So I've been pondering the past couple days how I want to approach my parking brake rebuild and make it better and I believe I have come up with a solution. Going to remove the manual lever and replace it with a standard air brake pack with spring brake. While I'm under there I'm going to go...

Sweet, now were talking. Thanks. Edit: Just looked at the pictures of one and it looks a lot like a tanker we have at my old FD. Do believe it was a ford too.

Also, I notice when searching for parts I get a cross reference of NH/NT 855. Does this mean NT parts will bolt on?

I guess that's good to an extent. I tried using the cummins online database to search the engine serial number and it didn't recognize the serial number. I guess I'm trying to see other ways the engine might have been configured since I am planning on putting more than parade miles on my 818...

Kinda odd you have turn signals but no brake lights as they are on the same circuit comming off the 4 pin connector. --- Ground --- Tail Lights (Running Lights) --- Left Turn Signal (Brake) --- Right Turn Signal (Brake) Disconnect the adapter you made and use a known good trailer as a test...

So I was wondering what the NHC 250 was used for in the commercial sector? I would like to cross reference commercial parts and obviously need to know what it was used in. I've heard it was used in big rigs by Kenworth, just seeing if it actually was or anything else.

Wife and I plus 4 kids. No mv, driving back and forth.

That is true.

On hood the guys are pretty cool, next time I'm on hood I'll go talk to them and see if he doesn't mind me coming by every know and then to preview stuff.

Well that sucks

I had to panic stop twice doing 60 and I can assure you the brakes on that 450 had more than enough to stop the entire setup. I attribute it more to a skill set than luck.

Great bunch of guys right there :)

Don't worry, truck has been passed on.

In a pinch a chase vehicle can be used in substitute of tow lights. I know not all drivers carry a light set with them.

Uship isn't going to be real helpful as I believe I was the only one to offer military tow away with my 818. It can be pulled with a civi tractor, just need tow lights.

They are grounded, if it is a plastic mount with the built in antenna bracket it is factory grounded. The mirror offers the nearest ground source which is connected to the door then to the body. A ground plane doesn't have to be horizontal to the antenna, just needs to be bellow the...

One down side to using phased antennas is that they are no longer a true omni directional antenna. Phasing antennas are great when you stack them horizontally, not so vertically. The antenna doesn't have to be centered to achieve optimal performance, just installed correctly. At 27 MHz with...

Have you though about running a hood mount or off the back gate? To bad your 200 miles away, could give you a hand with it all.

Do yourself a favor and just put a 102" whip on it. You'll thank me in the long run. No ground plane antennas on cb offer poor performance. Duals antennas need to have the proper phasing cable. Do you have a antenna bracket for military antennas on your truck now?

Push buttons imo are a pain in the butt. Let's push what we want than push it again to confirm. Three lever so much simpler.
