Thanks Steve. It seems to be getting better with use.

There is a ton of work involved, and I'd hate to see it go to someone else. You are the master modeller of Peterbilts. If I could build cabs like this, I would get rid of my Wedico and go with a Tamiya! The aftermarket is getting so strong, here in the states, finally.

Thank Nathan, I've seen your wedico, and I dont think you'd have a problem modding a Tamiya!

It's probably just a little bit of air trapped in the cyl yet. You could try bleeding the cyl again. If that doesn't cure it, then try adding weight to the front of the box or cab protector, strips of steel with double sided tape.

Thank Joe! It seems to be loosing up. The weight is a good idea, I did that on my trailer.
