 3.07's used to be, they can be had for a dime-a-dozen and by the truckload.

Yep. Dunno why he didn't pursue the Axletech project other than he he's still dragging home truckloads of 3:07s. It would even resolve the driveline vibrations the Meritor suffers due to the harsh angle aft.

Just switch to an Axletech driveline. Then the MRAP wheels will fit. *and you'd have highspeed gears, air lockers, and disc brakes. ;p

And the cable terminal clamps also have two sizes. Ground is the smaller. So the longer cable with the smaller clamp should be the ground.

Typically, if they were laid in order where they came off... Starting at 2:00 (inboard left) will be the 2x 24v. The 11:00 (inboard right) will be the 12v. The 5:00 (outboard right) would be the ground.

Truck porn. Sounds like it started just prior to the dump valve releasing? If replicable, I'd start there.

Good stuff here. I've got a big fan cooler that I intend to stuff into the back frame someday. Waiting until I get the box off to attempt it, but I'm going to start measuring my runs for lines and fab my brackets up.

Yeah, I see now that you're talking about a post from last year. I was referring to the most recent video in the thread. My bad.

You do know that the guy where talking about here built this truck by hand from the ground up, right? While he holds down a real job.

Yeah, I saw where he had crashed earlier in the month. Sucks as they were just getting into the maiden voyage. btw: if you've not seen how he made his slideouts, you should check it out...

Someone on FB sent me this pic a few months back but never heard any follow up...

You can find them in many sizes (some of the aluminum ones up to 8 foot). https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MSMCOPM

My experience is just don't let any of the magic smoke out. Once it escapes...
