You know a lifetime more information than I ronmar. I simply found myself following @Shakkles "When i say screaming, basically the turbo is "fully spooled" and overall the engine sound and feels to be the same RPM as "65mph, foot on the floor, top obtainable speed", however in this sitch i'm...

If the turbo is spooled up at no tire go, no tire spin, the torque converter or transmission is not working properly. In our M1078A1 with EcoHubs over 80 mph in 7th gear we are below 2,000 rpm, not screaming, (I may be screaming, though not the truck). After driving screaming at 58 before...

Napa Online (not your local store) will ship them to you, usually free. You likely can find them on Amazon, too. MME is rarely the best price, product, or service—

If I recall correctly the new dual unit requires a new/revised mount plate: the holes are spaced differently? Our local Napa had the old versions when we replaced ours—

Been there, done that—

Unless you install an old controller in a newer truck; then you may run a foul the J1939 circuit instead—

We have both a Plasa and a Dana Spicer unit. Now that we have a Dearborn and awesome computer you set up for us, Christian's is our back up. Even once both are programed as desired the Dana is just simplier to use. Push the right button at a glance compared to push arrows to choose desired...

In post #2 above I attached Christian's manual. Reprogramming is not difficult. Give it a try and let us know what you find—

Did you get your CTIS up and running?

A vibratory acting compactor may be easier to add to our trucks using the PTO to spin eccentric weights?

Summary of what has been shared— Connect Victron 24/24-12 DC to DC Converter input to allow Truck alternator to charge House batteries: Wipers acting up. Dash lighting acting up. Voltage from alternator unstable. House solar charging Starter/Truck batteries. Starter/Truck: 1 bank...

Isn't the point of an isolated dc-dc to have completely isolated circuits? I think a typical isolated dc system would have source hot and ground feeding isolated hot and common to a separate ground. In your case the habitat would have a ground actually running to ground not the chassis (like...

These truck's alternator is grounded to the chassis, battery bank to negative starter terminal then engine block and chassis, PDP is grounded to cab then chassis; no isolated ground wire between any of these. Isn't chassis our main negative bussbar?

At 55 - 60 everything feels smooth and happy. Traffic goes past us and driving is comfortable. At 75 driving is intense, some guy is always wanting to pass though won't or will and then slows down. More stressful on truck and driver. These trucks like to cruise—

Our M1078A1, 3126, WTEC III, shifts into 7L at 82 - 83 according to our Bluefire display, speedometer, Gaia and Spyglass GPS. On flat ground it holds to about 67. The shift points appear to change depending upon how hard you push the pedal, perhaps I am too moderate at the high speeds to shift...

Our 2003 M1078A1 works as @Ronmar describes: no air at rear red gladhand until both trailer (red) and system park (yellow) valves are opened—

NSN 12414551-124 BOLT,MACHINE M20 X 1.5 X 110 NSN 12418158 SPACER,SLEEVE I didn't find measurements for the sleeve. You could measure length and OD prior to cutting, ID will be sufficient for the M20 bolt; or pull the passenger side? They are the same NSN numbers on the M1078A1. So...

Form follows function. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder—
