    Cab Tilt Cylinder

    My cylinder decided to start leaking like a sieve. Is it rebuildable or buy new? Also has any replace one and can share there experience? Doing the replacement with the cab up sounds easier but not safe.

    M1078A1 fuel starting issue

    I saw the timing sensors when I had the pump moved out of the way. None of that is fun to get to.

    Colorado Springs Possible major break down.

    My last major breakdown while traveling was an o-ring failure on the high pressure side of the of the HEUI pump squirting oil out at a very fast rate. Luckily I was only 10 miles drone family in Michigan. Relatively easy repair thank 🙏🏻 you! It took longer to degrease the entire truck. Atomized...

    Colorado Springs Possible major break down.

    Thanks I’ve had a few people reach out from Denver area. So many kind people, I’m grateful for their hospitality. I’m just afraid to drive it that far. And having a total meltdown causing a wrecker service.

    Engine Mount Replacement

    I ended up cutting the bolt off and putting new ones on in the opposite direction. Agree on terrible design.

    Most likely pressure sensor, solenoid, or the HUEI pump.

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    “Launch It” that’s funny! That’s like watching a space x falcon heavy take off. Honestly loosing the exhaust braking effectiveness is the worse and just want it bake. Before I rarely used the brakes. Now I’m always using them.

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    On the WTEC2 there is a manual lockup program option, used for oilfield I think. Auto-manual switch and engage-disengage switch. I suspect there is something similar in the wtec3 programming. That might get you some better slow speed ex brake performance, but you would have to be sure to...

    Definitely sluggish in comparison. The 3.07 gears were super peppy off the start!
