    Emergency lmtv brake help

    No clue on that one..... You might need to find a forum dealing with trucks that commonly use the AD-9 dryer (from manufacture I mean). Unfortunately there are as many dryer models out there as there are stars in the sky it seems and I don't know of any military applications so not likely to get...

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    ...... I kinda want a bobbed deuce..... let me know if you decide to do that. There were no LMTV's in my unit when I served and I was attached to motorpool where I worked on a lot of M35's, HMMWV's and 800/900 series trucks. I'm in Oregon so not far from you. The LMTV is a sweet platform. No...

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    I edited my post with some pics I found of the destruction. I would still pull the head. You can't assume the condition of the disc valve springs. Could be an easy fix to prevent a very bad hard-down later. Rick

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    There's a LOT of water, and enough oil to make milkshake...... I'm not (yet) an LMTV expert, but one thing I DO KNOW is compressor and compressed air systems. I spent several years working for Roger's Machinery both assembling compressors from parts for the rental fleet and rebuilding recip...

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    Yeah looks like that's a candidate. My only concern is are the mounting straps included? They are included with the original Bendix unit. The original Bendix AD-9 24v part numbers seems to be 65224 (includes mounting bracket and wiring harness)...

    Well it looks like that Bendix AD-9 is a reasonable choice and cheap too. The pic above is clearly an A0 truck since there's no battery disconnect. Rick

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    I think his intuition (OCD) is on the right track. Doing a little searching I would tentatively say you have a (much more common) Bendix AD-9 Dryer or a knock off of same (it appears to be a popular design that is copied): https://www.google.com/search?q=bendix+ad-9+air+dryer If that's the...

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    Ok that does NOT use the cartridge I linked to previously. The one Iinked is for the Haldex unit on my A1R: I would say - based on the lack of matching sand-colored paint that it's been upgraded.

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    My mistake they are $165 from NAPA. About the best price I can find is on eBay at the moment: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fp%2F1929660435 Make sure yours looks like this one. The plastic cartridge that is under the big aluminum dome on the top. Rick

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    There are several different drier designs depending on A0 vs. A1 trucks. It is generally recommended to replace the entire drier with a newer design on the A0 trucks as much better is available now. On my A1R truck I was able to order the drier cartridge from NAPA for like $65 or so. The air...

    Emergency lmtv brake help

    STOP and change/service the air drier. 1000 miles is easily enough to WRECK the compressor with back pressure. If you have moisture in the air system then the drier is not doing it's job. In wet climates they should be serviced every 6 months..... I made the mistake of driving 2700 miles with...
