Screams not a transmission problem. Lets see that video please.......

Doesn't sound transmission related to me. You say it runs for 15 seconds.... That's quite a while. Will it go into gear and will it move in that 15 seconds window? Regardless - this smells like fuel system to me.

The lighting system is still 12v. Ronmar knows the changes needed to accommodate the VIM and TCM.

The one concern I have is the availability of that unit. Admittedly I run a rare, expensive unit myself but I have a brand new spare and the 300 uses the same fitment as the relatively common 260A dual volt so I can swap to one of those with zero changes to fitment.

Those cans are going to apply something like 2,800 lbs of force to retract against the springs that probably push back with 1400 lbs (back of hand calculation based on can diaphragm and 120 psi tank air, and ~60 psi balancing the springs where you start to feel the parking brakes drag) so net of...

That's not a rave review. Delete the system. Delete the problems. 🤷‍♂️

Perhaps the threads are messed up allowing it to slip out but not back in due to a non-axial force.

Wow. Have not encountered that. Can you disassemble and inspect/post pics of the adjuster? Would like to understand this failure. Some of mine were pretty UGLY with rust and failed seals but it all functioned fine after cleaning, lubing and adjusting. Let me find that pic.......

That 260A single voltage unit - will it fit the 100A mounting? I've never run across that unit. Looks like a HMMWV style alternator. Maybe for the Ambo...... Those are drivers side mount so they mount "weird" on an FMTV. The 260A and 300A dual voltage units designed for the FMTV platform...

Tractors - especially old one's - don't tend to have "suspension" in the normal sense. They tend to have the axles bolted directly to the engine and the drive wheels just sticking out of the transmission and not an actual frame. The suspension is literally the tires. Thus "removing" the engine...

The bags have the bushings inside them...... those must have been used or old stock eh?

Nice. Yeah do that. Get air ride seats if you must have the truck feel like a water bed. No one will argue that these trucks NEED seats. They don't need the cab air ride. The A1R rides essentially the same. It's tough to notice a difference once you delete the coil springs and put some decent...

All some of the reasons the Army deleted that stupid system. It doesn't help ride quality enough to even bother with. Too bad it's more work to delete it than to fix it. Shock bushings are shot. They always are. Rest of the noises are adjustments and lube.

C7 ECM will not run a 3126 (correctly, if at all) either. It would not be better than the 3126 ECM you are using. I wouldn't try that.

Also not hijacking unrelated threads would be advisable if you want anyone that knows or cares to see your question..... "LoneTree" is spot on......, just over in the corner of the vacant lot OTF'n. 🤷‍♂️

Back up a minute - what is your issue exactly? The idler and tensioner pulleys don't get replaced - you replace the bearings in them. And when asking VERY loosely related questions it's best to just start your own thread.

DO NOT DRIVE THAT TRUCK with a 3126 ECM. That engine is likely to be damaged by doing that...... if it even drives which I doubt. I suspect it will be in severe limp mode. Wrong programming for the C7 HEUI system. Different pump, different injectors, different boost control system, etc. C7's...

The gasket is for weapons systems. It's never used on the sheet metal cover. The cover uses one strip of adhesive neoprene foam, and sikaflex. The gasket really is not going. To be helpful here. It's just adding two additional surfaces that need to be sealed and that's just extra points of...

Put the springs on the shoes, hook one shoe on the backing plate and then use the other shoe to pull the spring like it's a T handle. A pry-bar for additional leverage on the shoe is useful.

That's not stock - someone tried. Stock it is just foam tape and sikaflex around the perimeter so it's easy to peel it off for a weapons system. My HIMARS hatch is sealed VERY well since it's designed for the cab to be pressurized above atmospheric. It uses two rows of foam tape and then an...
