Yeah I was told the headlights were also too high for Europe.If you look at our Cruiseliner theres another set of headlights in the bumper to make them conform to the regulations..... Paul

Yip I suffer that as well....Once its cheap thay have to buy....Girls are the same the world over... Paul

Great artical Paul.Dont know how I missed it untill now.The Cruiseliner sure looks good with the 4 headlights... Paul

Fantastic pictures.I love pictures from back in the day.Only the subject matters not the quaility.Thanks for shareing them... Paul

Yeah thats it in a nutshell..... Paul

This tank appears to feed the control circuit for the parking brake.It is connected through the parking brake lever to the parking brake control valve on the frame.The tank beside it feeds air to the control valve to fill the brake chambers to release the spring brakes.If there is no air in the tank to the right in the pic the spring brakes wont release no matter what position the parking brake lever is in or what air is in the tank feeding the parking brake lever.The regulator in your picture is the same one as on our truck..... Paul

Yes,after traceing the pipe to that tank I realised the tank(the one under the regulator in the pic)had no air in it.The tank is fed from the tank on the right through the regulator.It was then I took it apart and cleaned it.The gauges on the dash showed 120psi on both circuits..... Paul

Yes Paul its a pressure regulator.I know the picture isnt great but the two air tanks in the pic are connected through this valve.the tank on the right feeds air to the tank below the valve.This tank is directly connected to the parking brake lever.I dont have air pressure test equipment but both gauges on the dash showed full air pressure.I removed enough of the dash to follow the three pipes from the lever and found one went to the parking brake control valve on the frame,one went to the trailer brake control and one went to this tank which had no air in it.The only supply connection this tank has is through this pressure regulator.I removed it cleaned it and now everything works perfect..... Paul

I meant to come back and report I found the problem.It turned out to be the valve in the picture which was stuffed with debris...Im thinking it was connected to the air pressure problem....... Paul

Man it was an up and down year for you guys.No matter what we have to just keep going....stay strong. Paul

Just had a good few pints of Irelands national drink...Guinness.Man a good pint of it is gold!!! Paul

Nothing wrong with a little boobage....provided its attached to the right frame... Paul

No you cant waste Burbon like that.... Paul
