Glad it’s fixed

I was asking about the brake booster vent line but thank you

Where is the vent line?

in addition to the above I would pull the drums and inspect all wheel cylinders And go ahead and repack the bearings. it Probably needs new boots up front as well So go ahead and pull the hubs and knuckles replace them and pack axle shaft u joints with grease . Its the only way you will know...

I have a 1953 m108 2,5 ton crane. It has the early timken axles. I’m in the middle of servicing the front axle. When I removed the hub I expected to find the early ball /claw axle shafts . However I found the later style u joint type shaft . I know the inner seal retainer is different for...

removed all 3 today and cleaned them. None appeared functional. Caked and gummed up. Over the next few weeks/months plan to do a complete axle service on all 3.
