Knock on wood I haven't had any interest from road pirates on Oregon with my Utah plates. The reality is that I can just claim it's an RV and well..... the whole purpose is to travel with it. I just claim I have a business in Utah and that's where it's registered.
Keep your truck looking...
Just get Utah plates and be done with that stupid state. Oregon has complications for me due to my truck being a BAE truck so I have Utah plates. Screw them if they don't want my money.
As mentioned - I rebuilt my pump and just operated it and the hand pump while rotating all the knobs to various settings and eventually it started working normally. My pump prior to the rebuild would work for a few cycles and then it would blow off it's internal relief valve and stop pumping -...
Smack the mating tapered ring on the knuckle, etc with a BFH. You don't hit the tapered, threaded shaft itself. You want to slightly oval (elastic deformation, not plastic deformation) the mating ring with a BFH to break the rust and tapered fit.
On my 2008 they damn near fell out with the nuts...
Honestly you probably won't be able to get it done. It can't be registered commercial since it's older than 2010 and that's an absolute denial on emissions alone.
And it can't be registered as an RV unless you install permanent sleeping/cooking accommodations and get VERY lucky with your choice...
You still have to enable it on the C7 ECM. You need CAT ET and a compatible J1939 adapter or you need to take the truck to a CAT dealer. If you have the software and adapter it literally takes about 2 minutes to enable cruise. From the factory these engines have the cruise minimum enable speed...
Broke overland installed it incorrectly BTW. Don't follow his wiring. Follow the instructions from Berend. Mine works great.
With the C7 the ECM will disable the PAC brake when the CC is turned on unless you depress the brake pedal. With the CC off the PAC brake will engage when you lift off...
Measure the pins, but these appear to be some derivative or custom size of a standard 0.093" pin Molex connector..... possibly using the same pins. Measure them and use a hollow tube pin extractor to get one free and compare...
Yes they have the equipment to talk to the CTIS. But they probably *don't* have the Dana software that is actually significantly more useful than the IETM stuff. They can pull codes but since the Army doesn't want the grunts changing the pressure settings on the CTIS controller they don't have...
Can honestly say that's the weirdest collection of parts I have seen thus far. But according to the parts manual it did indeed exist. The A1R cab latch was introduced starting at serial number 100001. Coil over shocks were introduced at serial number 101906.
What's your serial number? It will...
The A1R and A1P2 trucks have the 260A alternator. FMTV's went from 100 straight to 260. I believe there may have been a kit for a 200A unit offered back in the A0/A1 days but I've never seen one. Production units were 100 and later 260.
Other A1R features include the high-pinion rear axle...
You do not have the air ride cab? You should..... I wouldn't think they ever produced a non air ride without coil spring shocks..... The coil springs were to support the armored cab upgrade and that's also when they deleted air ride.
