Ok so my wife's 80 came the Wisconsin rust belt.... (has more rust on the frame and axles than my 77 40)
anyway after lifting the truck with ome mediums from slee .. i wanted to adjust the valve appropraiatly... several months of PB blaster and a wire brush i managed to snap the adjusiting bolt in half attempting to move the nuts... any reason to replace it?? my plan for now is to just wire it up to the frame for full brake effect....
yes i did plan on moving the valve itself but the nuts are almost completly rusted away i fear needing to replace the valve (cdan mentioned the price to me painful but not life theatening)
so anyreason why i couldn't just wire it up out of the way??
thanks
