I've got one of the newer style brake booster/ air packs and I can't find a rebuild kit anywhere for it. Does anyone know of one lurking about anywhere? Here's what it looks like. (Sorry, no pics of me pulling out what hair I have left!)

I've been having an intermittent problem with one or the other of the rear brakes on my Bob just locking up when the air system is up to pressure (90-120psi). It doesn't do it when I'm driving, though it has left me stuck at a few intersections. We've adjusted the brakes according to the manual...

Does an air actuated front axle HAVE to have air pressure in order to stay locked? I need to lift the whole rear end of the truck, but will have to do the work (rear-end change out) in my driveway, which is at a slight decline towards the front of the truck. It'll be well chocked but I'd like to...

What is the shelf life of unopened gallon of DOT 5 brake fluid. I just got a gallon of NOS, dated 1994. Is it safe to use? (And yes, I did search and couldn't find anything.)

We'e almost finished with our Bob, but I've had to replace thwe hydraulic brake line that runs along the left side of the frame. When bloting this to the tee fitting just under the rear of the cab (left side) I tried to remove one of the other brake lines. I did use the special wrenches for the...

How did you guys do it? (Yes, I did search!) Wrote a more detailed post and lost it. AAARRRGGGHHH!!! SHould the brake lines go in front of or behind the axle? BTW, it hit the ground on all fours today! (The truck. Get your mind outta' the gutter, there's only so much room down here!)

Can a deuce be driven as a front wheel drive? My bob will be ready to move this week but does not have a rear drive shaft yet. I'm sure I can move it around the yard, but what would be limitations on distance, if any? I had my first EUC on an M105 come through a lot quicker than anticipated, and...

I did search for this but found no specific answer. I even had to draw a picture 'cause I forgot my camera today! Problem is that my front spring set did not come with the plates that sit between the axle and the springs themselves. I thought about lift blocks going in this spot and can't find...

Texas heat has finally broken and me and Badga have gotten a HUGE amount of work done (at least for us) in the last two days, but now we need a bit of SS knowledge. Just found out I have Badga for an extra day tomorrow so have to throw a work schedule together real quick. We have the deuce...

I've decided that I'm going to add about 9" to the wheelbase of my bob and wanted to see who else has done it, and why. My decision was arrived at for several different reasons. The first of which is that the project has gotten mired almost to a standstill by an injury and over 2 months of...

After 2 months of fire bans I finally got 'round to torching the rivets on one side of the deuce, sort of my "NO GOING BACK!" point. Woo hoo! In researching the process, I came upon mention of the magnetic drill. I thought I had nearly every generalized power tool but, this was a new one to me...

Hi, Many know my son Badga the Badger, MV crazed 15 Y.O. and partner in my M35A2. We had an M109 box on it for a while, but changed our mind to bob the deuce. It's an '85 AMG, depot rebuilt in '95, and came with a hardtop, Michelin super singles (1100-R20) and air steering. The box is off, the...
