Re: Emergency Hydraulic Parking Brake Switch Broken

Wow thank you so much! I will check out these links and report back to see if this fixes the issue. Should I bleed the hydraulic lines if I replace the fluid with a new batch of hydraulic fluid? Thanks for the info!

Emergency Hydraulic Parking Brake Switch Broken

Hello Safari & friends! So while working on my 91 Sarengti I realized my emergency brake switch was messed up after one of the brake lines going into it explosively detached its self from the switch body, spraying brake fluid all under my center console. Under further inspection, I believe a pre...

Re: Looking For New Sway Bar End Links For 1991 Safari Serengeti

It seems like I am down to finding some grade 8 all thread or bolt or having a piece of rolled steel machined and threaded at both ends. Here is my follow-up question? If I replace the end link on the right side bac...

Re: Looking For New Sway Bar End Links For 1991 Safari Serengeti

8V92 is very rare in a Safari coach, so you got a unique one. I would call Frieghtliner with your chassis and/or VIN numbers. They should be able to get the part for you or at least give you the needed dimensions. You could also take the parts to a suspension supplier and they should be able to fin...

Re: Looking For New Sway Bar End Links For 1991 Safari Serengeti

Anything wrong with the end links or only the bushings. Should be able to find polyurethane bushings (need 8) if the "metal" is OK. Please check on your engine. Suspect it is the FOUR STROKE 8.2 Detroit diesel, NOT the TWO STROKE 6V92 diesel. HUGE DIFFERENCE. Doubt there is a single compo...
