    M813 engine oil in brake air tanks

    My air compressor is building good pressure, brakes and other air components seem to work fine. When I drain the air tanks I'm seeing a good bit of engine oil. Are their rebuild kits available for the air pump or do you just replace the air compressor?

    Anybody used a spin-on filter adapter on the NHC-250 Cummins

    After I get my spin on adapter I find out there are two different spin on adapters for the NHC 250. Baldwin has two models. One is longer for the early and shorter for the later engine. Are you familiar with the two sizes?

    M813 leaking front axle

    Guys I dug into the leaky side and found a mess. Gear oil had mixed with the grease and made a nasty slurry, the boot was toast also....I noticed the cv joint has ran a bit low in the axle housing and rubbed the housing. I plan to do new spindle bushings. Anyone know which TM has this job in it?
