Ok, lets start with the last one. K11 should NOT go click when when you pull it while running as it should be de-energized. It should go click when you turn on the ignition switch. 24v ign power flows thru CB77, and thru the neutral relay K26 energized contacts(30-87) to reach K11s coil. The...

Just remove the wheel on the one you cant cage:) or apply air to the front red gladhand, which is how a towing vehicle would release them…

There should be one stored in a holder on each can…

Each bag, probably around #400? cant find my absolute pressures in my notes, just the differential pressure when I was trying to determin airspring piston area. I came up with each spring having about 12sq/in of surface area. IE when I added #240 to the arch, I got a 10PSI increase in air...

Sure, Same chassis tech #2200 bags and I will start with a Gabriel 83057 shock. The original travel is I believe ~1.75” This shock has 3” total but has a bump stop on each end, #242 of compression and #364 of rebound resistance at typical velocities. So just over 2” of smooth travel between...

Yea what third said, aux cooler only used on the tractor variant with the aux trans oil cooler radiator and fans, and the work light relay only used on the wrecker trucks. The K12 worklight relay is dead easy to convert into a 12v switched ignition relay. I did a video on it on my utube channel…

You see there I go not thinking 4th dimensionally again… I really need to work on that:)

Styer went with coilovers, and the general consensus is that they suck:)

Well there is no frame mount structure above this to attach to for a pull type down limit, you would have to add a tower of some sort. Using straps for something like that is not the best in my opinion anyway as I don’t think they age well and have a cyclic limit. it would be far easier to...

I would keep a close eye on the bags and straps. The 83035 shock you chose has at least 1“ more travel than the bag is supposed to have. I have seen 2 different specs for those bags, 3”- 6” and 2.88”- 6.25” Or between 3 and 3-3/8” of travel. That shock has a bump stop and cutoff valve on the...

I have run Rotella 15W40 in all my diesels for years…

Interesting, wonder why he could not compress it to minimum height? sounds like he was standing on it…

Yep I love hardlines, and this one would not have been an issue if they had simply added support or routed it so it was not overhung… to be fair, where hoses are specified, typically so are inspection and replacement intervals for the reasons mentioned…

Or OEM has repeatedly failed destroying engines:)

You need to look at the production date on the info sticker on top of the engine. My 98 truck had a 96 engine in it:)

oh yeah thats a bad/fouled pressure regulator. You should get 10PSI cranking, 25 PSI at idle and it should shift up to a stable 60PSI as you ramp up the RPM. At any given RPM the pressure should be very stable(once you cancell out the pulsations from the pump with a snubber/restricter. Below...

Its only for the 3116 governor oil feed line…

Yea what General said would not surprise me at all. ABS/Traction control vehicles occasionally do this, and from what I have seen of the LMTV ABS wiring, the system looks like it could be capabel of traction control, but the LMtV does not have the air supply plumbing to the actuators... if...

Yep, you could probably drill and tap a hole. It is not structural, it just needs to act as a strut and keep the line from oscilating...

If I kept the steel line I would support it back to the block in the middle of the loop. The issue is the oem is like a ruler held on the edge of a table like a diving board. Twang it enough and it will fatigue and break... Dont have this issue with hose...
