One of my 923's has a similar issue. When I release the parking brake, it loses air in both systems. But as to your issue, when your air pressure drops that low, the rear brakes will automatically apply, and stop the truck. You "should" be aware of that, having a CDL with air brake endorsement...

Hey Richard, tell your SS buddy, if needs more of those tires, they are cheaper in FL!

Make sure you take all your paperwork with you.....registration, insurance, etc.

I added a neoprene door seal between the frame and the dash. Use Armor-All (or similar) on the window seals to keep them pliable. Also added foam door seal strips at the top of the window (at the ends of the hinge) to keep water out. Works pretty well.

Actually, radial 11.00's are cheaper. When you consider super-single rims alone go for around $275; I know you can get G177's for $175 to $200 each.

You need to show me one of those.....

Yeah, I use those. But it is called a beadlock. There is no such thing as a "double" beadlock. You can only fit ONE inside the tire.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the "double beadlock" thing.....

..........Priceless!

They were bought by GL last year. Talked to a rep last week, GL is testing the green iron with them, and will see how they do.

I think you have a combination of issues going on. The air plunger on the t-case may be corroded, not allowing the gear to engage properly. Also, DO NOT use reverse in low range!!

Good call, Carnac. The dump truck seats only have one stringer across the top, with a shorter seat section.

OK, no extra points, but I did make it a full load! :driver:

Looks good [thumbzup]

I mounted stock combat rims on the front, and HEMTT's on the rear. Tracking is almost perfect and you don't end up throwing mud all over your fenders.

Got his number at my yard. Will try to get it for you later today.

He does have a $hit load of old parts....and he is VERY proud of them. Sounds like he's come down on his Hummer prices though. They were in the low 20's when I was up there a couple years ago picking up a goat.

This is how I check for air leaks in the fuel line.....

You might consider something like this (center pic). Could be used as a tool box or storage or even emergency sleeper. Lots of old truck scrap yards have them.

Can't agree with you more, Kenny. Same here!!
