What brand of lights? I have all Truck-Lite LEDs (head, tail, turn and marker) on mine and haven't had any problems at all. Have heard about a flickering issue with some headlights. First Ive heard about fading.

I feel your pain Did almost same thing last year, except in gravel, at a full run. After that you could actually see my kneecap. Yea it hurt. I looked those trailers up. Very cool. Thinking about a build also so will be following yours.

Tighten it up without trying to break it off and move on. I agree with fLU & CUCVRUS Ive never torqued a cover either. Also agree with DH that 35ft/lbs seems high.

I see them often for sale still cheaper than a M101A2/3 prices on those are going up.

There is a complete Dexter hydraulic 12x2 set (L&R) on a well known auction site. New take offs Killer price If you already have surge setup your $$$ ahead.

Not just internals. Unbolt the entire backing plate from the Axle and bolt on a complete new brake assembly. You could ether go hydraulic or electric brakes just by whatever assembly you choose. Of course with electric you would also need new drums, etc. Sometimes its cheaper to do a new...

Dexter Axle makes complete backing plate brake kits for the hydraulic brakes. With or without parking brake. Not bad prices. They also make one that's called "free backing". You can backup a loaded trailer and not have the hydraulic brakes apply. On the regular hydraulic brakes you have to...

I think it only fits the 8.3L He will give you all the info.

Isn't that a great feeling when the engine comes back to life?! Did the fresh cab keep the mice away?

Trailer prepped and ready for an approaching ice storm a while back at a remote location. Luckily it wasn't needed. Anytime I have anything in trailer and not connected to the CUCV, the leg is down. Easy, fast, and no worries about tipping. Its free swinging for a reason. Yes it's normal

Yes it is. Cummins makes the correct bracket that bolts right on. Its a one wire setup. Very easy install and your battery's will thank you. Several threads about it. SS member 74M35A2 is the go to guy for Alternators. Great prices and very knowledgeable

Welcome! Truck looks good. Unless there's hidden problems, you did good on the price. I highly recommend replacing the alternator as soon as you can. The original ones are prone to failure and taking out other components with it. When mine fried, it took the Power Control Box and ABS...

Ok Getting two sets tomorrow Thanks

Are the Monroe 32283's the same size physically as the originals? Is the NAPA shock bigger than original? Side by side pic would be great. I want a replacement shock as close to original performance as possible, not just cheaper. Local stores have to order so no bringing old shock in to...

That setup will get you a ticket in all states when it's noticed. And that trailer will draw attention. As mentioned, the chains need to be mounted to frame, etc for it to be legal. That's Federal DOT standard. Edit: Just read your above post. Glad to hear you will be doing chains properly...

The pressure switch on the PCU?

Do you have a pic of the Monroe 32283 next to a shock you took off a trailer?

Glad to hear it! Hopefully you checked and retorqued the flywheel bolts while you had it off. Others have found them loose and even some missing.
