    5n ton non air brake question

    Check your return port on your MC. You may have trash in the line. I've had this issue on motorcycle brakes and clutches and 9 times out of ten, it was old fluid that had gummed up the return port. I would use a bristle from a wire brush to punch it out and they would work fine from there.

    What’s that for.?

    On a bridge truck they were located on the "headache" rack behind the cab. On my deuce, I mounted them on the rear with the swivels to act as reverse lights/rear floods.

    What’s that for.?

    Looks to me like a light switch that was added later. 99.9% of all toggle switches I've seen that Uncle Sugar installed had a tag explaining its function. This is a switch for floodlights from a bridging truck:
