    Axle vent tube gear oil coming out

    Maybe a CTIS seal leak is pressurizing the axle. Paint some Mr Bubble/water solution on the vent hose and and see if air is coming out.

    What is this part? / What fluid goes here?

    There is a trend among manufacturers lately to use very light oils in gearboxes to reduce friction and improve fuel economy. For instance my Ford pickup uses ATF in the 5 speed. Maybe this thinking is applicable to 60 year old trucks, who knows.

    Oil Pan replacement 6.5 L NEED HELP

    Nice work cleaning up the mating surfaces. I know it sucks doing that with oil dripping in your eyes. Is that a GEP engine? Never seen the red paint marks before.

    Brake repair

    When you reapplied the brake the second time, did the truck stop? Sounds like air is in the system. Oh and for sure fix the compressed air system such that you get 100 psi.

    M101 canvas

    Beachwood Canvas, New Age Canvas, or Weebee Webbing should be able to make these end curtains for you. The one piece top only came about in the 1980's, after the trailers had been in service since 1951. EDIT: Wrong info, M101 trailer canvas should have integrated end curtains, always has.

    Cucv Winch mount ideas

    Workmanship is perfect but the design still not right. The low mount is too low, the angle of approach is pitiful. I also don't want the winch upside down.
