    Air dryer freeze up and other problems

    I think the military used that same alternator on nearly any vehicle that was not dual-voltage. Recommend to keep your pulley until you have the new one in amd working. I think the 250 engines have an alternator pulley that has more stand-off to it than normal, so if you meed to have a machine...

    Air dryer freeze up and other problems

    Your truck should have abs, and therefore an air dryer by the mid axle. I serviced mine once, and I have not drained a single drop of water from any drain after. I actually gave up on opening them because it seems to be 100% effective. Everybody will tell me that is terrible, and that is...

    Air dryer freeze up and other problems

    It is a stupid design. Nothing should be that sensitive. Should have just been a single ignition switch that does both. Alternator replacement with anything other than stock aleviates this issue completely. I shut my truck off in the "wrong" order now just because I can with no over-volt...

    Air dryer freeze up and other problems

    You're in OH? That is GR's and a few other's stomping grounds. You'll need to be changing your avatar pic every 3 weeks, it is a requirement of the OH members.

    Air dryer freeze up and other problems

    Truck was likely shut down in wrong switch order, and zapped the alternator and ABS module. Welcome to the club. Your alternator is probably not working anymore. I sell replacements that do not have the failure characteristics of the stock one, for reasonable prices. You can also get a...
