    Who made this wheel?

    I took these two-piece OEM split rims and 37" tires off my 07' 1097R1, they weighed between 225 and 350 pounds depending on if they had the runflat insert or not. I replaced them with OEM Dodge Ram 3500 rims (correct offset) and 20 ply radials, what a difference on the road. I also installed a...

    What exactly is this on the + bus terminal? Silicone?

    I just bought an 03' M997A2 and it has various types of clear and white silicon caulking on what I'd call critical electrical-mechanical junctions like the alternator wiring nuts, battery, etc. I also have an 07 1097R1 and it doesn't have any. I am guessing one saw in-theater action and one did...

    2007 M1097R1 all gauge needles flickering/vacillating

    High Performance Seats for M1088

    Hi folks, Im asking if anyone has a source for high performance seats (driver + passenger) for the M1088? I tried air seats at Peterbilt but the seat foundation/air controls made the seat way too tall. Ive made a tactical water tender from a 1998 Stewart & Stevenson M1088 and I need supportive...

    New M916A3

    Hey folks, just weighing in to add to the conversation on the M916A3. I work for the Oregon Dept of Forestry and I just picked my new water tender up from Smith Equipment in Prineville OR, last week. ODF bought the truck through FFP for $750 and we had a 3030 gallon tank, 1000 gpm pto pump, self...
