If he's in Kalifornia, he'd BETTER clean it off! The CHP takes it very seriously about dropping stuff off a truck on the highway, and the fine is severe.
The mobile drill rigs that I've worked around are really careful about it before they leave a job.
Thanks Pop, it's looking rusty around the seal, so I might as well de-rust when I remove the door. It always pops open when driving due to ?venturi? effect.
Anyway, with rain on the way, I needed a MacGyver solution. Partially dried out 'tube of goo' worked.
In other news, received the new hitch and finished up adding the blocks. Ordered a new rubber brake line and steel tubing. I have a flaring tool around here somewhere...
How's the goop holdin up? If it held today I don't think it'll ever leak again
Unless you try to back into the garage...
Held up good Chris, dry as a bone inside this week.
On another, similar topic, I'm working on the hard brake lines and bought a new flex hose. The hose heads up nicely to the frame cross member and there's a hole that I can attach it to. From there hard line up to the tongue.
My dumb question is how to attach that line to the cross member? What kind of fastener is that in the 2nd pic? How to get on/off? Do I buy another clip to slide into the flange on the same fitting buy on the far side of the hole?
The clip already on your line would be on the opposite side of the panel. Which means whatever the panel you are penetrating needs to be within a certain thickness range. The gold clips should have a little bit of spring to them, to handle different panel thickness.
If your panel is too thick to make up, you can remove that clip on the hose, and just let it seat on the face of the hex portion, or add whatever washer is necessary to get it all to work. Kind of looks like you're going to have that problem with the panel thickness. Not much groove is showing in your 4th pic.
