I probably wouldn't try it. I have heard they may have a different bead style by @simp5782. My preferred method is run $250 395 tires on all my tires and they are much newer than the 14.00s
No just bought the truck, new batteries, charged them, threw them in the truck and went for a 15 mile drive back home and then the tcm died unlocking the converter and spilled fluid out the bellhousing. Would limp along sometimes but now getting a code 25 11 and did all the troubleshooting tips...
I tried to limp my truck home on low voltage and screwed something up with my transmission when the converter unlocked from the controller losing power going up a hill in 6th. Don't recommend
Its a main supply line for air to the ctis I belive. Mine started leaking so I plugged the hole. If you have 4 lights flashing on the controller simply hit runflat mode and it will bypass the fault. If all 5 are flashing there is an electrical problem in the system. If there are 5 lights solid...
Not a bad Idea. Have you tried metric fittings? I know that I needed a metric adapter to go from the ctis wheel valve to JIC to be able to make a hose on the hub side.
Your going to have to take a hard look as I stated earlier if the metal housing on the top front part of the transfer case will clear the cab mounts/ cab. From forums I have read there may not be enough space for it...
I have not seen these labels before. My guess is it was a training truck that mechanics used to familiarize themselves with the platform.
As for service manuals they are currently not available to the public. Even if they were they are only accessible via a special software which is only...
1.27 or 1.28 is the ratio of the stock MTVR Oshkosh 30000 transfer case.
With the Oshkosh 55000 I was looking at had a .98 or .96 overdrive (in the classifieds). That would bring your "transmission ratio" to .6272 from .82. I was looking at a top speed of 83.83 mph at 2000 rpm. At 1200 rpm...
Actually the 395s decrease egt because of less rolling resistance and more torque applied to the ground aka better gear ratio. I currently cruise about 1000 on the highway for reference.
Turning up the fuel on the 8.3 is a very rewarding thing. I did it on my m932a2 and love it. One thing to note however, is that you are going to quickly learn that the 8.3 loves to make heat. I can reach 1300 cruising on the highway (fairly flat but some hills) at 67mph on 395 mv/t and 2 clicks...
I like your point here. Question. I am "can open the hood" kind of guy. I daily drive a m1008 and it has a manual glow plug momentary button. When it is anywhere between 50-65 degrees outside it takes a good 10 seconds of glow plugs to get it to fire off. I have been assuming I should look into...
