This could be the an indicator of the air pack going bad.

Mine did as well after installing several new ones from Erik's. I knew I had set the bearings correctly, after some time of driving they eventually broke in and now run the same temp as the others.

I've seen one on a used car lot in Liberty Texas for some time now. I think it's a drop-side with front winch, don't know about the C or D turbo. Liberty is about 40 west of Beaumont towards Houston.

It's still on the lot today so I stopped in, the ASKING price is $7,900 for anyone interested. Stone Oak Autoplex, San Antonio, TX.

I dug out the receipt for the pulley from Cummins, their part number is 3919390.

Stumbled on this today, it's NOT mine. In the Stone Oak area of San Antonio is a 1954 Dodge M37 P/U for sale. The used car dealer has the "As-Is, no warranty" sign in the windshield but no price attached. A bit on the rough side but hey, it's from 1954. I didn't do a check on everything, I'm not...

Got my alt pulley from the local Cummins dealer, funny they had it for the military alternator.

Had a great time seeing you guys today, wish I could have stayed longer. Got stopped by the Bexar County Sheriff at my corner fuel stop on the way home, he flagged me down just as I was leaving the pump. Super nice fellow, wanted to know how he could get one :)

Old thread but comes up in the search topic, mine started doing the same after 7 years of ownership. Pulled the steering wheel button apart and found the wire had come out of the connector under the contact. Just bouncing down the road it would honk anytime that wire touched ground inside the...

My Deuce was last CARC done in 1989, once a year after spring I pressure wash it. From the 1 gallon jug of WD40 I fill a spritzer bottle and just spray it with a light mist. 10 minutes later....new truck. By the afternoon, no residue and dust doesn't stick to it. This has worked for me going on...

For those interested in new Hawker 6TAGM Armasafe plus batteries, I purchased 4 from the very nice people at Power Pro Battery http://powerprobattery.net/ They do list on Ebay as well with a buy now price of $145 each shipped to 48 states. (closed this week of July 4 for vacation) The batteries...

You may find this thread helpfull; http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?82753-MY-Airpack-Rebuild-with-Photos! When I opened my Air-Pak the air piston side had a huge amount of brake fluid in it and it had lost most of it's brake effort, all is well now after rebuild.

I know this is an old thread but still quite valuable. I want to say thank you to the OP and all other contributors to the thread. After years of no problem operation my air-pak finally took a dive. This thread gave me the info I needed to get the job done. I got the kit from Erik's and did the...

I just caught up to this, we aren't welcome there anymore? The show organizers were always very happy we were set up on the side.

. Yes, yes yes! Definitions of what is "Commercial" and what a class B will cover vary from each state. Also the titled weight on an "antique" truck with a certified scale ticket can change the equation. M923A2 with super singles comes in at 22,000 lbs, under the 26,001 lbs legal limit. I know...
