I've towed my M1028A2 before with the transfer case in neutral with no problems. I have had a LO hub malfunction before so be sure to check the front drive shaft is not turning when the truck is moving before you hit the road.

If the vacuum valve at the injection pump is inop and not passing a vacuum signal to the transmission, it will not shift. You can by-pass the valve to test the transmission. Just plug the line from the vacuum pump into the transmission line. The transmission will now shift. Probably straight...

Looks asleep to me!

I had a similar issue and Jwade took care of it for me.

You remove the small pipe plug on top of the alternator at the back near the regulator and use a small screw driver to adjust the voltage. The adjustment procedure has been posted on SS with pictures. Use a DMM or VOM at the batteries or slave connector when setting the voltage. The dash gauge...

You can buy a weighted tag for whatever weight you want. More lbs equals more $. Just don't get caught with more weight than your tag is good for. As for CDL, that is a state by state thing.

+2 the one on my M929 is counter clockwise to increase voltage also. I think its the same alternator.

If the wheel is removed with the thimble and nut still on like your picture shows, you put the pork chop on the nut and tighten the thimble to screw it out of the nut.

Problem solved!:grin:

It's just scratched.

What do you mean "you guys in Florida don't have winter"? It was in the 60's this morning!

I would get a Harbor Freight 3/4" impact wrench. They are about $99 but you always go to HF with a 20% off coupon. That has worked for all the trucks I have except my M915A1. They put those lug nuts on tight. I picked up a torque multiplier off Ebay for ~$50 for the stubborn nut/thimbles. If...
