    well..
    We all chipped in and got a cake..but you know truck drivers, all ways taking a little piece for themselves, I think it’s all gone now.
    Here’s the dilemma we faced trying to make it look good, if it helps.

    Is it leaking from the hub? Can you hear it, when Trucks off, keys on? Must be a Horton? Takes air to release, when bad stays locked in. You can rebuild it for around $550. It’s pretty easy. I used a kit masters kit. But Horton has a new EZ kit, that’s real simple. About same price at Freightliner. Had to order it. I couldn’t wait. Either kit is good. YouTube instructions on both. Horton video makes it look harder and more complicated than it is. Kit masters instructions are very easy. Just a few steps. If it’s a Horton and is leaking air. If the friction materials still good. You can just change the air cartridge, Still have to remove fan. They call it a mini kit. Less than $100, I think.

    In the late 50's we said: If it won't run, put chrome on it.
