It’s got a valve on both sides at rear of truck

while this may be true, all he has to do is change his name to Karen and declare himself president of the HOA. then he can do whatever he wants. 👍

You are right.. BUT Tommy lives in a Mobile home and in a Mobile home park(???) so he might have zoning problems with a permanet building??????

Did you check for two valves? Did you check the pressure at right and left bags and confirm they are different?

not that I'm aware of. Take a picture of the valve in question. The ones I'm talking about have only 3 ports, inlet, outlet and exhaust.

Mark.. it is a good paint, but I am not a pro painter, the cans are taller and heavier, it works for us... i think they are around $12+ per can.. still high,,,, but I bought 2,, $5 cans of Krylon and used them both on a toy, and still had crappy coverage.. I should have just bought MRO Safety Yellow...

Could it be a bad ride height valve?

Based on the fenders and the radiator alone, it’s actually in the ‘23 or later vintage. The truck serial number should be on the top, of the left frame member just behind the bumper joint.

I would think the proceeds from the International would have been a good chunk down on the 30' X 50' Morton.......now THAT would be outstanding.

I never heard of it until now. Never saw it anywhere here where I live. I'll be looking now.

It is probably the flexing loosening up the screws??? So you still have to stabilize it somehow.. And that would take a 5 gallon pail of Lock Tight!!

Some trucks have left and right level valves. The heavy haul tractors one place I worked had their tractors set up like that. You had to make sure they both set exactly the same. This assumes that you have actually measured the pressure at the bags on left and right. Trucks with only one valve, well you only have one source feeding so they can't be getting different pressure from the valve.

Hi have a 1998 Mack trident on neway 4 bag suspension. Seems that one side is getting more air pressure then the other side. any idea why this would be happening? thanks will

Had to look them up….. pretty hefty, and it looks like thier using the same cab as I had on a 579 Pete which is not a bad thing … bob

Ya just try macungie that happens with everyone you bump into….. and jumper told me that before I even went there the first time… not complaining!!!!!!

Two truck drivers telling truck driving stories for only an hour? l find it hard to believe! lol .....Hippy

ok i was wondering why you mentioned you didnt know what this guys big hurry was,,,i woulda been pissing myself in your shoes,,,and couldnt get rid of it fast enough,,,,,,,hurry up before he changes his mind lol..bob

Oh, the rest of the story- I was sitting here minding my own binness the other day when Michigan guy called. He said he was sending a truck to get the big green International that runs now and it would be here in the morning. This was after he had already talked to Underdog about delivering it. So then I had to scramble to clean it out. Still had tools and stuff and decorations from the Christmas parade in the side boxes and I had to put the mattress back in it. And the next morning the driver called and said he was about 30 minutes away. I went out and started it and let it run until it was on the trailer. It was about 30 degrees and I told him I'd never even tried to start it when it was that cold before. But it started right up, and I leaned my big piece of cardboard up in front of the radiator. He had cash in hand, so we loaded up and away he went. After we stood around and talked for an hour 🤣

Thanks for that. I got mine at Watts, but that was a long long time ago. They’re still in the box in my workshop.

At 5 foot seven I don’t even think I could reach the door handle ha ha

Well, thanks for that. Still unable to open, but I did see the big picture on the front. What a monster…. Bob
