    deuce horn button

    i got a simlar kit a while ago. i ended up in the same place i was before i got my kit, no operational horn. the recess in the steering wheel where everything fit in was all out of round not allowing the hard composite piece move correctly.

    Front axle question

    i have found that if the axle has one tierod end clamp on each side of the tierod it is a u joint model. 2 clamps means older axles

    brakes

    mine locked up before. my airpack was trashed inside. lots of rust and gunk built up in it. it was an easy rebuild with basic hand tools. i found that opening the service glad hand, drivers side one, would vent and unlock the brakes to move the truck. i was able to drive the truck like normal...

    AVM vs Ouverson: take a closer look!

    not saying that we in the MV hobby dont matter, but randy doesnt need any advertisment or have to try and deploy some seedy sales pitch by attacking another product. lockout hubs and 2.5 ton parts are not the only things machined in his shop. he could prolly stop making any 2.5 ton stuff and...
