That makes no sense. So, the ABS might be locking me out? That doesn't sound right? I wouldn't think that ABS would create a system fault to keep you from starting the truck? I'm going to look at the electrical schematics to see if I can find everything that might be in play on this. As far as I...

I've got a bad control box on my M929/A1. I knew it was the control box, but I went ahead and did some electrical tests on the ignition switch to the neutral start switch etc... There is no 566 lead to the alternator for lock-out on this truck. So, I had a spare control box WSU 4001UT which came...

I don't see my latest post, maybe it will show up. Anyway, the lifting eye is right there on the headache cross member.

I can't believe it. The answer is right there and I couldn't see it. See, that why I ask because I was about to weld up a hoist arm with a HF chain hoist. I'll still do the hoist but weld the a hook to the underside of the dump bed head cover, then I can use the hoist for a variety of things...

What is needed to complete the spare tire hoist etc...? There is no boom or hoist winch on a 929, just the flange plate covering the vertical tube. Do you attach the same hoist kit, or come up with something custom? Looks like a trip to Harbor Freight my be the best option. I need to be able to...

Lube Service Well, now let's go down the LO maintenance list per LO-9-2320-272-12 (M929/A1). - drain and refill the hydraulic reservoir. - check drain and top off differential oil (all axles). - grease all points GAA - oil can all points and then some with OE/HDO. - oil all axle & crank case...

Okay, so it's normal. After I asked this question the other day I went out to shift it while parked. It was smooth as ever to my surprise. I guess smooth operation depends on locking and how the gear mesh is lined up for a smooth shift. I found that shift slow and easy works best.

I searched the forum on "hard transfer case shifting" and found a lot of good discussion on the topic. Maybe what I am experiencing is normal operation, but thought I would ask the question again. I'm not sure that I am having any problems but here's how my truck acts when you shift from high to...

So, where is this place? I'll put it on my calender.

Yeah, I need to try my 1" impact to see how effective it is without a larger air reservoir.

Thanks! I'll test it out. I guess I can add a 25 gal auxiliary tank on the emergency side if needed. Does it need to be isolated at the end with check-valve and manual cut-off valve? Of course, don't want it to interfere with emergency brake reservoir. I'll be looking a the TM air schematic, but...

I think I might be having this problem? I want to use the service side air to run some air tools. The valve is open but no air? So do you have to have the brake peddle pressed to release air? I think I tried that, but no air. If so, do I need to create some type of AUX bypass to make a constant...

Go to Harbor Freight. You can put the same thing together for $150.00. And... if it gets ripped-off, you just go buy it again.

Anyone have a suggestions on a heater core replacement other than mil-spec original? Maybe someone has tried a rear passenger heater core from a Suburban or other vehicle? Sounds like my original can't be fixed, but I'm going to get a second opinion. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Yes, that's it! I could not find any explanation for what it was. Yeah, my pumps need a thorough cleaning. The aux pump had a bunch of rusty dry scale inside the strainer. It has probably never been used. The other primary and secondary were so dirty, I can't believe the generator even ran. I've...

Is this a special type fuse attach to each Facet fuel pump? I can't find any information on this part in the TM. Obviously, it is an OEM part of the Facet pump assembly. I damaged the one on my auxiliary fuel pump. They are filled with light oil. Looks like some type of explosive proof fuse to...

I got very lucky on this truck. It only had 17 hrs on it since the depot referb. I thought the engine was broke-in at 40 hours, but it keeps getting better! I have 88 on it now. I need to do an oil change. I bet you can get 8+ yards on that truck with the side-wall extensions. The dumb bed is...

I've though about building some side panels like yours. Nice!

Well, I pulled a huge mulberry tree stump 2-1/2 tons out of the ground, no problem! Hauled off full load of debris. Last week did the cruise night thing. The week before, I packed rear bearings and changed tires over to new 395/85s. Much better ride depending on the tire pressure. 70lb seem to...

Well, after working through all four rear hubs today this is my conclusion to this thread. The problem was a dry bearing. The brakes were fine on all four hubs. I thought the brakes were an issue on the right rear, but after cleaning and going through all the motions, everything was fine. At...
