    So just and update to my comment, after taring into the dpf we found residue from coolant the (unit has also poor starting symptoms) (Injector cups) AGAIN forth set for the unit this is the first unit to clog up the dpf with coolant from an injector cup issue for us however Im sure there are more out there so beware yet another symptom of the ongoing injector cup battle!

    That collapses is common ! caused by turbo lag however they should suck in a bit then inflate , you should be sure the filters are clean and installed correctly and yup that coolers a good suspect!

    Just the raydan not the one you have pictured there as I I said the air ride front is quite complex However the ride quality is good a bit on the sqishy side As with any air ride the shocks have to be kepted up on !We have sold mixers a few with the raydan and most often the AMS40T2 ! Both work OK from a customer stand point Usually A simard install If I was doing it I would go for spings stability wise I think having a dump on total air you would feel horribly tippy when dumping Mixers dont have 20 feet of material in the air.

    I'm not hot on the raydan front like the spring set up better the front bag set up is too tecky Use the kiss theory works best !

    We have dozens of raydan here it's ok real fussy to set the ride height raydan both ends? As with almost any dump you'll need to dump the bags to get the load off. We have a half dozen twinsteer mixers with it here no complaints.

    two regens and a crystal sub burn will turn the light off ( IF ) you repaired the problem And IF you can get it to regen we got one right now that wont regen makes to much inlet heat and shuts down We are suspecting The temp probe is toast or the top of the cat is plugged! Will find out today I hate this shit!

    Awesome site truck With out seeing it in person real hard to give decent advice It either has 44 or 55 rears by the look of it Can't make out the rear suspension Camel back I assume I also assume It has a 237m with 6 sp trans ! I sure wouldn't part it out! You got good history there!

    ME TO ! NOT LOL! For the most part it was fixable! MP not so much! One thing about it it will keep the younger folks busy for years to come ! Bandaids and patches!

    Guess its down to acceptable now? In there eyes! So the question now Is the engine still compliant or are we doing the VW thing! ? Kidding the EPA!

    simply a crap shoot ! It dosent happen that often however How often is to often to them? Its still happening ! so are they going to fix it? If it fails after warranty its not their problem!
  13. fjh
    Yup we got a newer Mp 7 and an 14 mp8 in the shop same deal we did an mp10 last year Also had an Mp8 fail after the pin Bandaid job the nut broke! makes one wonder how many failures is acceptable to these people before they repair stuff properly! Kinda like the injector Cup Fiasco !Except WAY MORE expensive!

    If your pulling 38 be happy thats good boost for that engine as pro mentioned if the ecu were able to see what the engine was truely making it would have derated at 33! A good running AC engine with VGT is making that kind of boost your right in the Zone!

    Rev the engine right up a couple of times the vanes sometimes stick!

    When you take the clutch back out then check to see the bolt heads weren't hitting the springs I have had to remove the washers to make things work on occasion As the truck shop mentioned Be sure your gap is correct! how ever if its a mack trans its very hard to see around the clutch fork! We are assuming you are working with a NON solo Clutch!???? Good luck with it! Post what you find!

    There is a possiblity that the separater pins on the internidate plate are not even ! take a 1/4 inch punch and on each preasure plate mounting lug there is a hole put the punch in the hole and tap on it turn the engine and tap on each one till you have done all 4 and see if this repairs the issue! Also if you had the flywheel surfaced the springs on the dapper hub can hit the bolt heads of the crank if to much was removed as well as if you were handed the wrong clutch the damper some damper hubs DON'T fit the flywheel cut out! Just some stuff Ive been bitten by!

    Depending on where your live that box on the under side can be totally green with corrosion ya may want to change it out I don't think it's that pricey

    Physically I believe both diffs fit the housings how ever the axles are hugely diffrent spline wise and your torque bracket mountings may differ
  22. fjh
    Hopefully not a self adjusting?
  23. fjh

  24. fjh
    You don't have to replace the pedal it's a bunch of extra work for nothing just an excuse to charge you for somthing u don't need

    There is a three pole switch on the red trailer button that some times fails lift the centre panel and peak in there see if thats the culpret also make sure the hand valve is not pulled check that first!
