    Would EcoHubs benefit from reprogramming Allison shift points?

    I’m loving the 8.5-9 mpg. It would be very difficult to change the program it would be easier if we could find a program already in use by a different vehicle with the same engine and transmission. Probably like finding a unicorn.

    Would EcoHubs benefit from reprogramming Allison shift points?

    It would have to benefit from reprogramming and getting 7th gear back in use. What speed are you able to get 7th gear to engage? I’m in a 2003, with 3.90 and eco hubs. Hit 80 tried to get it to shift into 7th and it wouldn’t so I gave up. My normal top speed is 60 and never want to go 80 again.

    M1078A1 ABS Light on

    For the ABS light check the sensors at each wheel. Sometimes they get pulled out to far and don’t sense the tone ring. Usually just tap them in further. But it has to be driven to clear the code ensuring it senses each wheel rotating.

    CAT HEUI issues, failures and fixes

    I did not have to remove the fuel pump cover in order to remove the HEUI pump. It’s off in the pictures because the rebuilt HEUI pump doesn’t come with the cover so you will need a replacement o-ring for it.

    Aluminum wheels

    Again, in my longer than most actual experience with them. I’ve removed and reinstalled theses aluminum wheels each time torquing them to 4450lbs for servicing and regular tire rotations the threads are perfect. No deformation.

    Aluminum wheels

    That is correct it might look funny but after running these aluminum wheels for 2years and almost 20,000 miles I love them. Plus my CTIS is working with less potential leaks from the wheel hoses.
