Re: 1990 GMC Suburban ... Cummins Powered

Found some time to work on the big girl ... I had fired her up and go all the little steering leaks fixed , hydo assist seems to work perfect ... you can turn the wheel with one finger , even with 40's .
Moved on to the brakes , made up a mount for the proportion valve , bent up some new lines , had to use some of the older fittings off k30 , sucks I ordered a new flare kit ... it sucked , seems the new kit was squeezing the tubing more than I was comfortable using could have restricted flow ... went back to my old forged kit and the flares were perfect .
I also added a torque link to the front of the motor ... had concerns that the motor with a load could possibly cause a leak over time in the steering hose connections .
