    Newer style gauges/switchwork?

    I think the OE gauges look "right" for the trucks, I can get modern gauges that LOOK like the OE gauges, as long as the gauge/s works, I see no need to change them, if not broke don't fix it, also the OE switches have been here since the first M series, they almost always work, my 43 year old...

    Spring Brake Chamber Final

YES they are dangerous if you do not know what you are doing, but KNOWING...

    M-813 5 ton won't downshift

    From talking to him, I think his problem is that his RPM is NOT dropping, for what ever reason, sticky peddle, bad or no return spring, sucking air are the three main reasons for not dropping RPM when the foot is removed from the peddle, in this case, I think it is one of the first two.
