    Some conversions are known to be over the axle weight limits. You can address the tire issue by converting to larger tires but that does nothing to deal with the other components that were sized for the axle weight limits. I know that is not what you might want to hear.

    The 85 PSI pressure for the drive sounds very reasonable and I suspect the tag could be less. The lowest pressure for the 315 tires listed is 80 and if it is calculated the needed tag axle pressure could be as low as 70. But with the 80 PSI being the lowest listed weight it is probably best to use that pressure.

    Your steers definitely need to be inflated to the specified limit because the weight is at the limit.

    Jon and Tom,

    Thanks for addressing the time-out feature. It’s much more user friendly now.

    I added a map item back in July that never showed. I have a couple of more to add. Let us know when additions can be made as I’m sure your web guys are still drinking from the fire hose.

    If it’s an electric 12v Microphor 220, your problem is the Flapper. You should be able to see the flapper in the open position, I don’t see it in the picture.

    Mozilla Firefox here and I guess it’s smarter than I as it remembered the login info. Safari sounds like something you do in the desert. Keep up the good work Boys and sorry I started this mess (post). I just don’t like change. The rest is wunderbar..

    I guess no bites. I called the service manager the next day, so it is covered. I was concerned the roof AC unit might catch on fire the way it way acting.

    Isn’t there a little ‘ol school that wears orange down in that part of the country? IIRC some dude named Manning played there.

    I almost spit coffee out on that one!

    Does this format support quotes? If you want to reply to a specific post or portion of a post?

    Don’t believe the “They all slobber out the drain tubes”. Bought mine with 50,000 miles on it and never spit a drop and I use high idle all the time when sitting. That was 6 years worth of ownership. Start of the new year when new bus barn got built here in Central Texas drove it over and noticed the drops when I went to check OTR for freon. Got worse on 2 or 3 shorts trips and everytime. Last trip home from granddaughter (125 miles) blew a gallon out. Replaced Check vavles on drain tubes even though they were okay and still blowing in out the tubes. Took to Stewart Stevenson/ San Antonio and they rebuilt blower, set rack and that fixed oil blowby. They don’t blow unless they are getting old/worn out or some other problems. Mine was the blower seal. A little over 87,000 miles now and no leaks on engine. Never have washed motor and still silver.
