I know the bleeder isn't clogged as I did get fluid out on the first two pressure cycles. The strange part is that it quits pumping fluid after that. That's my issue. It goes like this: Lever down Open bleed valve Fluid come out Close valve Lever up Repeat Once I have done this cycle two times the f...

By "pumping" i meant engaging the locker. The issue I am having is when the locker is engaged and I loosen the bleeder no fluid or air was/is coming out.

LibTimothy, thanks for the info! I've heard of the place in Marble Falls, in fact an Uncle of mine has a place very close to there.

Thanks Waterdog!

While looking the Pinz over I noticed this hole on the back end of the rear diff passenger side. Am I missing a plug here or is there something else that is supposed to go in this place? http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u314/EmbarkChief/Pinzgauer/th_093ED7EA-9FF7-4636-BEAE-A51A9D1A64A8-6890-000003...
