    Can I assume this is the terminal on the regulator on top of the alternator? I see that there is some sort of rectifier in the middle of the truck too. Thanks!

    Yes, you can use other valves, since as you say, they all fx the same. BUT, other brands will NOT be plug and play. You will have to reroute, or add line, etc. Translation: total PITA

    Are you sure that is the same part? I noticed someone else's TPV was different from mine. Is it possible the 6WD trucks have a different valve from the 4WD?

    Air Brake Info and Troubleshooting

    It actually looked like O ring lube and possibly something red? I believe that these got lubed by techs when they stuck. Just a hunch. I have figured out why the valves with vents go bad. The thin plastic flapper valve distorts with time and heat and stays open and allows dirt to enter the...

    Air Brake Info and Troubleshooting

    I found some sort of lubrication in my tractor valve, did you? Did you use any lubrication? Me thinks someone went under truck and injected something in the exhaust port to free it.

    I did not remove the lights to do this. Did they replace the gaskets or use black silicone?

    bon Thanks. Yah, the duct tape is my fav mod. Let's think about this. We have special low silhouette / reflection pain, IR lights, all to prevent detection. Then we put a buzzer on it that alerts half of the middle East to its location? LOL Yes, it is a momentary switch with 3 lugs, though I...
