1708 and 1939, but those seem to be on even when the computer can't talk to it. I do have the exact same dpa3+, using on a 2007 model

When using my computer with the serial to USB adapter, I have to plug it into and out of the diagnostic port several times before it will establish connect. There are lots of serial to USB adapters of various quality too. It did have a faster and more stable connection with my laptop with a...

I could, but there is no reason to remove the bolt. The clamp can be installed and removed with nut and screw in place, just loosened. Yeah I was very careful about the false start/cross thread not sure what happened on this one, the other 5 did fine. Everything else went together great...

Probably would, he seems like a really nice guy. Problem is I tend to get really focused on a project and don't want to pause progress. It's also hitting 25° here tomorrow by afternoon so I'm trying to complete it before then.

Had one of the clamps strip today :( oddly just a tiny sliver of thread came out, almost like too large of a tap drill used. Not saying that's the case but that's the behavior I've seen from that. Made a mod to the clamp with a nut on the other side (I will also deform threads "Bubba threadlock"...

Was tightening one of the lock clamps on the Eco hubs and felt a snap. Threads stripped. Oddly no thread pieces present besides a very tiny sliver, almost like what happens with a too large a tap drill. Regardless, this will be my fix. Going to crush some of the threads so it can't come off if...

Custom seat mounting plate, 3/16 steel laser cut. Will be welded to seat brackets.

Bearings tend to be standardized, I spec them all the time for work. If you can get an id, OD, width, and type (pictures may be sufficient) can probably find replacements.

Only 5 more to go.... Edit: got 2 more done, hope to finish the other side tomorrow. Had a little goo in the front left hub, looks like someone may have packed the bearing with grease at some point. Machining of the parts was pretty nice, no issues with alignment of any of the bolts and...

Was trying to replace the rubber on the alignment rods using the ones from Midwest military equipment. While the general size is okay, they don't have enough flex to do the job. Had to pull with pliers to get the rubber to fit in the seating groove but it pulls out immediately. The spring they...

Not having any luck reading from the ABS ECU. It seems to connect but seems to give me trash data. This is with a hardware serial port, DPA 3 Plus. Any ideas? No issues with Dana, Cat ET, although the dearborn software errors out fairly quickly.

You can deflate your tires to drop the height of the truck. The CTIS can be programmed as well if you need to drop down lower. You can also used the hydraulic cylinders on the front to compress the suspension.

I mean, CTIS might get you close to that 6" in emergency mode...

Working on the attachment rails for the shipping container, also checking out and fixing the iffy mounting of the aux cooler. Cleaning out tons of rocks from it too.

Just FYi, I have had pretty good luck with the Dearborn 3+ using a serial adapter for everything except the wabco software(win10). Connects but. Doesn't read anything useful, strange. Waiting on a laptop with a serial port to arrive and will try again.

That quick release valve looks different than mine, although that could be okay. When mine continued to vent it was due to leaks to the wheel valve. The hoses had small holes visible when sprayed with soapy water. There are other things that can cause this though, leaks in pcv for example.

Sorry Chucky, it's all bolted back up you missed your chance!

On mine I measured the distance to bump stops and made sure the box is several inches further than that, I forget how much more exactly. I am going to put skid plates on the box in case in a crossed up situation the tires to touch. With smooth plates (probably PTFE) the tires won't really be...

Full day of work on the truck, repairing the crappy fix in above thread. Ground out and welded cracks. Let the kids do some painting as well, they still need practice. They were helpful tightening the bolts though. Waiting for a mcmaster order for the last few bolts but it's basically done...
