Brake caliper - does this diagnosis make sense? (And any recommendations?)
1985 (early) F250 RCLB - been having front brake issues. Initially, pulsing / noise, and the LF wheel would get HOT. I found that I had the caliper "flipped", so the flex hose was oriented the wrong way: I've read on other sites that this can restrict fluid flow. So I flipped it back the...- madpogue

Any thoughts on reviving a half-lazy tank selector valve?
Truck is an '85, the PO told me it only worked on the front tank. Stooopid me didn't ask for more detail. Did some poking today, and determined that the selector switches from front to rear just fine. But when you flip to the front tank, it won't switch until you whack the valve lightly with a...- madpogue

Brake caliper rattle.....it's BAAAAACK
1985 F250 4x4 RCLB T19, has the old-school calipers. Bought it two years ago and both brake calipers were rattling in the brackets. Not the pads, mind you, but the calipers themselves. There's a curved "spring" that sits between the caliper and the slider thingy that holds it, that keeps it...- madpogue

Clutch line - is this right?
'85 F250 T19A, no idea on the miles. Was a farm truck until we bought it a couple years ago. The clutch hydraulic line is a flexible nylon (?) hose (see attachment). Is this right?
