No seal is supposed to be there. It's a machined fit individual to that screw and that head. I have heard of people putting an o ring or copper crush washer under it to stop the leaking. I don't know how effective that would be.

Granted I haven't ever used gl I'm going to reserve judgement on iron planet until they have been selling surplus for a while. Then I will judge their quality based on their track record of sales and customer service. Or you can run around screaming the sky is falling.

I realize this. I have a desiccant filter on my shop air compressor for my plasma cutter. You are supposed to be able to put it in the oven and dry it out. Turns out that's a total waste of time. Yay! But my cutter is a tad bit more expensive than a new desiccant cartridge. I guess what I'm...

Yes I agree. It seems to catch all the nasty stuff. But, the desiccant filter reaches a point it won't absorb water anymore. Not really sure why.

You need to investigate why your engine won't turn over with the trans in neutral and the clutch engaged. Your starter should have no trouble spinning the engine and transmission over.

You can get more life out of a dryer than 2 years. However, if your truck sits for too long it can ruin the desiccant cartridge. It needs the hot air from the compressor from time to time so it can dry out and purge.

Drop that air pressure a little more and see how you like it. A deuce isn't heavy enough to need that much tire pressure.

Glad you found the problem.

Welcome from east of the red river.

Is it your master power switch clicking or the 3 lever switch? If it's the master power clicking or making noise then it could be shorting internally. If it's your 3 lever switch then the clicking is the internal breaker cycling. This indicates a short. Never ignore wire insulation...

My truck has sealed u joints in the front axles. So packing the knuckle full of grease does nothing with this style axle. I also slather plenty of grease on the thrust surfaces of the u joint and all over the short shaft. Then I push a big wad into the backside of the spindle before I slide...

Ya I was just thinking that. I need to look up the amp draw of the heater on my dryer. Which is a haldex pure air plus.

There isn't really much to installing an air dryer. Air in and air out. Then you will tee a 1/4" line into the air line that goes from the compressor to the air governor. As far as the heating element, I think I'm going to splice into the hot wire that leads to the fuel pump. That way it...

Sounds to me like a short.

No pics?

Haven't bought one yet. A buddy of mine has one of their set ups in his deuce. It works really nice. I don't know which model he has though.

I got mine at napa. If they don't have in stock they can usually have it the next day. Don't forget it's an 8 sided nut. Not 6.

If you have a large truck brake shop around your area they can reline the shoes. Or they at least might know who can reline brake shoes.

Absolutely not!!!!! Cornhead grease and similar type greases are what's called a flowable grease. Meaning it is semi-fluid. It will refill any cavities created by the movement of the gears inside the steering box. White lithium grease is designed to stay in place. Meaning once you steer the...
