  1. 10-4 GW,, I guess the axle shaft didnt look to be 6'' O.D., and obviuosly not square,, like me,,,
  2. It does,, but one good thing I dont see.... is black oil... Know what I mean.. ?
  3. yep... looks clean on the outside, pull the pedal pin and pull the plunger out of the hole and see if it could use some lube,, maint. thingy is all..
  4. all good. just know that those floor mounted treadle valves will stick. everything on your boot lands on the pedal, hinge, and plunger.. any pen. oil on a regular basis will help.. anti sieze it when you have it apart.. you got this...
  5. is the rubber boot still under the brake pedal? just for fun, spray Kroil into the piston inder the brake pedal, with full air pressure on the truck, and use short strokes to work the Kroil into the piston, you may get lucky, or at leaste find the issue, and know where to go to fixi it.
  6. propar, you sure.. XEM's you sure..? Looked like spicer, with 4515's..
  7. well the profile picture is an 'R' model.. definatley possible that the plunger under the brake pedal is sticking..
  8. so 1 brake appication locks the brakes? for how long? do you hear a slow hissing before the brakes reales with foot off the pedal? that valve looks crappy anyway, change it, what condition is the park brake valve. likely an R-12 valve..
  9. I heard that D.E.I. causes folk's to............. D.I.E.
  10. I second GW...
  11. if you back off the brake shoes, you can put a 1/4'' wide piece of flat stock in the gap. if the flat stock is below the pads your good, if not,,, new shos needed...
  12. Hope you are watching night #3 at the RNC,, I see a message across the bottom of the screen saying The Klansman may drop out of the race due to medical conditions.
  13. Exacyly !!!!!! TJC,,, you so smarrrt
  14. Biggest problem I come across on older axles is worn S cam bushing and worn spiders where the bushings are pressed in. If they are badly worn, it will be impossible to keep the brakes in adjustment and working correctly. YEP !!
  15. Well the Commie Puppet has Covid again..
  16. I see a bump on the brake shoe web, likely to be a 4515-Q shoe set, and the wheel seal is like a Natl' 370025A.. GW, makes a good point. Me personally, I'd like to see 4 Maxi's on there, and that is very easy to convert/add on.. 30/30 chambers are common and do quite well.. Jojo
  17. Its ok Duck.. even though im twice his age, he is up the boss' butt.. and im a Yankee, in the south so.... Really no biggie, just typical.. hope the new job is going good..
  18. Thanks Joeh.. works with me at the city,,, 25 years old,,,,, does small excavating work on the side, owns the truck and the equipt.,,,, manual trans,,,, he has a diesel guy so i am stepping out of the picture,,,,, we will see if this truck does good for him for a long time, i only cared because he asked me for some advice, he and our boss man were mumbling some crap about my thoughts, and insulted me as well.. thanks again guys,
  19. Really,,, non of them will, its just who is the lesser POS at te time, and when the truth comes out nowadays, the brains of those learning it are un-educated, and dont care because thier I-Phone is due for an update... When my generation and the 2 before me die off, problem solved for the corrupt.. all the smart ones will be gone..
  20. It's kinda funny to me... I felt firm about my opinion of what my buddy was doing to his (new to him) '97 F-450, when all along it is ME that needs the education.. I guess I don't know as much as I thought I did when I was concerned about burnig valves..
  21. Another shooting right now at the RNC in Milewauki.. of course they are saying not related to the RNC, just a thug trying to Rob someone..
  22. I was instantly surprised by the lack of security coverage on the grounds, and the slow reaction to the spectators who were yelling and pointing at the shooter. My goodness, if you are watching him through a scope, tag the roof next to him to stir him up. or 1 to the lower leg. screw protocol, stop the A-hole, and kill him when the time is right.. I obviuosly have no experience in law enforcement, or sniping, another slow reaction to an A-hole, much like the Uvalde shooter..
  23. Wow,,What a collection of old gold..
  24. Well i guess i will apologize to my buddy. I told him he was pushing his luck and needed to drag a big magnet behind him. However, he is very abusive to his trucks. Thanks guys.
  25. thanksagain GW.. I bookmarked it.. its bedtime for me, but I will look at it thank you..
