Few more hours today installing the stack bracket and hooking up the airlines. I need to make a couple of adjustments. Traced all the wires out including the ABS system. I’ll do some soldering tomorrow.

How did you figure out how to connect the airlines to the cutoff, im thinking about a cutoff but working about linessinglescrewshaker, Raptor13, Rideandrepair and 2 others Thank this.
-
Pretty easy really. Just label what goes where when you cut the old one off. Then reconnect to the new stuff.
The wire for the ABS requires a little research and troubleshooting but doable.
Point is if you have the skills and tools to splice and move the cut offs around you’ll be able to handle the airlines.
Literally the hardest part was unloading the new cut off off the trailer so far.singlescrewshaker, jamespmack, Rideandrepair and 7 others Thank this. -
The old rails under the slider were better than I expected but the underside of the of the slider is shot.
New peals tool on order for the new rails.singlescrewshaker, jamespmack, JoeyJunk and 7 others Thank this. -
better than the rails under my 5th wheel on my pete. when i pulled the 5th wheel off the original frame there was some holes all the way threw. 5th wheel should really be pulled off my mack soon and descaled and put back together iv been noticing some rust jacking starting there on that truck. the sooner you can get that junk knocked out of there even if you don't even paint it will greatly extend the life that rust scale just wicks moisture/road salt in there and never lets it get out.
