Thanks I thought you had purchased 3 different types for mating the 2 parts of your wheels (Hutchinson, McMaster Silicon, McMaster Buta-n). Which did you end up using?

Thanks for all of the research! Any user experience with different oring mfg / materials?

Anyone know if the CTIS on the hutchinson wheels use the part kits as the "stock" FMTV CTIS valves? Thanks

Hi - going a different direction with my 1088 and would like to attach a bed from a 1083. But need some info to prep the 1088 for it. 1) Understand that the 1083 has extra set of frame rails that give the bed a bit more clearance. What are these rail made from? Channel? Anyone know the...

Hi Has anyone connected in a charge regulator (Mastervolt or other) into the 24v leg of the regulator for a dual voltage Niehoff? Feels like it should work, but would appreciate and thoughts or instructions. A little background. Trying to upgrade my alternator and use it to charge my...

FWIW purchased the SPX kit 300140 and rebuilt by air/hydraulic pump. Cant remember from where. It had all the parts I needed and some better left alone. There are less inclusive/expensive approaches, but it can drag out the process if you get in it and find you need other parts. I've...

Found a good shop. Shifts like butter. PM me is you need a name.

Wish I had one. Best I have is the number in the photo, but that doesn't seem to provide any solutions with a search.

I reached out to Bendix - they confirmed that it looked like their valve but said they couldn't match the part numbers. The guys at MME sorted me out with one. Photo attached. Also replaced the braided air line off the compressor back to the dryer which was in sad shape. Seems to be...

Little more tracing. Found the protection valve. It is by my air dryer, just inside the frame.

Will do!

Bit more information. I pulled the valve. It looks like it is some variant of a Bendix TR3 inversion valve. Not what I expected given that the "standard" inversion valve in place to the driver's side of the Anti-Compounder The part number on the side is 5004546 or 7883. Appreciate any...

Thanks. That's what I thought at first based on location. But the flows don't seem to match. I'd expect the PPV to have and output back to the trailer connections, but both of these seem to run towards the front of the truck.

I'm tackling some leaks on my air system. Attached is a photo of some bubbles coming off a valve attached to the side of the Anti-Compounder for the rear axle. The truck has set for about 30hrs and it is still bumbling. I don't see this valve in any of the TMs - although most of the TM I...
