Place parking brake lever (2) in release position. Turn adjusting cap (1) counterclockwise to fully disengage parking brake.
Loosen nut (10) and turn adjusting screw (11) to set clearance of outer parking brakeshoe (9) and brakedrum (8) to .015 in. (.381 mm) (A). Tighten nut (10).
Loosen jamnut...
The inner and outer shoes are set at .05 or 1/64 of an inch with a feeler gauge, can't remember the TM but here's a video I produced on the subject with illustrations from that TM.
Found a vice mounted rivet tool from DJS Tractor Parts on e-bay that did the trick on my M813 parking brake, had to modify the setting striker to fit my vice.
This is what I don't understand. You shouldn't need another battery as amps power speakers.
Preamp
Boosts a weaker signal to line level, and provides volume and gain control. Preamps can also include tone controls and filters. They are designed to enhance softer sounds without adding extra...
Those two Skar Amps will require a total of about 200 AMPS of current.
If you're going to add another battery consider two banks of the 12 volt batteries in series on a battery switch. You can run off either bank or both, also gives you a kill switch for the rig.
I meant to say 24V to 12V step down converter not inverter. You should be able to run the the 12V speakers directly off the converter provided the amperage is sufficient. Converters are sold in a variety of amps. What's the total amperage of your 12V circuit?
The other was shipped with 100, I'll drop them to 75. At most I'll haul 2 tons because that's all my license will allow, Class D in Massachusetts has a max of 26000 lbs total hauled or towed...so in effect I own a 5 Ton Deuce and a half ;)
Topped off my tires, for some reason one of the new ones was shipped with only 40 psi. Brought them both up to 100 psi...OK it took a few days because I didn't want to melt my 30 gallon Briggs and Stratton.
Now I'm chasing air leaks in my fuel lines, still can't get her over 1500 RPM
Machined a new backplate for the old shutoff valve to replace the solenoid completely. Also replaced a couple O-rings.
Using the compressed air in the fuel tank method I got her to start and run. Put my tank vent pipes back together and she started right up without the compressed air.
Now the...
Rigged a Schrader valve into the fuel tank vent pipe, my pipe has been patched so much it was no big deal. Used a battery powered compressor to push fuel up to the lift pump. No danger of over pressurizing the tank, air leaks out almost as fast as I can pump it in.
The engine sputters but...
Can the cold start pump on the dash be used to prime the lift pump? One of the 5-ton gang on Facebook thinks it can...time to check the TM's
Damn, forgot the cold start pump draws from the lift pump.
I gutted the old fuel shutoff solenoid on my M813 to turn it into a full manual valve and now the engine won't start.
Figure I've lost prime in the lift pump as this is the first time I've had the shutoff valve side of the fuel circuit disconnected. When I had the supply side off for...
