Bit of catching up to do here. Had a discussion Friday evening about the brake situation. Best we came up with was it was an adjustment issue. So yesterday I completely went through and readjusted the brakes. Tada, no change. At least in pedal travel. Have not driven it yet. May bleed it...

Either way, I'm staying with 5.

Could, but I had a very firm pedal before with 5 in it. So I don't think it would be the cause now. Either still has air in it, or shoe adjustment, or both.

Hoses are US, been on for over a year. Short air packs. If one air pack can do 6 stock wheel cylinders, then one should be able to do 4 slightly larger ones, yes?

No, new rubber all around. No budget for ss. Wasn't like that before changes.

Yes, max 1400 for the rear, 1200 for the front.

Then bring your hairy tail down here and pitch in!:clinto:

Then I turned my attention to some inside projects. Since the pass through door is now installed, I could install the water tank retaining strap. So I got that done as well as finished up the tank plumbing. I glued some rubber liner to the inside of the floor battery compartment door, glued...

Got a productive day in for a change. First off I drove the truck this morning to test the brakes. Somewhat disappointed. Have bled it 'till the cows came home and still seems to be too soft of a pedal. And low too. Shoes are fully adjusted. Also with the larger wheel cylinders should have...

Ha ha, thanks AA. I HAVE to get it all done in time for the Oct. Rally. No sense in driving an incomplete rig all the way up there so I can sleep in a tent.

Next was to get the table hinge bracket figured out and installed. My desired table height to work with my cushion height worked out to be 33 to 34". The top of the sliding door is about 37" high. So I needed to drop down the table hinge bracket, hence the ugly plywood drop down bracket. Not...

Was a slow day today, but feel like I got some important things done. Put up one more shower wall, no pics yet, don't want to jinx myself. Main project was to get the pass through door finished and the dinette table set up. I installed a Yale dead bolt lock and exterior handle. Then framed...

I should be able to make it, depending on if the 109 makes it back from the GA Rally in one operational piece.

Not really looking to add any more rear lighting. If they hit stopped school busses with all of their lighting...

Thanks AA. 3/8" thick. Not sure of gauge. Wanted it to be kick resistant.

Also got well into the pass through sliding door. Made the tracks, lined with felt, and got them installed and the door painted on the outside and installed. Next weekend will be the door stops, handles and the dead bolt.

Whew, tired, still a lot to do, month left 'till Rally. Ugg. Got the brakes pretty much sorted out, at least until I test drive it. Finished the airpack and air tank lines, replaced the front brake line with a new one from the 2nd airpack. Blocked off the tee where front was connected. Bled...

It only covers the inner tail/brake lights, the outer tail/brake lights show as well as the amber turn signals. They all are bright LED's. I will be relocating my amber strobe as well to be seen. May connect the lights on the carrier as well.

VERY fast approaching, for sure! Ugg.

Thanks Rusty. Yes, the rear is better if only one gauge available, but with two I can see if one airpack is inop and which one. I'd think if one dropped out, it would be hard to tell which one. Like to have stainless braided lines into the cab for both gauges, but no time or money for that...
