    M923 air brake work arounds....

    your plan 2 might work if you have air hoses long enough to reach on to the trailer, if not cage the brakes, if you are having it dropped off on the lower road to your driveway that is not that far and no traffic.

    Just got free UMO

    i run alot of umo, but on long trips i always run straight diesel just because im paranoid about it. if you filter it well you should have no problem. i filter mine to one micron and have had no problems yet. Good luck on your trip, its awesome what these motors can do

    car seat latch system attachment points

    just an update, i finally got the latch system hoops welded in to the springer seat and put the car seat in and it is solid as a rock. I went probably three times stronger than i thought would be sufficient from others advice. this will be mostly for parades and the like and it will be nice...

    filtering UMO oil ( HOW )????

    I have some magnets on the strainer to were the dirty oil gets poured into my waste barrel so that the oil runs over them before going into it. I also have some in my first filter sock. probably overkill and unnecessary but in my mind its only "free" fuel if it doesn't cost a bunch in filters...

    filtering UMO oil ( HOW )????

    the more filtered the better, i also use magnets in my setup just in case, i use drip bags though. I also run a 50/50 mix and no problems yet
