All my lift axles look like that. Never had a shock issue. I’ve never see the Intraax 250/300L that wasn’t like that when down. That’s the point of that style suspension to lift as high as possible and ride low. If he has issues he needs the limit chains like the severe service intraax AAEDT30k, or shock straps but those always rot off.

2006 379 peterbilt, does it have a module to drive the headlamps?

I just went through a knock-down, drag-out with a customer that insisted that his led headlamps stopped burning because we replace the engine with a long block. Power the lamps from the firewall connector allowed them to burn properly.

No, 2012+ NAMUX 3 has the chassis node that controls all lighting. 2006 is NAMUX 2, unless it was built in 2005 then its old school with relays.

Here is the shock strap list, after they rot off every year or so they will see why everyone else uses chains. OEM is usually the worst option.

I went far enough to prove it wasn't us and told him I wasn't comfortable going inside the cab after it since it was already a losing battle.
The schematics pointed to the MFTS (multi-function turn stalk) as a "module" but I could tell if it was its own device or a device with the stalk as input

This has happened to them 3 times. Think it’s time to stop using 30yr old B blocks or use the external bolts and plates.

Lol can probably fix it with a blow gun. Those turn stalks get nasty. Of course an $80 stock will probably make his head pop off.

That is a great way to tie the block together! In the pictures above you can see were the casting on the block is thin. I am sure the harmonics and vibration of that block with that power it makes just rattles the engine apart.

My question is, will this prevent the block from cracking? Or just keep it from blowing apart like Black Sheep or Jacked Up did?

I don't see how this can prevent block failures, just prevent complete catastrophic failure.

A cracked cam bore is fixable by replacing the block. The Black Sheep and Jacked Up failures are practically a whole new setup.

I'm surprised the euro boy hasn't chimed in to inform you knuckle daggers that the real cause of failure was the compound turbos, too much back pressure on the cylinders!

That, and also, according to him, worthless American junk engines.

The carnage is pretty impressive, but the girdle, even more so.

Any idea on the power that thing is capable of?

I would assume it would stop almost all the issues. It becomes deckplated with that setup so like the super stock pickups the Cyl explosion is happening in the 1” plate and not being contained in the block. The longer rods keep the side load off the liner. All the pressure is up and down and obviously it’s splitting where the head bolts stop. They’re not blowing out the side of the blocks. I haven’t heard of much Cyclone Machine has come up with that didn’t work.


But according to the European mouth breather they’re only making about 800hp and a stock D12 Volvo can do that with TDI turbo.

Not surprised that happened, the same guy use to run a blown 4wd truck w/ OSTPA years ago and if it made 2 passes without blowing up it was unusual.

I guess I didnt think of it becoming a deck plate engine with longer rods. Makes sense.

But I was thinking the issue was the amount of manifold pressure these motors were making that caused the failures. As you mentioned the breakage seems to be at the bottom of the head bolts in the cam bore where the block is the thinnest. This failure doesn't seem to happen to any of the single turbo motors, just the three charger motors.
