    I wanted to change that valve but just couldn’t bring myself to do it. Looked like a PIA even with the dash ripped apart. Maybe in the future I will and customize like you want to do.

    Might buy spares, (D and P sides) before they go up. Should they drop negative to your cost, stick a magnetic sign on sleeper side, offering at cost plus 20.
    Good rate on them if turned in a year, Could add delivery $ if the situation was dire for the buyer... Demand need sets my selling price...

    Well.

    Looked at guys 07 Wilson hopper bottom.
    Looked great..
    Until, me being a stickler, climbed under it, on top of ladder, open tarp, climbed back down after inspecting that, then seen daylight.

    Followed to see a rivit pulled out, need an over size one, had a small 6-7 inch split from rear tub to crossmember, trailer pulled 1/4 inch away from crossmember.
    Said, “No.”

    Was offered it cheaper, No.
    I see about 15-18k worth of work needed.
    I’m safe! Woo! :cheers:
