I have a 2015 389 Fitzgerald glider. I noticed tonight that when I released the tractor brakes I could hear air continuing to flow somewhere. It...
We ended up running an extra ground from the alternator to the frame and never had another problem. I hope that helps.
My first truck was a 1984 AM General. Spring ride, solid mount cab. Butterfly hood. All metal interior, drove it in Iraq. Let's talk back problems!
