  1. It has a an additional power steering pump on the right bank that only works the parking brake check the fluid in that unit, the stick will say check with brakes applied or released. ATF is fine to use. The chambers on the rear operate with a wedge that separates the shoes. Check all fluids, most of the problems I've had with them have been leaks.. Very expensive for wheel cylinders. 2 per rear wheel.

  2. Came out of Lafayette Indiana last night, laid over at the Valero in Jackson Ohio last night and left at 6 this morning, ice all the way to the Virginia line. Sandstone mountain had I lane partially clear. Can't tell you the number of times I broke traction ( empty) just got in 8 hours from Chilicothe area to Richmond. Wish I had better news

  3. Kind of a bad term used for a driver that takes unnecessary risks, like if the roads are slick and everyone is being cautious, and a truck goes by everyone, and slides in the ditch, someone will call him a Supertrucker. Best way I can explain it.

  4. The first of the year started closing on Wednesday, slowest day and it is hard to staff 7 days a week. I won't be there, but if you see Bones he will take you back to the shop where I'm working on the PIE Tanker, also have a White an IH and a Diamond T back there. running out of room, as we keep one area for Functions and parties. Hard to believe as it is 70,000 square Ft. Expansion plans for next year. Hope you enjoy your trip. Let me know, Dave
