    245-70-r16 on the rear?

    That would be fine for a static (standing still) load but when driving you get up and down or hit pot holes, etc which gives you a varying load on the tires which could exceed the 2400 lbs. thus the need for a little more pressure. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick CO > > Load range 111 is...

    Flat Spots on Rearmost (new) Tires

    No way from storage. It had tobe mechanical. Very likely from the parking brake being left on. Yes, it would be strong enough to lock the wheel. How would it lift if only the rearmost locked? Emery Stora > > Greetings from Southern California - > > Here's an odd one. Not my coach - a 26'...

    Transmission Fluid Unknown Age

    Change the transmission fluid and the final drive oil and the power steering fluid. You should also consider flushing the brake fluid. Some might also advise replacing the headlight oil :). Emery > > appreciated.

    DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid

    John that is a strange way of looking at it. Just because a can of brake fluid says it has a boiling point of, say, 500 deg F does not mean that it will run at 500 deg F. If it get to 500 deg F with DOT 3 brake fluid the fluid will boil away and your brake parts will still get to 500 deg F or...

    DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid

    John DOT 5.1 IS NOT A SILICONE FLUID. DOT 5 is silicone but DOT5.1 is a glycol based fluid and it totally compatible with DOT 2, 3, 4 but NOT with DOt 5.0. I don’t know why the SAE or DOT names it with a 5 as it is confusing to some (many) people. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick, CO > >...

    DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid

    Yes, GM recommended Dot 3 but only because Dot 5.1 did not exist at the time. Brake fluids change for the better from time to time as labs develop fluids with better characteristics, just as Oils and Transmission fluids have changed. I highly recommend change your GMC over to DOT 5.1. Emery...

    DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid

    You do not have to change out any parts. 5.1 is not a silicone fluid. It is a glycol based so it it compatible with Dot 3 or Dot 4 fluids. I just sucked out my master cylinder and added 5.1 and then bled the brakes until they run clean. It is compatible with the rings and seals. A very simple...
