Did it throw codes like the pics I posted?

it did throw some codes, but I dont remember them. nothing like you have going on though

i had a main battery cable from the battery to the starter that had a bad spot in it. a real hard corroded section of the big red cable going to the starter. no crank.

2012 CHU

does it have 3 air buttons? 

a CH with a good aluminum frameless has about the best empty weight around

Ready Mix Plant   NW corner of Sauk trail and State.   Officially South Chicago Heights.   We bought what was Miller Ready Mix.  

hope you're driving a prius! That's a hell of a commute

hope thats a "performance" X15...the other choice is "effeciency" X15 and they cannot get out of their own way  Good Luck

more frieghtshaker than anything else. like buying a cadillac cimarron instead of a chevy caviler 

my 6NZ cat used 1 gallon every 5000 miles from the day i owned it with 600k till the day i sold it with 950k  never a problem

I know several people who have bought frame rails from here, and are very satisfied with their products

i have seen a few, not many, with the regular rectangle halogen bulb...and not custom jobs at all. Mostly plain jane CH's

White lil money maker.   Paid $2500 for that with a blown C12. 

cam follower bad? usually what goes on those.  t&w and naperville have 4 or 5 petes with the c12, none made it over 500k without a rebuild. I was lucky i guess...my 01 intl 9200 had 644k when i got rid of it

yep naperville exc.  they have a lot, i mean, a lot of old stuff. Not sure how much runs anymore, but they never get rid of anything. Diamond Redimix has several, T&W has one, and Naperville has one. it's my new home, haha. The lowboy truck is pretty nice also for a 1997 T800. The lowboy truck is set up to pull the dump, but my empty weight would prob be 40K, so I use the spare R model. As for the trailer...it's an old axle frame trailer with a dierzen body on it...not sure anybody wants that!

I’m at the South Chicago Heights yard.  Sauk trail and State st. 

thats quite a commute everyday, isn't it?!?

HilArk is the name in benton now, they make the dump boxes. HilBilt is listed on the clement website as their brand. dunno? All i know is the trailers are definitely different. Not a lot, but just enough

http://www.clementind.com/

hilbilt trailers are built by clement, if im not mistaken.  they aren't the same as they used to be.  still 2 dealers around here. Amston trailer in WI, and HCI in McCook IL. I think Hilbilt still makes the dump truck bodies, but not the trailers.
