After a few days of having the truck in storage and after pressure washing the truck I was going to take it on a trip to the gas station. Come to find out that the M1089 doesn't want to go.
Brakes are seized. So I whip out the wrench to gat the caging bolts. But guess what. they are rusted and stuck in their holders. I only manage to get 3 of the 4 of the bolts freed, that are mounted at the rear axle. I also find that one of the connectors is snapped off. It's filled with sand and dried mud. great. I get the plugs out of the air brake chamber and they also are filled with crapp sand and mud. The plugs never been off so I don't know how all this gunk got in there. oh wait the air chamber has round holes in them.![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I need a new connector for the airbrake. it has one push in fitting and two screw fittings.
can you guys help? it's called the 'tee, pipe to tube. according to parts TM. But mine isn't part #8-6-8 01042BA , I have a push in fitting on one side
