I made sure all my threads and surface were immaculate. I used torque wrench, though I am anal about that. That's a rear wheel right? I didn't see the snap ring being trimmed or put back on the shaft.
I am never 100% of anything in life...
That being said, there is 24v at the magnet with the loadbank turned on. It's not retracting. I also used a separate 24vdc source, with everything else off, straight on the magnet, its not doing anything at all...
I took that as an indication it's the...
My loadbank I've had for several years quit working last weekend. Today, I had the time to open her open. All the basics check out. Checked the contactor. Moves freely and there is 24v at the coil, but it's not kicking in. Little electromag give up the ghost? Very carefully with isolated...
Would anyone have info on how to reset the Dip switches on the back of the Speedo in a A0 truck to get correct reading again? Right now, it shows exactly half the actual GPS verified speed, which of course makes sense.
Not that I can't quickly double the speed read in my head, but still, it...

I have done two sets balanced with Antifreeze, first the original G/Y and now my ORDs. ONLY drawback is you will loose it, if you air up/down a lot. I don't, so tires stay good for several years at least.
Yeah, I'll let you know. I plan on driving it more now, with the Eco hubs. I usually daily drive a HMMWV most year round, so I am used to military vehicles...
I put a quart in which is what my instructions said.. On the rear, I had not put the drain plug on the diff in, and I noticed when I put a quart in the hub, it was enough to flow back to diff. Just a little trickle though. Truck was perfectly level on concrete pad.
So my Eco Hubs are mounted. I still need to relearn transmission, since it feels like all my shift points are now wrong, but other than that, I am super impressed. Took a 20min quick test drive, accelerates to 65 fairly quickly (GPS verified, I still need the correct setting on the switches...
