    Actually, that 'fishing lure' is actually polymerized fuel. It's diesel that's come in contact with RTV silicone sealant. The RTV sealant causes the diesel fuel to polymerize into a rubbery thick jell at the point of contact. I recommend checking if your fuel system has had any gaskets installed with silicone sealant on either side of the gasket. If that's the case, then this episode will be a recurring problem.

    The good part of this trip is it helps identify all the things that are important to change for future intended use. A short trip in better conditions would have left you hanging for future preps.
    Someone can soften up that suspension for you if you're not going to need the full capability for cargo or towing.
    The heater cable looked kinked up but can be repaired or replaced. Plus the defroster open/off damper could be fitted with a hard plastic seal to shut off the heat.
    A good cleaning of the entire fuel system wouldn't hurt just to prevent more junk from clogging injectors, etc.
    Looks like you need either a larger or an auxiliary air-conditioner because the cab is huge. And you can replace the air wipers with electric ones.

    Imagine driving that with an air seat that doesn’t work and it is up-armored. Done that in the Marine corps for 6 years. We drove 7 tons though

    Hey Matt, from a truck driver never ride your brakes when not needed. I typically pump the brakes hold for 6 seconds and let go, and just adding the amount of pressure as I slow down. If you use them too much or ride them you will burn your brakes up faster.
    PS: Also air powered windshield wipers sounds like a terrible decision to have them when your truck needs air to stop.
    You need to see how much air those wipers take from your brakes. I know truck air horns can bleed air tanks empty pretty fast the longer its used, which no air no brakes.
    Hope you see this matt.

      But aren’t air brakes made so if you loose pressure they lock up instead of not braking at all?

      Slumpdog okay, I thought it was something you automatically had if you had air brakes, so it wouldn’t be left without brakes if you lost air pressure but I’m not educated about this so thanks for correcting me

    Drove many, many 5-tons in the military. They have a "cruise control" on M-925...it's actually a throttle controller with a knob you can pull toward you to increase the revs. We called them cruise controllers, which they aren't, but they kinda sorta work alright when driving on the highway
