    Doghead relay mod not needed after July 1985 production

    I know of a few relay failures on post 85 trucks. Unfortunately, people have reported that they have replaced their relays with new stock AC40 and other brand relays, and still had relay failure. What TM is that info in? Does it give a new replacement part number? If it's the same part...

    M37, DMV & Me

    What's wrong with a commercial plate? I have them on my pickup trucks. Always have. Before the advent of 4 door/up to 6 passengers, in pickup trucks, NY always registered pickups as commercial. Why not do Historic, if it's a toy?

    Do we have a informative m35 generator thread?

    Good point Will. When jumping, there is a good chance the cables "jump" under the extra load. Any short and it could cause failure. I would measure from the alt to the battery cable, the cable resistance(each cable). The alt ground goes through 2 cables and the frame(measure at the far...

    How do I use this tool...?...LOL.

    You slide that into the new seal(aready installed in the cover). It helps center the cover so the seal is perfectly centered on the shaft, then you tighten the cover in place.

    Frustrating 809-series sprag!

    The exhaust vent is usually left open. I've seen worse. Most of the time is simply does not make sense what was done.

    Do we have a informative m35 generator thread?

    I think I recall it being an aluminum extrusion(heatsink) and yellow. I don't recall the specs. And I'm not sure other damage does not happen, when it fails. If that's your problem. Does your alt have a ground cable?

    Do we have a informative m35 generator thread?

    Military only. I am guessing you have a bad battery cable and or connection. They go full output when they do not sence a load. Most likely you just need to replace the rear cover/regulator unit. There is a resistor(iirc) in there that explodes. Erik's has them.

    Do you want to figure out why they went bad, or just repair them?

    Quieting down the low air warning buzzer?

    In an emergency situation, you will hardly notice it! Use hearing protection. Some people shut the ignition switch off, while the air builds up(no buzzer that way).

    M1028A3 need key code for older SECM body

    Ah, I'm sorry, I thought you meant for the ignition,aua. Great question, and I do not think it has been covered or answered before. Hopefully another member with one of those trucks may have an answer.

    M1028A3 need key code for older SECM body

    Your sigline says you have 2 of these trucks. You have no key? Or do you just want to know the key cut code? An advanced search in the cucv forum for key code will get your answer in about 2 min.

    Throttle return spring broke!

    There's a good reason Federal Safety standards call for 2 springs on modern vehicles. Maybe a set of throttle springs from a different vehicle, would be a good upgrade to consider for all of us. Like this, http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G1320/ or Dorman 59209...

    how to disable air pressure alarm?

    It has just 1 wire going into it from underneath. You should be able to hear and feel it, while it's on.
