    Replacement fuel lines

    Yep just the fuel line from the tank and primary is a flare. Really it's not a inverted flare just a simple flare. Inverted flare is like brake line the has the first flare folded in then flared out or double flared. Maybe they went with the easy way to fix with a simple flare tool you can...

    Replacement fuel lines

    My NAPA carries it. As I said above I don't think we should choke down the size leading up to the IP booster pump so 1/2 all the way. I don't see any problem with the copper line that is there leading up to the primary. It is tucked into the frame well. It's the copper line that runs under the...

    Replacement fuel lines

    I don't believe you can go from inverted flair to compression fitting just by changing out the insert, ferrule and crush cap. The inverted flair does not use those fittings and with internal threads big difference. When I do change out to Synflex dot air line when bypassing the FDC I just buy...

    Losing air pressure when emergency brake is on.

    On the tightening of the nut if you ran it down with a small handle wrench and it got super tight you went to far. Your right mdainsd it can only go two ways if the cage bolt comes loose so hold it accordingly and keep children and love ones away from work area. Also it's a good idea to put some...

    Losing air pressure when emergency brake is on.

    I don't over tighten the nut/cage bolt. I inspect the ears on the cage bolt are in good shape. I make sure the cage bolt is locked and hold / twist the end of the bolt till the nut is run up and there is pressure on it so it stays locked. I treat the end cap with the spring compressed like the...

    Cold air intake mod?

    Myself If you are talking about the air filter housing leave it alone. Hook up the air compressor intake to the air box housing for fording and clean you compressor air filter while your there. Best thing you could do I you are looking for something to do is install a air dryer into the system.

    Trouble-shooting the Protective Control Box in a 5-ton

    Was thinking about the moisture that get inside the PCB. The ones I have split apart have had poor sealing jobs that allow moisture to get in but not out. What if the had holes like one on the bottom and one or two on the sides. Use WD40 to keep the inside coted and let the air circulate through...

    King Pin and Spindle Bushings

    Now you can see why I am selling everything as I have lost my mind. Hope I don't forget which one is the brake peddle. Yep it was a plate thing then the flat cap cap or steering arm.

    King Pin and Spindle Bushings

    No blind end. The bushing I remember is installed into the caps.

    King Pin and Spindle Bushings

    Seems like when the bushing is installed in the cap there would be a blind end and only 1/14 inch deep. Don't think a brake hone would work well here. Right tool for the right job is the answer.

    King Pin and Spindle Bushings

    Yep don't forget about them spindle bushings. Lot of people install the spindle and don't add any grease to the inside.
