Sure appreciate the time you spent putting these videos together for the P-32 truck frame maintenance. Great content! I notice several Trek owners have already followed your lead and changed out their brake booster system. Thank you very much.
Thanks for the feedback. The booster is a really good upgrade. I’m working on some videos on suspension and steering upgrades / fixes. Should have them out soon.
Appreciate this video. You removed a lot of the mystery about doing this kind of maintenance work. I noticed it mentioned below about a hydraulic jack. Using the levelers saves weights in this regard- money too!
Thank you. I have done a ton of work on mine. I'm still learning. Check out Trek Trax forum if you aren't already a member. There are some super helpful and extremely knowledgable Trek owners on there.
I have an ‘88 super chief 31QR and was wondering if a 4 ton hydraulic jack would be enough to jack up a corner at a time to put it on stands? Otherwise the only other way I can think to lift it is cutting a 2x12 into 12x12 squares nailing a bunch together so I can use a 10 ton bottle jack to lift up an axle at a time. Currently it’s a no crank, I just replaced the continuous duty solenoid and I hav rust to see if that fixed the no start but it sat for a while and it might have electrical damage from rodents In the back so I’m not certain the levelers will work.
Thank you for the feedback. I don't mind spending money on tools but also try to save where I can. In this case, the vehicle has a hydraulic system that is completely capable of lifting it off the ground. With proper safety blocks / stands its a lot faster and safer to use the hydraulic system. Too each his own though. Just be careful with that cheap jack. It'll probably work just good enough to kill you.
