Re: Spam??

'I noticed that as well, and since I have free time and can check my computer throughout the day, I threw my hat into the ring to see if I could help Mr G and Brian with the site.  I'd love to find the spammers and the robot callers and be able to subject them to being bombarded by their own garbage...

Odd question about the Freedom 20 inverter

'I've got a question about the operation of the inverter (my rig is a 96 Sahara 3044 that was upgraded to the 20) after some oddities last year. I replaced my backup camera monitor with a new 14" flatscreen computer monitor, but last year every so often while going down the road the monitor wou...

Battery cable suggestion

'A suggestion for anyone that's working on their battery cables or their battery tray - take a few extra moments and double check each and every terminal end on the cables.  When I had my batteries out so that I could clean my tray and check everything two years ago, my brother stopped by and was pl...

What tools are being carried to change a tire?

'We are in the planning stages for a long trip in early 2020, and one of the things I'm pondering is getting a spare wheel so I have a mounted spare.  I've already discovered that with a truck size T bar I can lift the wheel and slide it onto the axle fairly easily, and I've got a 30 ton bottle jack...

Steering box question

'My 30' Sahara has more play in the steering than I think it should, leaving me to wonder about the steering box.  It was far, far better this year after dropping the front tire pressures and putting the Centramatic wheel balancers on, but there's still (in my opinion) more play in the steering than...

So THIS is what a Pacbrake is supposed to do!

'I got the new diaphragm for the Humphrey valve on Monday, so this morning went and put the actuator back on after lubing the pivot points and the exhaust valve pivot.  There's a nice flat freeway frontage road not too far away, so it was decided to do the test drive on it and see how the exhaust br...

Pac brake actuator test?

'This year coming down grades, the transmission downshifted when I flipped the pac brake switch but I wasn't really certain that my pac brake was engaging.  I just got home from filling back up, and before I left I put a piece of tape across the arm to see if it moved - and it didn't. Can I use my s...

Stuck transmission fluid level indicator

'We changed the filters on my transmission, measuring that we indeed got 10.5 qts of fluid out, so put back in the same quantity of new TES 295 fluid.  Now, however, my transmission level indicator is stuck on 4 qts low! I drove it for over an hour so know that the transmission was up to temps, and ...

Found why my Dash AC quit

'This afternoon I hooked my AC manifold gauge set back on and discovered that there wasn't anything reading on the low pressure side, and the high pressure side was low.  I put in a can of freon and saw that the low pressure didn't move up at all, and the high pressure stayed about where it was - no...
