I used the harbor frieght 3/4in wrench set and a cresent wrench becuase on mine you have a 9/16 line a 5/8 bolt holding valve on front and a 1 1/8 holding valve on rear axle and the lug nuts are 1 1/2 so you need to have a couple of sizes to get it done. I just changed out the blow out I had on...
Yes you can get cdl with 5 ton b only with only truck, "A" with truck and trailer, you might also check into your state laws. In Wyoming with a "a" or "b" if you get clipped for speeding or doing burnouts in your new green machine it stays on your record longer. So before I got a cdl just for...
I think part of the problem is the alt are such a small amperage in these trucks, With the amount of amp hours the battery's have I guess they figured there was no need to have a high amperage alt. So with blower and headlights and trailer lights more than likely it just can't replenish enough...
Thanks for the input, I was planning on using this truck to pull a trailer and leave it at the sand dunes in Idaho, I have a 35' bumper pull camper that I leave there now but I thought it would be nice to get a dry van and convert it to a toy hauler. I was going back and forth about converting...
Ok so I am no expert I had a heck of a time diagnosing mine but this what has worked for me.
Get the system all up to pressure, Shut engine down and restart truck. Press the highway mode if it clicks then you hear some air moving in the valve body on the floor then the valves outside makes a...
I am looking at getting a 53' commercial dry van trailer, Has anyone pulled this big of a trailer with their trucks? I have a m-146 trailer and the feet hit and it is a low rider in the back. I would like to convert the trailer to a camper and it will only go 400 miles a year 200 miles there...
I had this very same problem from a Nellis truck and just behind the cab is the vent line for the fuel tank on the drivers side disconnect line and pressurize tank. We had a rotten line with many pin holes in it. It was not wet until we pressurized the tank. if no leaks loosen banjo bolt on...
Thanks, for the link, I am not planning on using MRAP wheels, I would rather just leave it alone verses spending a bunch of money for it to have different wheels anyway if that makes sense.
I have been looking in the classifieds and find nothing. You would not happen to have a link for them would you? As for more green stuff she doesn't really care what I get but I am positive I will not get her to ride in one to Vegas again.
What I did was took the ramp that holds the spare tire in place and leaned it up against the fuel tank so it made a little ramp. I then got under it and lifted and rolled and cussed...then cussed some more. I was one hurnia away from leaving it on the side of the road and when I came back by...
No, no one stopped to help with the tire change, it was a pain to do, the biggest problem was getting the spare back on the truck. I got a hand winch to mount on the boom to help in this but I did not have time to mount it like I wanted before we left so I just had to pick it up to put it on...
I was going to do a build like yours but it is a bit short inside for me, so I don't know what will happen with it, as for landing gear yes it hits I planned on pulling feet when I picked it up but the pins were frozen in so I just made no sharp turns, I am sure people thought I had no clue how...
I recently got my m931a2 and when I bid on it I also bid on a M-146 trailer. I won the bid and and got my EUC approved and we were off. Back to Vegas Baby!!!! We had 900 miles each way I loaded up the ol' wagon queen family truckster with the metallic pea paint and optional fun pack, and off...
I am not going to get in a peeing match with anyone but just because you have fuel at filter it does not mean you have what you need for injection pump. The injectors fire at 2000 psi or so... if it is aerated the injection pump will not hit that mark. They are a pop off style injector so it...
+1 on pressurizing tank even a small pin hole in the suction side of the pump can cause havoc. I am guessing you did not put half a can of ether in it. I am sure because it was your last resort you used a min amount that is probably why it did not start. Even with no glow plugs and poor...
Hoping sombody has pics of their soft top and how the plastic is supposed to go in the front channel I pulled it again tonight and every time I try and put thread to windshield it rolls out when I flip top onto cab. What am I missing.
anyone have any pics of the top as it is in the channel on the windshield. my new top is not fitting right. It was missing strip when I got truck so I am not sure how it is supposed to look. Thanks.
