    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Lighting hasn't been hooked up yet so it is still laying loose

    My MEP-803a experience

    I think Light in the Dark had a thread with all the fastener info.

    My MEP-803a experience

    I think I used around 2' of 1/4" line and 12' of 1/8". 3' of 1/4 will do you for sure. I bought the 1/8 by the roll when I was going through units so not positive. I'd get two units out of one 25' roll though.

    Moved my M35 from Richfield Ohio to North Royalton Ohio

    Across 303 then north on State Rd would put you in the center of N Royalton. My 5 ton is down right now so I can't tow it, but I will assist in any way I can.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I'll get some next time I stop by the shop. They are small, only 2" gauges, but I like the all mechanical part

    My MEP-803a experience

    I also use the gates hoses on my units. In my opinion it is a much higher quality hose. I have used Gates hoses for years on anything I work on and have yet to have one fail<br>

    923a2 air dryer makes noise after shutdown

    I was thinking the control was bad. I'll have to look up the nsn and try to find one. Any commercial equivalent? I'm using leak detector that I use on gas and air lines in commercial buildings. As you know there are a ton of lines and fittings on these so it is taking awhile to go through it all!

    923a2 air dryer makes noise after shutdown

    Got a wiper question too. I hear air coming from passenger side wiper motor when truck is shut off too. I replaced windshields today and there is air coming from supply line for a couple minutes after shutoff. Bad wiper control? Sometimes wiper randomly starts on that side when the truck is...

    923a2 air dryer makes noise after shutdown

    I couldn't feel any air leaking anywhere. I have air leaks all over I'm chasing but nothing there. It was supposed to have been a new unit within the last couple years.

    923a2 air dryer makes noise after shutdown

    New to me truck. I'm going through it changing fluids and greasing it. Moved to forward and shut it down to grease u joints. Air dryer was making a noise I can only describe as like a duck quacking. I have driven semis for years and never heard anything like this. Any ideas what would cause...

    Absolute max height of snorkel/davit

    Which truck? My 923A2 is 10'3" to the top of the davit. I'm on 14r20s though. 16s will add another 2 inches or so

    12v gauges in 5 ton?

    Thanks guys! Gauges are ordered. They are Hewitt gauges, but coming with boost and egt from amazon as the price can't be beat.

    Looks easy enough. No pics needed with that little diagram!

    12v gauges in 5 ton?

    Anyone dropped a resistor inline to run a 12v gauge? I found mechanical boost and egt in 12v but not 24v. I think it would just be lighting that would take power and could maybe even switch out the bulb?

    New to me M923a2

    Ok my thinking was correct. I ordered both from different sellers on fleabay. Found the supply lines for 15 and the return for 10. I didn't think that was to bad a deal.

    New to me M923a2

    Thanks. I will check that out. That could be an issue too. Lots of oil has leaked out of that bolt/cap on the injection pump and run down over the power steering. Power steering fluid level was ok. Motor oil was majorly low.
