Where's a good place to get a gallon of this?

I've gone those routes,was hopeing for a gallon or two of un-opened surplus if anyone has some they could part with.After doing a front axel seal on my 813 Sat. I paid dearly for what the aforementioned vendors had to bleed the brakes,wanted to get that purple color out of all bleeder valves.

I only use the DOT 5 in my cucv's all the 6x6's get DOT 3 and a flush every 3 years. WAY cheaper. Just a thought.

+1 to SpruceSurplus. I just got delivery of the 2 gallons I ordered from them. Took about a week to deliver from New York to Colorado.

How much fluid does it take to flush the brake system on these trucks?

I haven't ordered from Spruce Mountain before, but I see the metal gallon can on their website.
I've ordered from Saturn Surplus. It came in a plastic bottle instead of the metal can. They don't list it on their website, but I think it was something like $40.

I buy mine from Spruce Mountain. Great service and quick delivery.

 

[cattlerepairman]

I would buy from Spruce Mountain, but, similar to some other sellers, he does not do business with Canadastan. Not even when picked up in the US.

There are some options on ebay Cattlerpairman.
silicone brake fluid, eBay Motors, Collectibles. Great deals on eBay!
