    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    With the way my windshield leaks at the bottom of the frame, last time I drove it in the rain I think it rained more inside the cab then it did on the outside.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Thanks for the info. That gives me something to think about if I ever have to tow another vehicle. Glad it ended will for you, it could have been much worse.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    This is just for my knowledge only and not in any way, shape, or form saying you did anything wrong as I have zero expirence towing a MV. I am just wondering so if I ever have to tow another MV with my 923A2 I have some more knowledge. Did you use air from one truck to another for brakes or...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I have been looking at backup cameras too and my thought was to hook it up to a toggle switch. I know there are ways to hook them up so they come on automatically when you put your vehicle in reverse, but I like the thought of being able to turn it on while driving if needed to have a rear view...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    3 pages of bashing someone's ramps? Really guys? Can we get back to the topic of this thread "What have you done to you 5 ton this week". If you would like to talk about ramps then we can start another thread for it. If the ramp thing keeps going a mod may shut the thread down. I understand...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Trying to get ready to take the truck to a 4th of July fireworks show tomorrow so I needed to fix a few things. I had an issue with my emergency flashers, an air leak and not building correct air pressure, and my air horn not working. So having some time today and my wife doing better after...

    nopics The first pic shows what tab to use to get to the upload area. The second pic is what will come up. Even if using your phone use the "From Computer" option not the URL option. Then just look through your phone to find the pic. We need to see the 5 ton swimming pool.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Yeah, I have done some searches and looked at replacing the handles. My first step will be to remove the handles and see if it is the mechanism or just the handle. I'm not thinking it is the mechanism because the handle inside the cab works fine, it's just the outside handle that doesn't work.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I know where the leak is, just with work I haven't had a chance to pull the line and have a new one made. As far as the handle I have looked at some of the threads. I just need to pull it apart and see what's going on. The inside handle on the passenger side works, but the handle outside...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Nice job in the air leak. I have one I need to fix. It will drop my secondary air down to from 120 to 60 in about 2 minutes with the truck off. I know where it is, I just need the time to fix it. Thankfully I have a couple weeks of vacation coming up and should have a chance to fix some...

    Battery installation looks good. Nice and clean install.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I think I will happily stay with my 100 plus degree heat and 15 percent humidity.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I have some vacation come up in a couple weeks and hope to be able to catch up with some projects on my truck as well. Been slow doing anything between work and the 100 plus degree temperatures.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    They are really cool trucks. I have enjoyed mine from day one. Plus living in the desert it gives me plenty of room to have fun and offroad.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    We have taken them to some other spots and been able to get a little more flex out of them. I usually don't get any good pics like this of the frame and axle flex but was lucky enough to have family in a good photo op spot while I was going up this hill. The rear axles will flex enough to rub...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    First off, yes it is very fun. Second, yes I drop pressure before hitting the trails. Pressure depends on what else I may do that day. If I don't want to deal with airing back up for the drive home (CTIS currently inop) I will put them at about 40 pounds. If we are going on some of the...

    Hit the desert for some trail rides this weekend. Just out having some fun.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Then if that doesn't fix it, do just like Ford Mechanic said and get the wiring diagram and a meter and start chasing wires.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Mine did the same thing and it turned out that it was just a bad ground. I personally would check the ground at the flasher relay first (the little black box under the dash by the steering column with only 3 wires coming from it). When I had that issues I was using the stock ground point with...
