    EZ-TCU Standalone Controller

    Ok, that makes sense then. Sounds like sometime since you bought yours and I bought mine, they added the speed sensor to the design. My TCU uses the speed sensor for shifting along with info from the RPM sensor and TPS and a bunch of other settings.

    EZ-TCU Standalone Controller

    I wonder how yours is different than mine then? I don't have any issues with the RPM signal, I'm getting that off the CPS and it reads good. Your output speed shaft sensor is on your transfer case?

    EZ-TCU Standalone Controller

    Well, one more update as I found out that in the event you need to use low lock, you are pretty much out of luck without manually shifting from 1st to 2nd and changing the calibration in the app. It appears that the SEN-01-1 pulse generator doesn't generate a signal until you reach about 9mph...

    Geared hub input seal

    Not sure. I'll try to take a look this weekend and see if I can tell but from what I can remember, there is a small flange that goes around the half shaft that might block being able to see anything there. The shaft looked good. I did not notice a dual lip on the seal I took out but I don't...

    Geared hub input seal

    Hello all, One of my input seals on my M998 geared hub started leaking a few weeks ago. I got new seals and shim gaskets and worked on it this past weekend. Unless I am missing it somewhere in the TM, I can't find anything that states how far the seal should be pressed in. My other one was...

    EZ-TCU Standalone Controller

    I thought I would update this thread now that I have been through this just in case it helps anyone in the future. Here are some notes. I had to make several phone calls to TCI to try to figure out how to make this work. I was disappointed in the level of support I got. First off, as I...

    Speedometer keyway

    Turns out after pulling the speedo gear out, the key broke off down inside there so after getting the key out, the keyway actually looks pretty good, square and much deeper than in the picture.

    Speedometer keyway

    It did turn, the pulse generator was getting a signal and then all of a sudden it wasn't. The dakota digital pulse generator threads on there and the key goes into that keyway. As it turns, it generates a signal for the controller. I guess I'll have to pull that part out of there and see what...

    Speedometer keyway

    While troubleshooting an issue I've been working on, I noticed that the keyway for the speedometer key looks like the below picture. They keyway is not what I would call a well defined square profile. It almost looks rounded off. Is this how it is supposed to look? This T/C was removed from...

    Upper A-Arm bolts

    I was trying to do it without removing the a-arm, the 4 bolts towards the front of the vehicle are easy to get to and I was able to get those loose pretty easy using an impact on the nuts on the inside of the frame. The rear 4 bolts are a lot harder to get to and even with the impact on the top...

    Midwest Military Equipment Gauges

    Thanks, I will check them out. Just looking for a GPS speedo and gauges that would match.

    Upper A-Arm bolts

    My rear tires have a bit of an inward camber to them so I thought I'd try removing some shims since I just put on some new tires. Is there a trick to getting that big bolt out? The nuts came off pretty easy but those bolts aren't budging. Any tricks you all have used? I'm about out of ideas...

    Midwest Military Equipment Gauges

    Has anyone tried the gauge set from MME? They are a bit pricey on their site but just wondered if anyone had tried them and if they are as plug and play as it says. MME 6 Gauge Kit For HMMWV/ Humvee (midwestmilitaryequipment.com)

    RPM Signal for 4L80E

    I think the only TPS setting is the calibration, one for idol and one at wot. I don't see anything else to change on TPS.

    RPM Signal for 4L80E

    @Mogman I see you mention using a TCI controller for your 6l80. Is it the EZ-TCU? I'm asking because I'm having trouble with the settings on mine. I can get it to go into 4th but only at lower speeds. When I give it more peddle, it downshifts to 3rd and the mph reading goes down instead of...

    RPM Signal for 4L80E

    Thanks mogman, that worked perfectly. Now I just have to work on settings. It's not shifting quite right.

    RPM Signal for 4L80E

    Interesting. Does it matter which wire gets grounded?

    RPM Signal for 4L80E

    I replacing my 6.2 with a 6.5TD in my M998 a few months ago and we just swapped in a 4L80E. I went with the EZ-TCU controller and I need an RPM signal for it. I thought I could use the RPM sensor in the front of the 6.5td but I don't seem to have a signal from either pin though the controller...

    EZ-TCU Standalone Controller

    Thanks, I did reach out to him in a PM and he responded already. The guy that did the work on your truck isn't with him anymore but he did reach out and gave me a little info. I'm finding conflicting info for the geared hub ratio on a M998. If I need to add the diff and the geared hubs together...

    EZ-TCU Standalone Controller

    I'm in the process of swapping in a 4L80E into my M998. I bought the EZ-TCU to be my controller. Lot's of threads of people having issues getting this set up. If you have gone through this, do you care to share your settings with those that might be doing this in the future, like me? I'm...
