OP was worried about single circuit failure. Would the pinion brake not work even a single time to prevent him from hitting something? I think it is a perfect emergency brake.

Winter is almost over, I'd just ride it out. Investigation into the anti-gel stuff shows it is mostly alcohol, and it can starve the injection pump of lubrication. Each their own, but I don't use it.

I know not what you asked for, but my M925A2 weighs 24,500lbs, and stepping hard on the brakes will put everybody into the windshield. I have not learned the brake part yet because mine work well, but maybe you should check to see if there are any adjustments to be made, and also pull the...

Few other options, feel free to take the good ideas or just shoot them all down, but it is fun to think creatively: -An SS member in OH is swapping out his juice 5T axle ends for those from an M939 series, so going to air brake. I don't think he has started yet, and thanks grendel for the...

For me, I'm wanting to go all electric solenoids for hydraulic control, can then do wireless remote easily on them. From there, remove cab control tower for more room in cab, I often have 3 or even 4 adults in there. Good point on the engagement concern. It can be easily aleviated by...

Exhaust heat no problem, can insulate. Issue is height clearance. It crashes hard into it by 2". Air cylinder may work?

I'm particularily interested in the air or electric shift. I confirmed it is availble for the M939 PTO, but it appears to hit the exhaust pipe closely overhead. The cable lever cover is the lowest profile.

Not too many Segways here, Lad. Most are 6 wheelers, diesel powered (almost back on topic!).

Never met him. At least I bought you lunch at the Yacht Club.

I just told you to charge it, twist all the wires together, and turn it on. Apparently it worked.

Wow, nice compressor bracket!

Not too bad of a morning, just trying to help keep a standard format of clarity and decent writing. Really no sound reason to make either unnecessarily more difficult than need be. There is a lot of stuff in your signature. You are asking if you should run your engine stock or modified. I...

We have no idea what you are talking about. If it is an 8.3L like we are going to guess it is, it is kind of rare that those parts are needed. Are you sure they are expired, and how do you know? If you want to be back up running for the lowest cost, on the fastest path, and most reliably...

I'm not against it, just don't understand how it is done. How is the tank vent handled? Easy to say block it, but do people really do it? Just blow more air in than what the vent can relieve? Makes sense if so. OTR (Over The Road) trucks typically have cylindrical tanks. M939 tanks are...

It is. I never understood how people pressurize the fuel tank. Isn't it vented? Also with it's large surface areas, even a few PSI would blow a wall of it out. The more I think about the potential leak areas of this filter, the more I don't like it and want to remove or replace it with a...

This we know. What is the top one for? I have only found one use for it so far...

Simplistic compressed air temp can be easily calculated by the Ideal Gas Law. PV=nRT. n and R can be considered constants for simplicity, so then we can see that pressure x volume = temperature. This is a basic approximation, but if you take a sealed can of air, and squeeze it super fast to...

Zexel is Bosch's Japan division. Not a knock off. Commonly found on Kubota, etc..... I'm still guessing he has a slight air ingestion, and would also not build delivery pressure due to it. Did he mention if the suction side hoses were replaced? Nearly all are leaking by now if not.

I have not checked the TM, but the only way this canister will drain from the bottom valve on my truck is if I depress this top mounted Schrader valve to actually allow air into the system.
