A kinder, more cuddly Military.... LOL

People are fed up with the fed's logic.

Nice!

Any news on this?

Very nice truck. Needs more lights though ; )

For those using the OEM line replacement and want to replace the straight and 90 degree fitting, the cost is about $20.50. I believe the part numbers are 6v8628 and 6v8647. I will double check those numbers tomorrow.

Why would you want to connect it to the head? You want that portion as sound dead as possible. Connecting to the head will increase the intensity of the vibration. I'd anchor off something else and dampen the clamp inside with butyl rubber.

I just put that part on yesterday. It's genuine CAT. After examining it and how it fits, I am going to replace both fitting at each end. I am talking to CAT this AM. The O rings appear flattened / worn down. Metric O rings did not fit theses parts well. Possibly SAE. Nevertheless, I am realizing...

I see you live near me. Which truck do you have ?

Since it is just a round donut, just make a couple out of polyurethane.

Clamp with dynamat dampener maybe.. Love physics. I'm going to test my tube for cracks with magnaflux. Just have not gotten to it yet.

Maybe dampen with dynamat or similar?

Or resonance between the engine and component.

Exactly. Stainless strands vibrating on other strands can lead to failure. Vibration reduction is paramount. So is a low pressure warning system just after the tube.

I second that motion...

Saw this too. Expensive experiment, if fails.

The only end is part #8. The other end is permanently attached. I have looked in the past, but only found the entire unit at around $500.

CAT parts for the 3116 are readily available Worldwide. These engines are everywhere and many are still used daily. Tires could be swapped with Continentals. Allison transmissions, I'm not sure. Cab parts often swap with Steyr, BUT not electrical. Unusual parts would require innovation and / or...

In many cases, there is no civilian truck equipment equivalent for these vehicles.
