The inline pump started in 90 but it was mixed production in the beginning. So the motor could end up with either.

I just went through this in NJ a few weeks ago. Probably not the same for PA but the insurance should be similar. I registered my CL as non-commercial at an 80,000lbs weight rating, just like you would do a motor home. I went through Progressive for insurance and the rates were not bad. My truck with any trailer I am hooked to is covered for $560 a year. Again that me hauling my own stuff not for hire.

On my 93 CL I frequently have to adjust the switch on the pump arm. The two screws that hold the switch tend to walk when the air throttle slams shut.

We got a few new tractors with disc brakes all around. The problem is we had to buy new spare rims for all the new trucks. The rims have to have more air flow so they have five holes instead of the standard 2 hole rim. Had a course on servicing them and the trainer said "don't worry if you see the rotors cherry red hot while breaking, its normal!"
They are much easier to work on but I can see rotors are going to have shorter life span than drums.

Im going to be replacing the 5 speed in my single axle r-model with a t1070b. I picked up the trans as a take out and have no lines at all. Now It did come with the plate that has an: air filter,1 regulator set at 70 psi, and 2 of what looks like inversion valves. Now the diagram that is above is the same one I have. My question is how is the plumbing set up with this? The diagram dosent seem to match the valves that are on the plate with the filter. Also what size air line should I be using? 1/8 or 1/4? And from the diagram it seems as the reverse circuit is not at reduced air line pressure like the Dir/L circuit.
E9 manifold bolts

Pull the 2 transmission mount bolts and jack up the trans a few inches and it will help give you access to the lower bolt on the manifold. If flat against the head leave the manifold on as a guide for a drill bit. If there is any stub left your better off welding a nut to it. Most of the time they are not actually seized in the head and they come out with some patience.
