    Eco Hubs 2.0

    Wow. I did watch your video in the other thread, have you done any further diagnostic work? Perhaps swap the planetary hubs back in? Your situation seems to be excessive, even when accounting for the loss of torque. I hope you find something (not expensive or catastrophic) that gets you fixed...

    Air/Hydraulic power unit failure?

    Yes, parking brake is set, however I noticed air leaking from around the parking brake knob. Maybe it's not fully engaged? Which air line are you referring to, the air line (507) on the power unit?

    m-1078 24V on all PPD terminals!!

    No dice on the metal cable tags, someone has been in here and mangled it all up. I was looking at the schematics, which raised the question on how the PPD is supposed to be wired. Given the other wiring issues, I don’t want to assume that is correct
