I've started posting there right atfer getting the truck. John and couple other guys have been very encouraging there.

The package from Peter came yesterday, we immediatly unpacked the servo rebuild kit.


And got started.

My son and I got everything cleaned and swapped out all the seals,orings, clips and springs today. I went ahead and stripped and did a quick paint job on the refreshed sevo. Tomorrow we'll finish assembly and reinstall it.

Nice job

looks good, you would think the parts for the brake servo would be easier to get in the States,

Nice job

Thanks!

Thanks, The circlips and o rings I could have found here but the other oddly shaped seals and such would have been too hard to track down individually.


We got the servo reinstalled yesterday, the only problem turned out to be the lower copper fluid line. We tried to be careful with it because it had a hard turn where it goes through a bracket and leaves the chassis. It looked like it had been crimped during a previous wrestling match. We finished it off. The drip turned to a steady flow when we 1st added fluid for bleeding. At this point we turned our attention to replacing a section of line and picking a better route for it. I wasn't able to find any suitable brake line or fittings local, it'll have to wait 'till Monday when the large truck parts supplier and others are open. Better to find and fix it now I quess.

My son, Travis, wrenchin' on Skinny.


We did get the seat bases, foam and covers replaced though.


A bud, Richard, helped do the seats.
