    Airshift transfer, repair or replace?

    Why not take it out, you have to anyway, take it apart and see if the high low shift fork and collar is broken or bad. Or if you have bearings so bad that some gear is climbing out of position. If what is bad turns out to be parts that are also in sprag transfer cases, I will have parts for...

    Air-assist steering pressure regulator problem

    The regulator you are talking about is the one mounted on the frame rail near the hole in the frame for the bulkhead connector to supply air to the torque valve in the drag link? If so, it is already an aftermarket regulator valve, I have purchased them in the past for air-o-matics installed...

    Too fat to fit

    No kidding about cutting the back of the cab out. Memphis modifies trucks for a fire engine builder on Long Island, they extend the cab about 8 inches longer and it is a real nice modification. Might cost a lot but it works. JT

    Black Deuce??

    Yankee Deuce is at Aberdeen right now, check his truck out, there are very few any better looking, and he made a 385 mile trip one way with no unusual events at all. The peoplem who make the trip happen are either lucky, or in my opinion, the real men, cause they make their truck run right. JT out

    Air O Matic?

    You have a very complete set of instructions to read, you have a seller who should help you with basic questions like this. If you have no experience with front end/ steering parts service and replacement, I suggest you find a truck shop to install your new kit. John Tennis, Upstate New York.

    Parking Brake with spring / without?

    The mustache spring keeps the shoes apart so they don't wear on the drum when the brake is off. I have seen them recently with out the holes cast in them for the pins that the spring goes on. They might be aftermarket and the copy cats forgot to copy everything. JT out
