Doing normal maintenance on trans, oil and filter change, I found broken brake line on rear housing. Cause of failure; vibration and improper mounting. So now going into the fourth round I will have a new brake line and fresh brake fluid. And a test and tune day to make sure everything is OK.
Moral of the story, be safe and check you stuff. |

We left yesterday to travel to the site of the first Nationals, Great Bend Ks. Got as far as west of Wendzville Mo. on I-70. We got lucky and pulled into a rest area at 9.30 pm and found a spot to park and put the bedroom slide out. I sure hope I didn't use all my luck on this trip in a rest area.

That's why I always suggest the drivers go visit the safety trap at the end of the track before running. Glad you caught and repaired it, good luck and safe travels. |

Great catch although, if you're going to lose your brakes somewhere, Great Bend would be a pretty good choice.
