Big thanks to all my new friends on this Forum, for all of their insight!

Oh, is this truck all metric or SAE or a mix?

If are lines are torn I wouldnt reuse them. The 12v led headlights work you can cut the wire ends off the mil bulbs and crimp or solder to the leads on the new lights. Email will atpawnking dotcom not allowed to put price in open forum.

M1088 Air brake compatibility question. Can lines are different size.

Well I managed to not OFF myself while changing a rear can on my m1088:) I note that the can that I got from Suprman has smaller air line connections than the one I replaced. Suprman was quite helpful. Is this going to be an issue? The pressure would be the same, but less volume. Not a big volume in these cans.

I can get air connection size adapters here in Nashville at and/or hoses at IR-G Industrial Rubber and Gasket. Great company and they are helpful and have OEM military contracts, military truck owners frequent them, so have lots of good stuff. They have a water jet cutting system too. They also have stores in AL and AR.
