No Problem The no holes and no rounded corners were my fault... I told him I did not want the rounded corners or for him to make the holes. He would have done both at no additional charge had I asked him to.

Will make anything you want in the way of a data plate so long as you provide a sample of the dimensions, colors, lettering, and hole spacing if you want them to make the holes for you. (I told them I would make my own holes) I tried "parts wanted" in the SS classified, MV Data plates on the...

No luck with this winch! I tried the vice grips with the hammer and driver on the tip of the vice grips, I tried drilling a hole in the key and threading it (1/4 by 20) so I could put a bolt in the hole and use a slide hammer to try and dislodge the key. I tried a large variety of punches...

GREAT! Will try that tomorrow and let you know. Thanks alot! Gordon Felice

I thought of doing that...but the length of the brake line hose and knuckle housing removal intimidated me , as well as the TM instructions to disconnect the brake line. I knew I would have to bleed the system but was not prepared to have the pedal go imediately to the floor and then stay...

Makin a pressure bleeder Well, a great big thanks for the replies so far. It seems that I should pressure bleed the system thoroughly and then see if the problem remains. I am going to look at threads for doing this. At $20-25.00 cash investment I cannot go wrong. Will let you know what...

Bled the air assist slave brake cylinder Instant no brakes I changed the front axle boots and had to remove the two brake lines from the wheel cylinders. During the boot replacement I inspected all brake components, then adjusted the brakes and bled the two wheel cylinders on the front of the...
