9 out of 10 times the wedge sticks in the "out" position, keeping your pads spread and against the drum. Caging the brake chamber is only to release the parking spring brake, since that is on with the force of the spring in the chamber and air pressure from your truck pushes on the diaphragm &...
Sounds like the wedge was sticking. I would take the brake can off and clean then grease up the wedge assembly. Had the same issue with brakes sticking. Its a common issue with wedge brakes.
Just got a letter from Gulfway stating they are transitioning from Travelers to Hagerty. I spoke with someone from Gulfway and said Hagerty will get in touch with you for specifics of the new policy. I have to end of Oct for my current policy, so Ill give them a little time and see what...
I have a PH520 on my 923a2. This is the 10 ton version. I used their entire kit but ordered it with a 24v electric over hydraulic pump. I routinely had 7 yards loads of fill and crushed concrete in the bed and it would dump every time. 7 Yards seems to be the limit on a stock bed before it...
I havent registered a HMMWV but my 5 ton has a short VIN too. As long as the VIN is on the title then you should be good to go. The title you have is an official doc and NYS DMV has to honor it. If the first person doesnt help you, I would walk away and then return another day to try someone...
NYS DMV will accept a SF-97 as a title. I did it with my 923a2. VIN doesnt matter since its on the SF-97 and thats a government document. Bring the SF-97 and your invoice from govplanet along with DMV paper work and you should be good to go.
The VT title route is possible but more paper...
Very interesting and sad to hear. Ive been with Gulfway for 5 years with 1 to 2 trucks. I do not have a garage and my plan is good until Oct. Let us know what happens. Kind of frustrating they are pulling the rug out of under us. Ill have to turn my plates in if I dont have insurance. NY...
I will give you my 2 cents. I dont have the elevation you have, which will rob horsepower from any engine but I do have plenty of experience is some bad terrain. I usually have 4000 to 5000 pounds on the truck while off roading. I have been through 4 foot of water, 4 foot of mud, been stuck...
One day before the rally! We have a few trucks arriving and wheeling tomorrow. I will be convoying down with another 925a2 on friday morning. If you see us on I-80, give us a wave!
Happy Friday everyone! We are a week away from the Spring Rasuch Creek Rally, let me know if your planning on attending. We have 8 trucks coming as of today!
Welcome to the green disease from another native LIer!
I dont have any experience with VIC 3 stuff. For my CB head phones I used Rugged Radios. They have tons of communication gear. They are known for baja race gear.
Good morning Everyone,
Good news, Rausch creek is open and we have booked the weekend of June 5, 6 & 7th. The only new rules we have to follow is you need a mask while in the office and around groups of people that are not your family. When you are by yourself or social distant, you do not...
Ive towed a 12 ton tag trailer weighing 5000 pounds with my 2016 ram 2500 with very crappy electric brakes and it was ok to nerve racking. I didnt have the braking capability i needed, even empty.
I did keep an eye open for ideas. Ive seen a lot of rental equipment places have the Ford...
Hey Raymond,
I did see some posts on facebook regarding an opening date being May 8th, lets see what happens this week. Maybe we can still have something in the spring/early summer.
Send me your number and I can keep in touch more easily.

Hey guys, unfortunately due to the current circumstances, I talked with Rausch creek and they are closed until further notice. They have no date of re-opening as of today. With that, I am canceling the May Rausch creek Rally.
I am looking forward to the fall rally in October.
If things...
