I understand that.

I am converting a military M101A2 3/4 ton trailer into a box camper. My 60 emergency brakes will barely keep my 60 from rolling. I also wanted the extra security of additional stopping power.

Thanks for reaching out. Some days it feels like the almost 18 years since Josh was killed; other days it feels like yesterday. As Jackson grew his infatuation/love for motorcycles grew as well. Jared, my middle son, has Josh's 40. Jared doesn't drive it much. It has always been, and continues...

A couple of months ago my 60 died, at night in the rain. I limped it home and I began the diagnosis (which I don't do very well.) A good friend and I rebult the carb. No change. (As I attempted to back out of the driveway I lost all of my brakes. More on this later.) I then replaced the orginal...
