Looking good, it will look different once the clear coat goes on Paul -
What’s he want for it?

@Vladislav I think you are 100% right I did find one that looks very similar to what I have off a 88 DM600 that looks like mine only flipped over. Think im still going to find 9QL4551M back to back that seems to be stronger and cheaper. otherwise just reweld and fix what I have.

It appeared to me the trunnion shaft was higher on Temperleaf than Camelback. Not almost sure, follow Terry's advice.

A five star rating joke!!!

Looks like Mack used different styles of the crossmembers which played their role equally. Some trucks had the style your truck have, some those flat style doubles. That's for 80's years and maybe earlier. Don't know the reason. Options? Or just supplys from different vendors? My R's are Canadian built (actually assembled) and they look slightly different in a few points than typical US production vehicles. Of what I noted (if I'm not wrong) a certan chassis has all the crossmembers of the same style (what makes sence). But practically it doesn't look any wrong if you put one crossmember of different style and it fits right and functions well.

B-73 Restoration

Still looking great! Winter will go by quickly and hopefully we can get some more shows in next year! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! -
For a while now, ive been smoking meat for a few hours, then wrap it as needed, and put it on the grill on a low roll. It comes out tender and cooked enough for my wife to enjoy it. That last part is key to a good night.

That’s a wild story 4000 miles. Wow, happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. -
I've been seeing lots of pictures and videos of spatchcocked turkeys lately, and they looked really good after they were smoked. They looked like this at first- I've never done one but i've been wanting to try it. So I did yesterday, but much like the pictures of the hamburgers in the window at the Tastee-Freez, mine looked nothing like the pictures I saw. Mine looked like a disaster. So I just cut the leg quarters off and cooked it on the offset smoker kinda like a big chicken. It never did get done, I couldn't get the temp. up on the smoker. I blame it on the wind, it was very windy . I should have either put it on the Pit Barrel or grilled it like chicken. I guess. Anyhow, I pulled it off at 150 degrees and I haven't decided yet whether to put it in the oven today or put it on the grill until it's done, and hope it's not dry as a chip. I think I'll put it in the oven at about 200 degrees.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!! Just closing up the first full year with the B73 on the road and tomorrow it's off to storage along with the Cadillac. I'm happy to report I put almost 4,000(!!) miles on it this season and the only casualty was the NOS speedometer I put in it, loudly died while coming back from Massachusetts three weeks ago. I couldn't get the cable off it when I stopped, so I continued on. It got louder and the needle spun wildly around to the stop numerous times until something broke inside and the needle came loose. The mileage was still counting and at least it was quieter now. I've got a box full of used "spares" I've accumulated and the only one that worked accurately was the original. So, thats back in it and working. The NOS one was spot on, in terms of accuracy, for once. Most of the vehicles I've got are off somewhat. The original is 1-2 mph fast so that's reasonable. I hope everyone had a good year and looking forward to the upcoming one. -
Seems the thorough screening only applies to the chosen 🤔

Same to you Paul! (Eventhough you're in Ireland, I guess you can still be thankful)

I have trucks that will hold some pressure overnight Like 25 psi left. The real test of a system is how many minutes it will go between compressor cycles while going down the road. Best truck I had, truck and trailer on air ride, air wipers, would go 45 minutes between cycles of the air drier. Anything less the 15 minutes and you have work to do. I haven't seen an air system that will hold for several days on the main system. My air start would hold enough air to start for 4 weeks, but the main system will be empty.
