Just checked out your album. I think yours is about as good as they come these days. Was yours a winch model? I don't think yours ever had the radio set up in it.

Find someone local that fixes Allison Automatics. The parts on your truck are not military only.

You are a member of a very exclusive club. I don't recall any posts here about anyone having one of these. I have a SCR399, kinda in the same boat as you, have to figure out things by yourself. Good luck and post some pictures of your rig.

No, you have bad connections. Disconnect all connectors, make sure all contacts are clean, treat with contact cleaner and reassemble with a product designed for electrical connections. Also look for wiring harness damage from rubbing on sheet metal. Disconnect batteries before doing anything.

There were only a handful (20 maybe) of those trucks converted to the Allison. There is no documentation regarding the conversion. Make sure the controller (I think on the cab back wall) is getting power, there may be multiple feeds with both 12 and 24 volts, not sure.

Any immediate needs anyone can help with?

Are you working on a Freightliner M916 or an AM General M916 that has the Allison added? Press up and down on the shifter and report back any codes that are displayed,

Need to train your drivers on how to use it. They are forcing the levers because they don't use the unlock. It is no simple task to hack the harness going into the switch and separate out power in, power out to stoplight switch, power back in from stoplight switch, power out to headlights...

Welcome. You came to the right place. All your questions have been answered here, here is a quick summary: 1. Yup, these are slow. But they are designed to pull a 50,000lb trailer so your water weight should not be a huge issue. Make sure the fuel system is working properly and you have...

Welcome. CTIS will put 55 psi in the tires. Someone has banjo bolts on ebay at the moment.

Yes, you need a resistor. M38s were originally 24 volt with two batteries, but sounds like that is gone. M38s were 1950-52 only.

Number of pins AND voltage.

Send me a PM of where to drop it. Will need a new o ring too. You guys have M35s or the old GMC M135s with automatic? Nobody uses those anymore.

Yup, wrong rim. That fits MRAPs. I have a FMTV rim here in League City you can have.

Are the proper part number relays in each position? They are listed on the PDP cover. Uncle gets this wrong all the time.

I think Fruehauf designed the 104/105 trailer, sort of like Reo did the M34/35. All the super early trailers seem to be Fruehaufs.

That is the dummy coupling and if air is coming out of it, you have air brake problems, which have been discussed extensively on Steelsoldiers.

I like it. The only type of 105 trailer I would want. Is it a Fruehauf? And a set # 7 to boot!

What is a "glad hand handle" on a FMTV? Simp assumed you were talking about a shut off valve.

Should be perfect.
