Non-Ethanol gas is 5.44 right now. OK if you want to feed the lawn mower and the trimmer, not so good it you want to take the 554 CID Waukesha for a ride to a car/truck show. I'll bring it to Macungie and one or two very local shows but guess who will not be venturing out of the garage much this summer? We spent $2600 on groceries last month. I am working my part time job and the wife picks up some overtime, but the 12 hour shifts kick her butt. We can barely keep our heads above water. This is insane. It has to end at some point.

Took me a minute to see it. A tornado came though (before I owned the place) and that tree was how close to the house it got!

I made a fixture for lifting the big cam's at near perfect balance. You installed one way if the clutch was already installed and flipped it around for if it wasn't. Single line lift makes aligning the engine to the mounts easy, a line-up bar with the engine suspended just off the mount, and you could start the bolts. same for stabbing the trans, with the single line you had more then enough movement to stab the trans. I had done both with a big fork truck, but found the overhead line method easier.

Did the H-65 look like the H-63? What was the difference/upgrade? -
B-73 Restoration

Wow, that one is nice, great paint. The cab is a lot different. It appears to be a standard truck cab, with the necessary fire truck add ons. The truck you pictured has a much widened and contoured cab. -

I’ve tried to search for my dad‘s old company photos. I can’t find anything on it except for patches which I have bought and a B model ,, model with their logo. I guess there was probably nothing interesting at the time… they had U model Mack’s for the road and most of their city rigs were load stars really nothing unusual about anything they had. Beacon fast freight I’m sure you remember them TJ they had a yard in Kearney. -
I'm in need of one of the "cleanable" primary fuel filter assemblies that came on the B model Thermodyne diesels. The filter can is held on by four 1/4"-20 carriage bolts, and it has a large nut on top to spin the wiper inside for filter cleaning. Please message me if you can help. Thanks in advance. I can post a picture of what I'm looking for if it would help

Cool looking truck. As for the mods, whatever floats their boat I guess. Myself, I like stock. I just went out of my way finding new drums for Dayton spokes for my Louisville because I refuse to convert to budds. Hard to believe how much stuff is going obsolete now for even trucks built in the 80's. Around here tire shops can't even get wheel spacers for Daytons. there used to be millions of them on the road here right up into the early 2000's.

There used to be a couple of websites you could go to for all of that old stuff. Some of your fellows might remember them or how to get on them. -
Check the mass ground post in the dash up by the A-pillar. I had a new 2000 CH with an E7 460 and I used to constantly get the lightning bolt light on the dash and the truck would shut off and restart while driving down the highway. Dealer could never find the problem, they changed harnesses, ECM, etc. Then years later someone on this forum posted about the mass ground point needing to be cleaned and grounded better, and sure enough, that's what the problem was.
