    Top Bows

    Spacing is easy. Center is a cinch, usually a hole there. The others are about centered on each windshield, but favoring the outside. If you are going to get a new top in vinyl, it will have Velcro holders for the rods. Put the top on and see where you have to put the rods. Canvas doesn't have...

    The rods really help. I have nice take offs: Set of three rods $10.00 + UPS. They are a must if you use a newer style cab top.

    No brake lights

    I guess when you say you junped the wires, you took a piece of wire and jumped the two wires to see if the lights would work? This would not indicate no power. You should test the wires either with a voltmeter or a 24 volt bulb in a socket w/2-wire pigtail. Do the test and get back to me. I...

    Will a deuce crack or damage a 4" slab?

    Yes, the T had a LDS multifuel, a strong one but not like the Cummins in the 816.

    Will a deuce crack or damage a 4" slab?

    You missed a good one when I sold my 1953 Diamond T. This truck was in excellent condition and I hated to part with it. I came accross the Cummins and went with it. If I told you the T's price, you'd cry. I did...

    Will a deuce crack or damage a 4" slab?

    It doesn't in person, just came out that way in the pic. Kind of looks like a rolling ad for Aervoe paint, huh? Another view, note the color is not as pink.

    Will a deuce crack or damage a 4" slab?

    Okay on my "off road" creeper. Purchased from Gemplers, but they no longer have them. Might as well show my concrete cracker, too.

    Airpack install ?

    I've never met a master cylinder with a bleeder on it. Okay, here's what to do: About 3/4 fill the master, then make a lot of slow short pumps on the pedal. Leave the lid off so you can see the bubbles on each stroke. Do not press far because that would force air further into the system. A lot...

    Airpack install ?

    Bleed it at the booster (air-pack). I'll add that I mount the master cyl. in a vise, put fluid in and work the piston in it to get most of the air out before I install it.

    Will a deuce crack or damage a 4" slab?

    I've cracked every slab and garage floor I have. Still better than laying on dirt while working on a truck, like I did for about thirty-five years or so.

    Air pack question

    Yes, Jim, conditions here are about the same as yours. Hot and very humid July and August. I get an ocean breeze too, when I go to Ocean City (NJ) :)
