That's one of the wonders of our rear axle suspension system. On a regular truck that slip must be able to move almost 4" .

That would be nice Chris. I would like to have my own stand but cannot afford one of those steel military ones right now.

I bought one of those from harbor Freight for my little trailer that I tow behind my car. It has only lasted for a few years and out of those years only used maybe 10 times. I would not recommend this for our trailers.

As far as calling the "overflow valve" a bypass valve or relief valve it really makes no difference. Do you call your Dodge differentials ring gear an "annulus" gear ? Well that's what they call it in their technical manuals. It still is a ring gear though. Now here's something to mess with your...

No, there is actual air in the system. Here is what I'm talking about. I understand about water turning into steam, but there is also a problem with actual "air" in a system.

OK this topic has gone down the rabbit hole. I never mentioned anything about pressures of any kind. I have been totally talking about the bleeding off of "air entrainment" in the fuel lines.

OK, I'll try to explain what I'm saying better. The fuel is used to cool the Hydraulic head that is true in all fuel injection systems. There is a lot of heat produced when pressurizing anything. Just check your air compressor line out and you'll see what I mean. So the Hydraulic Head has fuel...

The "microbursts" I'm talking about are the small "explosions" you get from water and air that is highly pressurized like in a Hydraulic system or a Fuel Injection system. It is also known as "cavitation" . Of course cavitation is due to air entrapment while the water is more of a steam...

The 4 finger clutch assembly is fine, you just have to adjust it after installing it.

It must be a universal thing that women hate this smell while men seem to like it. Go figure !

Our new Subaru came with this little jack that pushes on the "pinch weld" on the bottom of the body on the sides. The location of the jack points is underneath the front doors and the back doors.

OK, that's funny ! rofl

Yes, Safety first.

I haven't seen anyone selling them anymore. I know the LDS engines had them stock though.

When you rebuilt the air-pac last time, how was the cylinder bore ? Anything to catch a 'O' ring on ? Also did you replace that small flat washer seal in the rod assembly ? Also Mobileauto2000 has a good point about the master cylinder. The pushrod can get lodged in the side of the outer cup...

So we where getting stoned smelling that stuff ?!?!? No wonder I liked it ! :-D

The cooling is also one reason for the bypass yes. The main reason for the metered orifice according to the manual is getting air out of the system.

What is the price on the 150 amp NATO slave connector ?

I didn't mean to "bust your chops" over your comment. It was more a "tongue in cheek" thing. I guess I should have used an "Emogee" icon with the winking face. Your right though about the safety issue. The Hi-Lift jacks can be deadly especially when bringing down the load. Hold on to that handle !

They are good clutches if they are set-up correctly. It just takes the extra effort to do so. What happens is that if the levers are not set right one or more of the levers takes more of the load (over stressed). This also causes the clutch plate to grab as it is unevenly releasing.
