It should run 55 easily. When I got my M929 and first hit the interstate, it ran right up to 60+ mph with no problems. I'm thinking this will be a shorter return trip than I thought. Then I noticed the tach slowly going over 2300 rpm. I realized the tach was dragging so I slowed down to 55~57...

I have run two group 31 batteries in my M818 and also currently in my M929 with no problems.

Right.

Looks like the tires are flattened a little in picture #4. Either the CTIS is set low or there is serious weight on the truck.

If you are not sure or all batteries are low, I would disconnect all of them and charge them individually.

Scott, did you figure out why the solar wasn't charging the house batteries correctly at the GA rally? You have a pretty impressive solar power system. I would think it had to be something simple.

Cadmium plating was mostly phased out in the mid-90's. Lot's of the hardware I spec'd originally as cadmium with yellow treatment was changed to yellow zinc as the cost and availability made the cadmium impracticable. I'm pretty sure you can still get cadmium plating, I think it will be expensive.

I found a video that has a pretty good shot of our group. We are at 13:32. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4NMKEaTSQ4

What size equalizer did you use?

Welcome from Orlando, FL. Nice looking truck.

Yes, get a voltmeter and check the voltage at the batteries. The driver side alternator charges the front battery and the passenger side alternator charges the rear battery. Check the voltage at each battery at idle and also while running the engine at higher rpm.

He has an album with pictures of the swap.

I had the same problem going to the GA Rally this year. I posted a thread on rebuilding the alternator and I also sell rebuild kits and misc. parts for the Delco p/n1105500 alternators. Rebuild thread: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?146703-CUCV-Alternator-Rebuild Classified ad...

Here are some pictures from the Orlando parade. Thanks to ODFever for organizing our participation in this event.

Rotors are not that expensive, send me a PM if you are interested in replacing them.

Sure!

Get the smaller pulley.

I get my parts the same place they do and will custom build a kit to include only the parts you need.

On the way to the Georgia Rally this year my driver side alternator started over charging. I stopped to check it and at idle the charge was normal but the voltage increased as the rpms did getting to 17+ volts. After checking connections I disconnected the B+ wire off the back of the alternator...
