    M1078A1 cab and chassis electrical upgrades including AC

    Sorry for your troubles! I don't trust manufacturers specs unless they are major companies with technical details to back it up. I have a 9000 BTU Fujitsu mini split for a 20ft shipping container and it's been able to keep it to my set temp under all conditions we've been in (up to 100f humid...

    From fire truck to MTV

    Now for the non-technical. We've been taking the truck out every weekend and making great family memories. It's rare to find something everyone loves, my wife loves comfort and being away from the chores. The boys love finding new friends to play with. I'm happy they are happy and proud...

    From fire truck to MTV

    Was having some reduced power issues, occasional check engine light (no codes stored) turned out to be a failing atmospheric pressure sensor. Notice it's reading 7 psi (we are at less than 1000ft elevation so should be around 14.7). Unplugged the sensor for the drive back home and had reduced...

    So the MTVR adventure begins

    Installed JW Speaker LED headlamps. If anyone else is looking, the connectors are Metripack size 280. Got a couple wheels from Feltz Tire. Highly recommended. $50 per wheel, $25 per beadlock. Playing in the woods a bit and testing how she does with lockers engaged. "Her visual acuity is...

    MTVR Manuals

    How long is "forever"? It takes a few minutes. There are different cans for all 3 axles, so some more info would help. The brakes on these are nothing out of the norm, rears are s-cam. Some youtube will help in understanding their function. If you find a bad part, someone can likely pull the...

    Odd problem after getting a new ECM and programming it to 370hp A1R

    Took it out on a long drive to our campground, made cruise control more pleasant as it shifted down to 5th a lot less, was able to hold 6th far better. Going 60 with very mild rolling hills.

    Odd problem after getting a new ECM and programming it to 370hp A1R

    Very true. I'd like to see the difference in cooler weather. I'm on the heavy side at just over 30k lbs.

    Odd problem after getting a new ECM and programming it to 370hp A1R

    Oh I'm aware I'm nowhere near redline, this was just the difference in speed in a set distance going WOT. Basically this is my trap speed.

    Odd problem after getting a new ECM and programming it to 370hp A1R

    Reprogrammed ECM with different 370hp flash file (599-4816) and now it is working as it should. It makes some difference but nothing major. I have a consistent distance and best I could do with the 330hp version was 61mph and that was a cool day. With the 370hp, hit 64mph and it's humid and mid...

    Well no go on any of the wash files I have. Looks I need 4406758.fls. Anyone have access?
