OK what was the finding?

What is a normal average price that would be paid for the heat and A/C in cab unit? Is there any interest in some good fitting aftermarket copies? Tom

you see it says service line. normally has 0 psi, what is in LMTV service line with normal braking.

OK, odd question and someone will probably have to actually do this to see. What is the average air pressure applied to the brake service line to apply the brakes for normal stopping?

no not even close, way to big. and the 3053 is already .78 in 5th. all of them, no matter what year or suffix letter.

Well certainly the gear set is the most expensive but with the few other support parts it just adds up and it is just too much of an investment to do it with no profit. It is a big risk. I routinely spend $20K to $30k on steering parts but they have been selling well enough to encourage me to...

Yes it is official, I have discontinued / sold out of the OD kits. It never was popular enough to be profitable and in the end was a loss. Only ever sold less than 75 kits. I asked for a quote from my gear maker for complete kits but it will be the same story and at least 25 people would need to...

I also thought about doing a replacement system with Arduino. Very simple and variety of displays available to show actual tire pressure etc. I have boards made in China for many of my products and can easily go from schematic to CAM Gerber files if you need it. (control circuit etc, I would not...

here is another good tip, if you ever need a tap, NEVER buy one from NAPA. they are junk made in China and are not even close to sharp. Will not even work as a thread chaser.

I would think it should have redundant safety's since the result could easily be life threatening. I can think of other fairly simple ways to automate the system but this is probably the easiest for most people. Yes a pop off valve and also a close on high pressure switch with a buzzer may be...

it would also be very easy to build an electronic micro computer version to replace a failed CTIS control box. but I agree a manual system is better. it it possible to over inflate with this?

no one says anything about flat towing with shafts in place but I was told that short distance like 35 miles would be fine.

OK, picture this. Take a hub apart, remove all 4 spider gears, remove both big gears, put the cross back is just to prevent oil loss or make 4 dummy plugs with 'o' rings and a flange on the inside to keep them in. Make a hub to mate with axle spline and mount it on the outer cover. Or make a...

And here is the issue!! Assuming this info is correct and it looks right, This is a MD3070PT trans. There is a civi 2 WD trans, the MD3060 and 6th is .65 which would solve the speed issue with 3.9 R&P The 3070 trans is likely the same trans, 6 speed with a lower 1st added making it a 7 speed. So...

This is fun!! The issue for many is that they think of the 14 tooth spider gears as having some bearing on the ratio, they don't, they are just there to compliment the 2 big gears. Now this is where we need someone clever with a 3D printed and a CAD / CAM program to make some plastic gears. BUT...

well I think number of teeth is important but this can not be thought of as normal gear ratios. if the driven gear was 26 teeth and the fixed gear was 22 teeth, the reduction ratio would be less than 2:1 but what would it be? and could it be done cheaper and easier than R & P swap? I also wonder...

yes I know but I am now being told the spider gears control the ratio, they don't

no, that's not how this works. if it was the ratio would not be 2:1 like it is.

the small gears, spider gears if you will, have nothing to do with the ratio. it is 2:1

spider gear size has nothing to do with the ratio, that is set solely by the 2 large gears. how much larger does adding 2 teeth to a already 24 tooth gear make it? yes they would contact different areas of the spider gears, I just don't know it there is room or not.
