I needed to pull the parts out of the soaker anyway.(Five gallon bucket of diesel fuel ) Figured I might as well take a stab at this while it's still fresh on my mind. 1.) remove the bearing cap 2.)

Speaking of brake lines

Ok, If someone will post the manual on a web site, I'll scan mine and send it to them. The AA pics don't hold a candle to the original Warn book. Landen Schooler

Re: Brake Fluid Replacement?
Ken, Think that one over again. How hot does water need to be to disappear? Will seals last at that temperature? DOT 5 has its own set of problems. Not completely trouble free either. Water can get in

Re: Brake Fluid Replacement?
I have purged a lot of brake fluid and am a firm believer in it. The stuff gets contaminated and it is brakes we're talking about. In this day of disposable cars it obviously doesn't happen much.
