If I were going to run 4 batts, I would isolate them with an isolation switch and charge them with a small DC-DC charge controller or a BIRD relay, like a house battery. That way they would not overload the 100A alt if they should somehow become discharged. but would still receive a charge when...

Yea hopefully they installed the storage plug when they removed the cylinder. i originally thought my cylinder was empty but someone had installed the line under a bracket, pinching it flat and blocking any flow out of the cylinder when i tried it.

I think the P/n is in the parts spreadsheet, you can get them at napa...

look under the battery box cover, there is a diagram there... Remove either the pair of batteries towards the front of the truck, or the pair towards the rear of the truck and any unused connections and jumpers...

It is probably genetic, as the behavior and the practice is often passed from generation to generation:)

In the case of the 3116, There were a whole lot of GM trucks(box and small dump) produced with this engine. In fact, other than what cat decided to use in it’s own production equipment and configure as marine propulsion, nearly all these engines went to GM(Some found their way into ag equip...

Yep, scavenge. Many tractor/equipment filter casings employ a form of spin filtration to spin and settle out the larger heavier particles to a low/quiet spot(scavenge port)… the caution here is that the OEM particle separator output has a flapper check valve on it to prevent any exhaust carbon...

Yea are you trying to merge the 2 systems? Since the pump sets down in the reservoir, the AOP reservoir is maybe almost 1 qt? If you are thinking of using the HPU on the truck system, Most electric HPU’s have pumps way too large for the system on the truck so the restrictors that keep the...

The shunt was part of the Specialized Test Equipment system. The sense terminals on the shunt run to the 30 pin cannon plug by your knee under the drivers dash… pull it… Since I re-orientated my batts with the ground at the front of the box, I was able to re-route one of the cables to or...

Oh no, one of these days I am going to need help getting rid of a body, and you better not even bat an eye!

Yea steel bottle into a brass solenoid valve. hold the valve to apply a little more torque to unscrew the bottle. I would keep it for reasons mentioned… direct metered injection like this is the only proper way to apply ether, and is fully controllable with no real downside…

Yep, I suspect they specced such a large and elaborate filter to deal with WW4 on the lunar surface:)

Well if you start the truck, as soon as the wet tank exceeds ~85PSI, the supply line will start to flow air... For cab suspension, one of the lines is supply pressure from the wet tank, the other line is out to the cab suspension height control valve. The R port Vent is on the back of the...

I guess that would depend on which line it is:)

There should be 4 airlines On the hydraulic manifold. On the rear side of the wet tank is the air brake protection valve(looks like a pressure regulator), which only lets air out of the wet tank if the wet tank is above ~85PSI. After that there is a large hose up to feed CTIS and the fan/power...

Yea the OEM filter is a little overkill for 6.6-7.2L engine:)

I wracked my brain trying to figure a way to hang that massive spare off of the main frame and not off of the habitat. Unfortunately it is just so dam big. I tried to tuck it up under the rear, but it just would not go in there in any way that didn’t seriously compromise the exit angle more...

Yea Matthew, Nice Rack!…:)

The cab hinge pivots and front bushings also have a say in how the cab sets in relation to the arch and latch. Those rubber bushings are also a consumeable item... The cab air suspension is quite a bit of unobtanium, it is hit and miss on finding OEM replacements or parts like bags from Power...

Mmmm smell that balance:)
