I haven't really ran the truck without the trailer on it, other than a couple trips around the block(about 8 miles). It gets to speed pretty good then, takes a couple of miles before everything warms up. Then it will do 62 just fine. Figure it will get a good run in october. I will also...
Figure I was running about 28,000lbs with the trailer and truck. 50-60mph, couple of 40-45 mph hills. Pyro was 1200 the whole way. I might have come off full throttle twice on the way home. About 65 miles one way.
Checked temps when I got home with the heat gun. Hubs were 100-140, rear...
I use a 3512, and 3540. 3540 is a 6 micron, 3512 is 10. I think the secondaries are setup in series, just install the 3512 in the first one, then 3540 in the second.
Will be bringing the M108 for loading/unloading. Don't forget straps/chains if you are moving anything. Also my 8x14 trailer, to be used as table space. Just the right height. And small tractor and trailer for hauling parts around.
Off the top of my head, will add more when I get home...
Recently installed a K&N filter on my M108. Already had the pump turned up to 1200deg. With the new filter, I was able to turn the pump up 2 full turns more, and still be at 1200 degrees. Truck now has as much, if not a little more, power than my M35. M35 is also turned up, but with a stock...
Heck with pics, it was a marathon of work. Transmission has to be out of truck to remove input shaft, that allows you to remove the counter shaft and change gears. On the stock 5th gear, and .71 gear, you can pull the mainshaft out while in the truck. On the .69 gear, 5th gear on the counter...
Bought M35-tom's used overdrive .71 gear set and finally got around to installing it in the M108.
Truck now runs 2500 rpm, 62mph, on stock 9.00-20 tires. When I get the 11.00-20's on, top speed will be 68mph, not that I will drive that fast.
The top speed gain is really nice. It's also nice...

Good job on fixing the airshift. It is possible to take the air cylinder apart on the truck, including removing the piston. But now you shouldn't have to worry about it.
