I still haven't found any big leaks. I raised the RPMS and managed to get the drop axles up. As I drove the truck it build 120 psi. I drained the...
That’s a good idea. I just don’t know if my compressor is big enough but I’ll give it a shot. I found a bendix compressor for $550 but don’t want...
I just checked the discharge line. I cannot find any leaks in that line. When I pulled it off, it had pressure in it after sitting for almost 2...
And I didn't notice any oil in the line going to the air dryer.
Hello, I just bought a 2003 KW T800 with a Cat C12. Its a dump truck with lift axles. The truck seems to randomly not build air about 90 PSI....
I had a spare compressor governor sitting in my garage. So I swapped it out. I started it up and The truck was airing up to 120. The air has to be...
this is super helpful!! Thank you I think I could have a combination of problems. My truck is suddenly not building over 90 psi. But I can’t hear...
I pulled the dash panel and the switches look to be air operated. There’s an air line on each side of the switch. No electrical wiring.
Yes. I let the truck build 100+ psi. The driver that delivered my truck said it took a really long time to build air but it’s building fine for...

You can get a permit here in CO to run 110k on a straight body dump truck. I’m happy if I can run 80k but I still can’t seem to understand how...
Good to know. I was a little worried about what will happen when you raise the pusher axles to back in and dump. That’s when you have some serious...
looks like my same truck but without the dump box. I’ve made the decision that my best option is a quad axle dump truck for the work I do. But I...
Yeah thats a good point. I'm due for front springs and king pins anyways. I've seen some 20K fronts for $5000 - $6000. Which is about what the...
I was thinking that with 80,000 pounds (divided by 5 axles) would be about 16,000 per axle. The mid section lift axles will transfer more to the...
I went to my local DOT port and found out that in Colorado you can get a permit to run 110k on a quad axle dump truck. It has to be a quad and...
How would I tell if it’s positive ground?
Got it fixed this morning. That wire I used for the remote wire was broken. So I ran a new wire and fired right up. Big thank you for all of...
That’s the wire I traced back and it’s broken off. But l can’t find where it was connected to. The other section of the wire is missing. I...
