Some Dumpbus Updates

Short term solution. The item pictured tests at 42CCA. other one tests at 877. Rated 875.

I look forward to a night drive to see if my other strange symptom disappeared (intermittent voltage drops)

my cousin asked what was wrong with your truck and if we should stay to help you as we pulled away.  i gave her words about it and she laughed at you.

Saw 250 degrees on the ol' tranny temp gauge today. Think some synthetic goodness may be in order for summertime loads.

It was over 90 ambient, I was doing 70+  in double over for hours, with hills, and probably weigh 24-25k. Pretty much worst case. IIRC Eaton says 230 or cooler is where to be. Currently filled with 75w90 dino juice. I should double check specs and see if I could go to a 50w MTF instead. I'd  think a thinner oil would reduce temps too? I may be backwards on that though

So far so good. I think the others were lasting 5-7k before failure? So I should know by end of summer at latest.

Some asshole really needs to fix the AC (again) in this rustbucket pile! Sizzling.
