Yes. I have brackets for the 3126 and C7. They do not fit the 3116.

The "mechanic" put the wrong program on the ECM. These trucks use military specific ECM programming. Sounds like he doesn't have access to CAT SIS or doesn't understand that the ECM need to be programmed with the correct flash file per the engine serial number and then the military specific...

Sean has a video on his channel of repairing one - it's very simple. Just an o-ring or quad-ring or something from a generic assortment fixed it up.

I don't think you can get away from the physics of the vapor compression cycle. Motors are only so efficient even PWM DC motors. The engine driven compressor can suck down as much HP as it likes and the truck will not even blink. Even 5 HP is 3,728.14 Watts, or 133 amps at 28v. That's nothing...

Need pics of what you are talking about.

Just cut the rest of that off, clean it up good, use some deoxit, etc. Cut the wires a good bit down from the connector - like 4-6" so you can replace the failed rubber with 3M heat shrink w/sealant and install a Deutsch connector as an intermediate connector in case you do need to do the flying...

Yep. Use a BIG socket to pull out the locking pin and replace the seals. Reinstall, fill the system, and lift the cab.

1st is manual selection only. It's used to get heavy loads moving on a grade. With ECO hubs you won't hit 7th gear till about 75 mph. But it will stay in 7th down to about 68. All academic since none of the components care if you achieve the high score on the gear indicator. Engine RPM is all...

In his first post he said it's a 1996

Put the hydraulic system back to stock. Remove the stupid electric bull*hit, rebuild the air-operated pump for a few bucks for the seals. Too bad they deleted the tire crane. Fabulous design and mounted mid-chassis for weight distribution. The transmission controller handles the engine RPM...

Yes I have them made. Sean got a kit from me for his truck:

Well you bought it from an idiot. Excellent. Be wary of anything that tool touched. Lucky he didn't get unalived by some other stupid notion. Soldiers have been killed by the cab. I recall an incident where a soldier got their head stuck between the cab step and the tire. Fatality. The Cab...

Must hit 870 psi injection actuation pressure or the injectors won't be fired. If you aren't getting that then you have a fuel supply or HEUI problem.

IMO the cab support tool should have been part of the BII. That's literally the hood prop!

The TM has technicians support the cab with a "suitable lifting device" but I did the whole job using the Cab Support Tool. Swapping the ram itself is super easy. Just have air in the tanks and with the cab supported in the partially raised position with the support bar you can disconnect the...
