Muck Boots 'n' Slickers - Life of a Livestock Hauler

Well, I didn’t know I was a freightliner fan, but the way it’s looking around here I perhaps should stop denying reality!

 

Air leaks can be a royal pain in the arse some times.

 

When I mentioned soaping down the compressor discharge line, especially if it was braided/Stratoflex line, I had in mind while the truck was running, but I don’t know that I said that.
My first truck (2002 Western Star, N-14) had the exact same problem that you have been fighting, and it was the compressor discharge line leaking while the compressor was pumping.

 

Easily one of my favorite 359s

 

That bottom photo ought to be on the cover of a magazine.

 

The compressor line is copper back to behind the engine, then about a 2 1/2’ braided on to the dryer. Don’t know why I was having such a brain fart moment….

 

When a man has as much information in his head as you do, it can be hard to re-call some of it.

 

It needs painted, and Cali hookups are on the agenda.
I got to go trucking tomorrow, so the final thrash is on.

 

I’ve been told many moons ago, that combination(copper for heat, braided for vibration), but what do I know. I’m just a “wannabe” steering wheel holder.

 

So this is my fault for having the internet. Anyway this cow hauler page I am on this guy puts a post up bout how it ain’t easy and he deserves respect. Alls I said was it’s your choice don’t break your arm patting yourself on the back. His buddy says I am jealous and don’t have the balls to do it…Is that not the most absolutely adorable #### yall ever heard
