    It could be the cylinder is sticking causing the brake to be applied. Similar to what happens to calipers.

    It was time... before and after my engine cleaning. One day when it's not raining I'm gonna remove the intake tubing and repaint it.

    Finally found the courage to tackle this project. Fabricated the mounting plate and wired it all up. Now I need to get my CB radio installed!

    alot still need done
    redoing my truck build list. i've cut alot of it out but the truck will be more capable for my needs. i dont see anything wrong with over doing it anyways, cause when this list is done and i start on my adventures im more then capable of tackling them. as much fun as the weekend trips are i want to do week trips lol. i probably shoud get HAM radio certified since CB is only good for 2-5 miles in most places.

    need to finish my armor rock sliders, skid plates (waiting on for BAMF) and rear bumper.
