    Door Hinge pins

    Never did hear back from OD Iron. I guess either out of business or more of a hobby than a business? Edit to add post #666 related pic.

    Deuce hood weight

    That is a smart modification! But since I'm 6'7" raising the hood is not that difficult for me...

    Door Hinge pins

    Got a link? I can't find ANYTHING on their site. Bunch of dead and do-nothing hyperlinks on the home page, I feared they were out of business! No phone number listed; contact form does not work. Man, that is one broken website!

    Are these still available? Link is not working and I couldn't get the search function on the OD Iron site to work, either.

    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    I'm using a pressure bleeder. I read a couple threads that said leave the brake pedal alone (don't touch it) while the pressure bleeder is hooked up.

    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    I'm sure my MC and airpack work fine, I've been driving this truck for 2 years just pulled the front axles apart to do the boot replacement and in the process also replaced both front wheel cylinders, front brake hoses and 1 hard brake line. So I would think, when properly bled, my pedal would...

    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    Reading the TM on pedal adjustment, it says the pedal should have .25-.5" of movement before free play is gone. Mine goes almost to the floor pan. I don't think it's a pedal issue. I'd better bleed again first, this time on concrete instead of grass, and with practice it'll go better. Also I...

    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    Bled them this morning and while it's not 100%, it sure went a lot better than last time! The pedal stops before hitting the floor, but it's not quite as firm as it used to be. I'll do it again before I take her on the road. The fluid that came out was noticeably cloudier than the new stuff...

    haspin 2011 fall run, hows up for row 2

    Oh boy. I just saw this thread for the first time. I'm sorely tempted (assuming I can get my brake pedal to firm up. I'm going to leave a stack of playboys on the floorpan overnight and see if that helps).

    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    PSA: the airpack bleeder screw is significantly shorter than the wheel cylinder bleeders. They're all cleaned and reinstalled. I might have time to try bleeding again after dinner or might have to wait until tomorrow. We'll see. I did not have an inline pressure gauge but I found an endcap...

    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    Wow, wow, wow. If these two bleeder screws off the take-off wheel cylinders are indicative of the rest, I can see why I had a problem! They were packed full of sand. Dozer1 yes it took a drill bit to clear them out. Then some air, then some wire wheel...they look like new now. I'll repeat the...

    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    Maybe I need a little more pressure in the sprayer tank as well, I was never getting more than a very slow seep. No gauge on it, just gave it 30-40 pumps.

    paint job

    Yeah, need more pics. What am I looking at, a bobbed crew-cab 5-ton? Wow.

    Dang, I just found this thread. Where you at in KY? Welcome.

    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    OK I will clean up the 2 I have loose and then replace / clean the existing ones as needed and try again. At least one of the rear ones is painted over!
