Calif. Thats why I got the h**l out of that god awful place. Ritired in 86 and have never been back!!!

Well I orderd a new unit today from Memphis Equipment and then I hooked a air hose to the drain valve on the air tanks and added pressure so i could hear any leakes without the engine noise. I found an rubber air line with a very large leak. Napa is making a new one. Hope i don't find any more.

OK Guys I removed the floor cover and when I shift to reverse air is comming out of That thing between the two cyenders on the sprag.Looks like something should thread into it but I don't know what? Must need new seals??

Air leaks whenthe transmission is in reverse gear. in a few minites will drain tank. Truck is a m-62 wrecker 1957 AMGeneral with continental 6602 gas engine anyone got any ideas where to start ??? Thanks Sgt. Sam
