well as you know, when the mark in the window lines up, the ip does not want to sit there unless you hold it. glad it was all so simple, well some of it anyway!!

This was how I solved the "cam over" while trying to get everything tightened down. SURE did make it easy.

A breaker bar, a deep socket, and a C clamp

Took her for a spin this morning, no brakes!

I spent the day adjusting brakes, fixing wheel cyls, swapped out master cyl, and rebuilt air pack. 2am is too late to take it for a test drive, I will try in the morning. Sorry to everyone whos calls went un-answered, I'll try to call later. I have to be ready to head out to Ga soon! (if the brakes work)

Actually I'll just pull in front of him when he wants to stop and slow him down with my Dodge and M101.

Gimp, I think you are beating my record for working on something until the last second. Didn't work well for me this year going to Virginia. Good luck my man.

On my way to Crusher's house I had one of the new injectors go out. That was it, the truck is staying home for Ga rally. SOB!

What was the distance of the injector throw? You gave it your best shot, now go have fun and forget about it.

Undetermined distance on the wrench and the injector throws. Neither one have landed yet! I am sorry this has all happened to such a helpful guy.
