    MTVR air leak at vent hoses

    When I press the service brakes, I am getting air hissing out of the vent hoses behind the cab. I'm guessing its a torn diaphragm on one of the brake cans. What is the quickest way to diagnose? Wes, if your watching, this pic is for you lol

    Mk23 power steering filter help

    Went to change the power steering filter and I think it's missing something. I think there should be a washer or something holding the filter down. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    MTVR CTIS problem

    I've been trying to diagnose a non op CTIS system. I used the DANA software on my laptop and plugged into the computer. The software says that the pressure switch is "open" even when the tank pressure is full. I pulled the switch and bench tested it and its working. I put a jumper wire where the...

    Damanged planetary hub on MTVR

    I pulled off the hub to replace a bad seal and found this. The best I can tell is the the a planetary gear got hot and seized which spun its axle. The reason I think that is because there were no large debris. I guess a large chunk could have gotten ground up into fine particles or it drained...

    Video of mounting and unmounting a 16.00 on a 2 piece wheel.

    I made a video showing a couple tricks to mounting a Michelin ZXL on a wheel with a bead lock. The hi lift jack and ratchet strap to the rafters is the best method I've found. Sorry for the poor quality video. I'm not the best with a camera https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWAb41hbNHI Here is a...

    M931A2 trailer brake air problem

    Picked up a M322 trailer and hooked up the glad hands with the truck not running. The primary and secondary air gauges showed 110 psi but very little air flow was coming out of the emergency glad hand. Started the truck and then had a lot of flow. The trailer air system has a few very small...

    8.3 compression test

    I searched and didn't see a lot of info about this so I will share what I know. While I had my injectors out I adjusted the valves and checked compression. I was going to use a old hollowed out injector but I bought the proper gauge set. Cold engine, batteries fully charged, all the injectors...

    M931A2 air in fuel

    Went off-roading a few months ago and on an extreme angle I think sucked some air. The truck never died but sputtered for a while. The rest of the day it would intermittently sputter again on angles. Drove it home with a slight lack of power due to the sputter. Came home, change the secondary...

    Alternative tire for the M989 and M747 trailer?

    Has anyone found a good alternative wheel and tire for these trailers? They use a 15.00 X 19.5 tire which is about 40" in diameter that are no longer available. It looks like a 19.5" dually setup might work. BTW this if for the M989 trailer, NOT the M989A1

    5 ton turn signal switch

    I broke the turn signal handle on my steering column. Looked on the auction site and there are a few variants. Will any of them work on an A2? I'm shocked with how expensive they are.
