    I have a good heavy duty plug kit and a can of starting fluid,that’s what I love about tubeless tires..🤔🤣

    I can’t say I have ever saw anything but spoke wheels on 58000 rears,I have 58000 on my cl and run 12R24.5 rubber,what’s the reason for trying to swap it out if you don’t mind me asking?

    Sleepy Joe said he has travelled across that bridge many times both by car and train….🤔🤣

    Wow that’s awesome..

    I don’t know of anybody using anything but pai kits when doing a rebuild,I’ve done three In frames myself and never a problem..

    We used to run straight 40 in our older engines for better oil pressure..

    Ok last post on this,don’t want to beat a dead horse,lol,but now I found for a type 24 can there is a short stroke,long stroke and an extra long stroke,who knew..lol
  8. MACKS
    Hmmm,my air line ports are round,the tag says 2 1/2 inch stroke,I thought that was a long stroke but now I found out a long stroke type 24 can has 3.38 inch stroke,now I want to swap them out if I can..🤷‍♂️

    I’ll take a look later..

    I have the type 24 long stroke on the front of my cl, can they be identified by square air line ports also,can’t remember off hand what they look like,they do have a plastic tag attached saying 2 1/2 inch stroke witch is long on the front axle..

    Must be nice to have a new truck with all disc brakes,I guess it eliminates a lot of the hardware we have to deal with on drum brakes..
  12. MACKS
    I can’t see that happening unless the shoe linings are worn out along with the drums,once they make contact with the drums that’s all they can go and that’s as far as the s cam can turn..

    The blinker interrupts the brake light if that helps any,are your brake lights working?
  14. MACKS
    How are the front cab mounts,I remember them especially the driver side taking a beating from all the water and mud thrown up from the tires..
  15. MACKS
    Check all the return lines..
  16. MACKS
    Well it definitely added soot to the oil,even after a fresh oil change the oil would turn black within minutes..
  17. MACKS
    The black smoke will roll only when and if u stomp on the throttle,if u take it easy very little black smoke..
  18. MACKS
    You don’t really need it,but I guess u already know that..

    How’s the oil pressure,does it have excessive blow by?
  20. MACKS
    He states in his opening post the oil pressure jus recently started dropping,what I find interesting is that his idle oil pressure is still the same ,I’m thinking maybe a problem with the oil pump or relieve valve…
  21. MACKS
    That’s a very cool truck..
  22. MACKS
    Tough truck for sure and yeah they ride a little rough but that’s the roads fault..😍
  23. MACKS
    So what’s the specs on those DM’s,58 rears,how long are the bodies?
  24. MACKS
