    Need help. M1083A1P2. Ukraine

    Heated Transparent Armor is 24v. Under the passenger kick-panel is where you will find the control module and the circuit breaker module for the system. Remove the panel and the repair manual states the first step is to try resetting circuit breakers CB10X (position 10) and CB19X (position 19)...

    Transmission shift panel/vacuum form protector

    My truck spent it's entire life in the desert of Kuwait and El-Paso and my transmission panel looks/functions perfect. The seats were absolutely destroyed as was a lot of other rubber bits but that panel looks great. It really doesn't seem to be an issue honestly.

    Transmission shift panel/vacuum form protector

    You will have to use something really tolerant of heat because inside the cab in the sun the temps can get way beyond what will warp and melt PLA. You would need to use something like ABS but printing with that is a little more tricky and really should be done with an enclosed printer to limit...

    Charging Failiure

    I agree - wouldn't spend a dime fixing the 100A alternator. They are undersized to begin with. If you had the 260A it's a different story. Go to a commercial 24v and 24v to 12v voltage converter and don't look back. Or do the conversion to the 200A HMMWV alternator if you feel you need the...

    Compressor gear.

    Probably better off calling an equipment/school bus scrap yard or a shop that rebuilds air compressors. The gear is used on many CAT engines.

    New M-1083 owner. So, here we go!!

    This kind of foolishness is why reprogramming the module is the way to go. You can tell it what to do instead of trying to fool it into doing sort-of what you want. 🤦‍♂️ As evidenced by you being able to hit 80 psi in the tires it shouldn't be a concern even with the warning about the A0's...

    85 for highway and leave the others alone. Make sure you have newish tires if you are going to use any setting other than highway. Anything over 10 years old just don't deflate them and start looking for replacements. These tires are VERY flexible and designed to run low pressure (at low speed)...

    Will can do them. So can I and several other people. There are no limitations to the settings. You can program any setting to any pressure you want, and program the speed lockouts to any speed you want. Within the ranges supported by the controller anyway - the settings are not specific to...

    You can program the CTIS to whatever HWY pressure you want or have it done by a member of the forum. I set mine to 85 psi. You just need a J1939 adapter and a laptop - the Dana diagnostic software is free on their web site.

    Drivers side storage locker.

    Not actually. It's a purpose made storage for that specific location/installation.

    Drivers side storage locker.

    Interesting - yeah that is the stock mudflap and mount just like is on my own truck.

    Generally the governors are set to 125 on these trucks. Looks a little low. Get an actual Haldex one that's adjustable. The Bendix one's that are non-adjustable suck. I had a Bendix non-adjustable unit on there for a while and it was causing rapid cycling when cold. After a short drive it would...

    If you haven't rebuilt your dryer do so immediately. Mine had never been serviced and it destroyed my air compressor.

    Mav’s M1088A1 Conversion

    If this was my truck - I would pull the pan and check the pump condition. Given this numbers and the knowledge of the change in pump design..... I would have to see for myself. Looks to be a fairly easy job.

    Preferred engine oil for 3126b

    Currently using an Amsoil heavy duty bypass filtration system: https://www.amsoil.com/p/heavy-duty-bypass-system-bmk30/ But I am intrigued by the kit that Suprman has. I think I shall ask him about that one. I am a sucker for mil spec stuff. :rolleyes:
