No, and those switch settings I suggested for the eco hubs do not appear to be correct either. They were derived with a chart, that trial and error by someone using a GPS for comparison has shown to not even be remotely correct for the speedometer and the pulse per mile used on the A0…
If your current speedometer switch settings are, 1101100101
The new dip setting from the charts for 1/2 the input frequency/calibration number for eco hubs should be 1011001011 or 1,3,4,7,9 & 10 switched on…
The A0 CTIS uses the same pulse signal as the speedometer.
I suspect it is un-conditioned pulse info right from the xfer case sender as i have seen nothing in the little bit of WTEC 2-3 programming i have seen that indicated that it was adjustable/scaleable in the TCU.
Yep, no ctis warnings anymore untill ypu hit warpspeed. The CTIS controller may be able to be reprogrammed.
I forget what year/model truck do you have?
Thanks For the report.
The only place 2x hubs are a benefit is if you are trying to start and move a VERY heavy weight up a very steep incline In 1st gear. Everyplace else they really are a hindrance.
Removing them also removes the ~10% of power transfer loss those gearboxes incur in...
Yea I havnt found that spec either:)
I have seen a GM spec, 300HP@2600 RPM and 732FT/LB. So guessing ~715FT/LB for the 290hp...
The 1079 curb weight is 18,834, but that includes 1000# of crew and fuel weight. Fitted out for camping maybe just over 20K? Lets say 22K...
715FT/LB nets you...
Keith, that wasn’t really the point I was trying to make, he could have gone a lot slower, even down to a crawl, because it appears he had the torque he needed to do so on that slope. Like in sand and snow, a little momentum can help carry you across fluctuating traction, but it doesn't last...
Sounds like you exceeded peak torque RPM, so you had torque to spare. The real test would be to stop on the hill then start again, noting the engine RPM at which it just starts to move again. I have a 3116 so that is where my math is mostly based around. I have not been able to find an...
Thanks!
I think the transmission is happier being more heavilly loaded. I suspect the pulse width control programming was never quite right or even optimized for the 7.8:1 axle ratio. Since I started playing with one of these and its hard shifting(mine is a cab and chassis at ~14K), I have...
