    Air Brake Info and Troubleshooting

    The problem first arose as I was backing the truck into its parking spot, something failed and air blew off like if you open the valve on an air tank or something the truck lost all pressure and brakes locked. The air is escaping from a vent that comes out of the bottom of the cab. If you...

    Air Brake Info and Troubleshooting

    I have been reading through all of your posts in this thread. I have actually replaced all three of the valves behind the driver step cleaned the one way check valve behind the lower bumper grill and gotten the air leak to the emergency glad hand to stop. In the above quote you referenced the...

    Do we have an official Bobbed Deuce picture thread? If not, here it is! Post em!

    I have always wanted to try it on a 6x but after building this one it would be nearly impossible with stock suspension. I had to convert from m105 hangers to deuce front hangers to tuck the suspension under the frame. Also the truck is technically over width about 8'8" wide. So if you moved...

    Do we have an official Bobbed Deuce picture thread? If not, here it is! Post em!

    Got her all patched up or mostly. I at least got it drivable for Ga rally. The stacks make for a pretty awesome sounding M35! The black truck in the picture is the before taken no September 13. I haven't seen a dual 395 attempted so I wanted to try it.

    I typically use 105 springs and M35 front hangers. The packs themselves are the same height as M35 fronts. It's just the manner in which you hang them. They allow a little better ride as well. Here is a pic of a spring perch on a truck I'm rebobbing. No U bolts were used... not good! They...

    M989A1 Heavy Expanded Mobility Ammunition Trailer towing question

    I pulled mine with my freightliner though the truck has air out back it was still not ideal. Tractor would attempt to spin all the way into 4th gear under hard acceleration. Tracked straight and world stop on a dime with a touch of the brakes though. The truck really didn't like the lmtv...

    Towing 2 M35's behind a 915

    I'm just going to use my new tow truck... not really mine but the new owner of my old truck sent it to me. That's one bad rig!

    Towing 2 M35's behind a 915

    I was thinking a tank that has no air space left so water can not slosh around. The main reason I thought about a tank would be for ease of moving it around empty. I will probably try to track down a concrete block though. I saw in another tread someone suggested disconnecting the draglink...

    Towing 2 M35's behind a 915

    Yes I'm thinking a block, or a box that I could fill with dirt or water tank and could add water to. I do have two medium tow bars. I have 4 trucks to move so two trips. I am working on a lowboy that will have a winch it can haul 2 m35's but it's a long way from complete. I do not have the...

    Towing 2 M35's behind a 915

    I'd like to flat tow two M35's behind my civilian version of a 915. The truck is a clone she is 430 horse Cummins. I'm thinking of adding a weight over the fifth wheel. I think I know the answer but, can the air over hydraulic brakes work in reverse? Long and short is if I supply air to the...
