If you just drive the truck regularly they will true up on their own. Also having a working CTIS system with the wiring mod for multiple highway pressure settings or manual control is VERY useful. You can simply drive the speed you want and alter the tire pressure dynamically while you are...
Yep kinda like power windows and starters. 24v makes them really move but can shorten their life.
Definitely should always be prepared to jumper out a relay if needed.
A 12v relay is going to use a 12v coil and expect a maximum of probably 16v. Sending 24v (or 28v when running) to the coil will almost certainly damage the coil. Maybe not the first time........ but maybe the first time!
Not at all advisable.
Yeah Trucklite makes a lot of the lighting and modules for the military so that would likely be a fine alternative.
Question though - why are we needing a flasher module? Is it bad? :unsure:
No. As with many things in A1R life it is not the correct flasher. The A1R uses an LED capable flasher module. It does say it's LED compatible but it doesn't look like the ones I'm used to.
Couple of items:
Buy all of the transducers from CAT - oil pressure, atmospheric pressure, and boost pressure. Both my oil and boost transducers failed - oil pressure messes with the gauge and idiot light - boost pressure transducer failure puts you in limp mode and the truck will struggle to...
Absolutely do the ECO hubs before driving home. That would be on the very top of my list. 3 extra MPG and engine, transmission, and driveshaft longevity.
A1R's like this already have headliners (even on the turret cover), sprayed on insulation in the cab interior walls, and insulation under the dog-house. As I said they don't really need much help in these areas - not as much as older trucks. It's not where my focus would be for a drive home.
Right on! I'm glad a member scored that one! Saw it on Facebook and advised the seller on condition and value, etc. looks like a score. Myself and @Third From Texas have that exact same truck. So you will make three on this forum! It's a select club. What's your truck serial number? Mine and...
