  1. Sometimes when someone changes a air chamber they just measure what's sticking out of it and cut the new one to that length which may not be correct, then nothing there works right. That chamber doesn't look very old. Did this issue start after that was replaced ?

    You don't have an MP 7 with two valve covers. Or a 2005 with an MP7. just in case you search somewhere else for info.
  3. Still no looking at pilot pads on hub ? Interesting point about the air chamber too. Any of those good ones usually aren't a very good product.
  4. 😇
  5. I can send you another picture of her if you'd like
  6. This post may be a trap by john kerry or aoc. Careful with responses .
  7. I noticed the return springs too. Not sure what I think of them, but they have me think'n
  8. When ? seems to me anyone in a position to enforce existing law (s) refuses to do so. The double standard of application of law has been shown time and time again.... why would anyone change now ? If anything they're more emboldened to keep on keep'n on. Meanwhile all the other crazy $h!t just keeps getting crazier. Like hunter suing for invasion of privacy or what ever ( and he's gonna win ) At least they're finally going to revisit those pesky water wasting washing machines (again) This administration is taking us right to the 10th century and too many people are loving every minute of it.
  9. Could be a nice high quality Chinese drum too
  10. Something still has to pilot the drum on the hub. If it is the drum though, Paul's idea would indeed work.
  11. Give those journals a little polish job before you're done cleaning. Don't let anyone talk you into any bearings other than tri metals.
  12. Hey.....remember, he may be Irish, but he's not stupid. (and I'm out chase'n snakes with a dude named Patrick)
  13. Drum's not round for some reason. Is it an aluminum hub ? If the pilot pad is rotted there's nothing to pilot the drum weather it's new or in good shape. If you're at the point of throwing parts at it ? drum and linings on that wheel end.
  14. Unreal. Yet it's happening.
  15. That's the part they're looking for. Not the tie rod. These were a treat back in the '90s even. YIKES
  16. The two fruit cakes on the ends actually make kim ung dung's haircut look good...... and manly
  17. Plow frame ??? Anything that falls under severe service usually doesn't have much recourse as far as warranty. Face it, you're eat'n this one.
  18. I personally don't like the extra on it. That truck was lazor straight and in unbelievable shape. Someone loved it. And there's all sorts of custom grille stuff somewhere.
  19. Here's a Superliner with some extra grille bling .
  20. Yeah, it'll be a fantastic present for his leg hump'n buddy xi for his reelection .
  21. It'll be so much easier for them to export it to china from Alaska.
  22. Didn't Hunter just sell a painting.... Alaska Wilderness ?

    Shop Talk

    I once saw on Nick's Garage, he ran some engine on the dyno with a three barrel carburetor 🤔
  24. Once the bronze or bar itself is worn...... those seals don't do much anyway. Jack it up to unload the suspension , and grease it until it purges then do the same thing with the suspension holding the truck up. A working truck ? This should be every week at the latest. Anyone remember Hendrickson RT ? pretty much the same principal . Jojo makes an interesting point about the saddle in relationship to the trunion stand. If you pay attention to what he's talking about it's a lot easier to just put bushings in when you see that (or even those cheap saddles that come with a bushing) and extend the bars life.......so that way it'll still be ok by the time the legs get rotted .
