Phase II from it to the compressor & solenoid valves - avoiding having to run additional air lines to the controller to get a pressure reading on each spring's inflation pressure. Beyond that, Air Lift has been doing air springs since 1950 and after almost 60 years ya figure they would know...

When I started one of the requirements was that I remove the cargo bulkhead from my van - company were we signing with wanted maximum space for freight - all the way up to the back of the seats if necessary. So that meant that I'd have to heat/cool the entire interior ...... not knowing how...

I enjoy seeing the big tricked out trucks - they are interesting - to some degree they are functional works of art. Having said that, would I ever own one ? Not very likely - I drive a van - largely because I find it easy to drive, manuveur (sp ?), park, etc. I like it - partly because it's...

Kraig, If I ever get a T300 I think I'll probably calling YOU ;)

Not that I'm shillin' for these guys or anything but I got a call a couple of days ago from Lenny over at Camping World letting me know that my sway bar was in. Huh ? I installed it a couple of weeks ago. Turns out Roadmaster sent a second one to Camping World for some reason - so they have...

As I understand it: Occupational Insurance is Worker's Compensation or Worker's Accident Insurance - it's for if you get hurt on the job. In the State of Ohio it's done thru the Bureau of Worker's Compensation - unless, I suppose, whoever you are contracted with is large enough to self-insure...

I'm with a small company and like Dave points out a QC is just not needed. Even GPS phones are not really needed - we just use cell phones entirely. We don't have the same logistical issues a larger company has. And just the costs for installing a QC setup in the office and the trucks is...

RE: Aerocell I voted for a Sprinter as well - I find that it is a pleasure to own/operate/drive for the most part. Now if it only had a bit more cushy ride ...... ;) I gotta agree with Tom though - I think they are built a little lighter than I personally would prefer - and I try and drive...

Hey Moot - that sounds interesting .... do you have a link ? (is it still on EO ?) ;)

The photos have to be 100 Kilobytes or less in file size - well ...... JPEG's (.jpg) do anyways. Try to feed it something larger and nothing will happen.

It's a little different for me - I'm with a small lil' company and most of our loads originate in a specific regional area - which means I deadhead back to the home area quite a bit. Since I have to pay the expense going back anyways finding a load that pays in both directions, even if the...

What's the specs on your International - what kind of payload can you haul ?

I can imagine the frustration ....... The injectors can't be fixed( locked in the motor). ....... Just curious - says who ? If it's a Dodge Dealer you might be better off taking it to a diesel repair facility or diesel machine shop. It's entirely possible that the dealer's motivation is to...

Interesting solution on where to mount it ....... just stick it on top ..... They don't list on the page how much height it adds ....... I'd say it's a good 12"+ at least. Not sure I'd want to give that up .... would make pulling thru the drive-thru at Starbucks unlikely. And I'm not sure...

Phil, You're quite welcome. The Roadmaster part number for the 2500 (04 - 06) is 1207-117. Camping World ought to be able to fix ya right up - it's a very easy install - probably no more than an hour for a qualified mechanic. If your Sprinter really rocks (and not in a good way) I'm sure you...

Today I had a chance to drive the Sprinter under windy conditions. Weatherman was calling for thunderstorms and winds are currently about 20 mph with higher gusts, high winds possible. I took the Sprinter into the dealer - when the Rack & Pinion was replaced back in December they had failed...

I've only put on maybe a 100 or so miles on it thus far and there hasn't been a ton of wind since .. but I have noticed that the body roll and the buffeting from other vehicles has been reduced significantly and it seems to take much less steering correction to keep the vehicle tracking...

A couple of close ups showing the difference in thickness:

Installation of the upgraded sway bar looked to be fairly simple - a total of six steps - just unbolt the old one and install the new one. I'd estimate it took me 2 hours or less and a good part of that was repeatedly walking back up to the shed from the house to get the correct size socket or...

After running and carrying cargo for a little over a month some of the Sprinter's shortcomings have become apparent. Possibly the worst thing I have had to deal with over the last couple of weeks is getting pushed from other vehicles and and blown around pretty badly from the wind. This...
