dripping Fluid dripping down the front tire could also be liquified grease from the front axle or front gear oil. It is not necessarily brake fluid but certainly could be. If you have not been into the bearings and inspected the brakes this is a good time to do so. Let us know what you find as...

Checking brake fluid There is a cap with a square nut on top. You will also have a vent attached to it the same as the top of the axles or tranmission or tranfer case unless you have a hard line coming from it. Some versions were improved and had the vent go up into the r/h engine side of the...

My son works for UPS (for 7 years) and he said that touching a UPS truck on it's way to the crusher is taboo. They crush anything that they are not going to use and no parts are taken off. I wish they would allow parts to come off as they usually maintain their trucks very well but everything...

I have pics at home (am at work) but for a "quickie" look at some of them on G.L. Auction sites. The plate is mounted through two holes on the top of the bumper behind the brush guard and mostly on center of the grill and L/H headlight trim. If the holes are there then you can't go wrong. This...
