Lizard Skin Sound Control in cab done today.

Eco Hubs are installed! I finished the 6th one an hour ago. I'll start filling with gear oil tomorrow. We'll start spraying Lizard Skin on the interior of the cab tomorrow. I did Dynamat Hoodliner under the engine hump last week, so with lower RPMs, Hoodliner and Lizard Skin . . . it shoujld...

After replacing the stock cab air bags with the Eco Hub rubber springs, my air leaks seem to be gone! It seems that the cab air bags were the largest culprit. I'll see how this goes, but prior to the rubber spring install, air would leak down in an hour or so. Now it's holding at 120 PSI for...

Ron: That hint was VERY helpful. I hadn't thought to look on the rear axle. Sure enough, the air line reaches to a spot on the rear axle where there was a broken off portion of that 45 degree elbow. I hadn't recognized that as a broken fitting. If I ever looked at it, I may have thought it...

The brake and CTIS lines are clear, obvious and not the ones in question "Each axle should have a vent line to the top of the axle housing. There should be the control air line to the power divider on the intermediary axle differential(AWD to 6WD control when mode/6X is selected)" Here's a...

I have an air line at the back of the frame on my M1088 that has been disconnectged since I got the truck from GovPlanet. The air line goes to intermediate axle. There's a T that goes through the cross brace to an elbow with a kind of cap that rotates freely. On the intermediate axle there...

I drove the truck about 15 miles round trip to a medical appointment today . . . my Jeep is in the shop. On smooth pavement, it felt fine. I've got about a mile of that here, then rough pavement. On the rough pavement the truck bounced quite a bit. I'm fairly certain that this is mostly an...

OK, they are now installed. One of the bolts on the drivers side original airbag was difficult to get out. I finally realized that I could move the cab latch arch and I got it out. I'll drive the truck tomorrow and report on how it rides. I've got the HD version of the rubber springs in...

It's obvious now that I have the airbag off. Passenger side is now installed. Bolts on the drivers side airbag are resisting coming off. They are currently soaking with Kroil

Thanks!

Which side goes up? There are slots on one side and holes on the other. What's the best way to install these?

I'm making some progress. The fifth wheel plate is off, the auxiliar transmission cooler is off, the work platforms are off and I've painted more on the frame. I also tracked down and fixed a couple of air leaks today. Here's the latest picture. I'll be out of town for a couple of weeks...

I emailed you the address and FEDEX info. After we make the drawings, with your permission I'll make them available to anyone who wants them
