Yeah, that BarsLeak stop leak and similar products do tend to plug more than just leaks.
Although they might stop a small leak they also tend to plug up heater cores, radiators, and other areas of your cooling system.
MIGHT be an option IF you are stranded somewhere & need to limp it home...
Is that the seal for the Driveshaft or for the Control Shaft?
I think "dcwilkie" was referring to the control shaft seals.
ALSO, who makes/sells the double lip seals?
NICE!
BUT I was HOPING to hear the sirens also!!
(Gotta get the full experience! And wake the neighbors!)
Is this gonna see fire fighting duty?
OR is it just a "toy"?

Please don't get too offended by anyone bashing you regarding the brakes issue. Brakes have always been a VERY SENSITIVE ISSUE here on the Deuce forum! (Best to avoid mentioning any brake deficiency.... IMHO... Unless you are requiesting brake system advice...)
Most...
I'd DO IT!
But then again I'm kinda biased....
As said earlier, offer less than he is asking.
I'd bet good money that he'll take $2K. Maybe less.
But $2500 isn't bad if it is complete & in good running order.

Sounds like a nice truck!
Glove Box Cover should be easy to find/replace.
Brake lights issue:
I'd guess that either your military light switch is in the wrong position, or switch could be malfunctioning...
OR your pressure switch is bad...
OR you have blown bulbs...
OR maybe just a loose...
I'd say go ahead & get it titled ASAP!!
IF you can get a valid title I'd have to think that it will be harder for GL to "reclaim" your truck or otherwise make your life difficult.
Let's hope that the "posession is 9/10's" rule applies!
I would, but my popcorn cart is in the shop....
...wait for it...
...wait for it...
...getting the BRAKES FIXED! roflrofl
(Note to Moderator: We REALLY do need a "popcorn" smilie!!)
:ditto:
I can almost understand someone "limping home" a short distance with a brake system that has just recently failed.
But I can't understand why anyone would knowingly go out driving or "wheeling" with no brakes! :cookoo:
Your life, and the lives of those in your path are more...
Proper maintenance is MUCH more important than mileage.
There are MANY old cars & trucks out there that have been properly maintained, have PLENTY of miles on them, & still run/drive great!
There are also many relatively new cars & trucks out there that have been neglected, abused, and...
