The axle spacer marked U is the axle ring I was referencing earlier. There were two installed on the axle shafts, one thick one on inner and a thinner one at the spindle on stub shaft.
I am not sure if when I installed the spindle bushings they mushroomed slightly from driving them in which would make a extremely tight fit for the axle shaft?
Requested pictures
This is how far the axle has been assembled. Also when you grab the axle shaft protruding out of the end of the spindle it is very tight. I have no play at all which I am used to having a slight bit of movement there. I had to put a three-quarter inch drive ratchet on...
Yes I'll get a picture of the other side of the retainer. According to my parts guy it is the one I need for the Spicer type joint. Also it appears as though the stub shaft going into the back of the spindle is where the issue appeared to be.

I worked on the truck for a while today. I used an air hose to air up truck and I pressed the brake pedal repeatedly, I actually got the leak to stop. After this it was pretty apparent it was the treadle valve, so I disassembled it in place and cleaned it. There was some grit in it, I used...
I replaced all three with new this morning. In doing so it did fix the leak at the emergency gladhand out front along with cleaning the one-way valve close to the gladhand. I will check out the flowcharts to see if that will lead me in the right direction.Whatever the culprit turns out to...
