    I got this from facebook. Showed up friday. I have them making me a custom "three stick" version!!

    Hmmm, I bet check them for RUNOUT!!!! Don't want them shaking while driving down the road..............

    I go over to the lake in the center of town(big pond more like it) at lunch and eat during the summer. Jeezus you should see how BAD some(most) of these drivers are at parallel parking. WOW> Real entertainment, just like watching a boat ramp on the weekend. I know my g/f is horrible at parking/backing up, she admits it. She cringes when I back my truck into tight spots and not hardly look over my shoulder. I tell her there are MIRRORS on the vehicle for a reason!

    Yup, I watch those Russian videos. Ya, glad I'm in Ohio(I guess?). Was down in Mexico a week back, wow, the drivers down there aren't much better. Road signs are just vague inferences to what you are suppose to do. BUT, I did notice the cops drive around at night with their flashers on constantly. Not really sure why? To be noticed? Kinda strange as cops around here hide in the dark til they spot you doing something wrong.

    "The smooth operation of applying power requires SKILL of the driver" (driving a stick shift) Whep, there's the problem. No skill present in today's society of drivers....... BillyT: One of those twin stick videos is of ME driving my truck. Ya, I see all kinds of comments posted about how unsafe, blah, blah, blah. Ok, whatever. I have a two handed version, but it is not posted anymore. I didn't post them actually, four other people did back when I made these videos 10 years ago(way before Youtube was around)

    ^^Why I don't want to put a dash cam in any of my vehicles unless the sound is muted......

    We have trailer races and stuff in America where you just do your best to absolutely destroy anything in front of you, but these guys are even more brutal!

    It's too bad that too many people wait til there is NOTHING left to finally "part with it".

    I still want a visor. Somehow, I need to make something up. I have access to a fab shop, I don't know what I'm waiting for?
  10. Freightrain
    Ohhhh, they have MUCH more fun over yonder............
  11. Freightrain
    I'm still trying to figure out where the green wire with the white tracer goes???
  12. Freightrain
    I'm almost done hooking up my new computer.......I'll be GLAD to help you make a harness for it............
  13. Freightrain
    Doh!!! Never knew that. Wonder if I send him an email he would consider something like this??? Could you imagine the paperwork you would have to sign to clear away the lawsuits possible from it?
  14. Freightrain
    This crap is WAY too entertaining. LOL!!! Damn they sure do know how to crash cars!! My neck hurts just watching it. Demo derbys are bad enough here, but these blokes do it at 60 mph. They also do it in Vans and Trucks too!!!

    ^^^Ding Ding Ding.................we have a winner!! Stupid people breed, giving us more stupid people. So the guberment thinks if the cars are smarter it will help. Ya, right. What happen to that guy driving the Tesla that ran broadside into a semi? Ya, how's that 'automated' driving stuff working out??
  16. Freightrain
    Almost makes you wanna polish and chrome plate it doesn't it?? LOL!! Put mirrors on the ground so people can see it at shows!

    I saw both trucks at York. Man, they are BIG. Very cool.

    The one I have for my motor is the offset housing style, it drops it down out of the way more. I suppose these would fit, but not sure. I'm thinking Mack is 11 tooth?(have to count).

    I left my stock filter on the engine and just put a remote mount back by the tank with a spin on/separator filter to help. I suppose you could likely buy any remote mount and filter just like I did and put it anywhere you liked. Not sure if I would worry about the return line on the filter? Is that necessary, as there is a return line on the injection pump.

    Yup, got off the plane and it was blowing snow!! Ugh. But nice to be home and be able to talk to people!! I got some time on the cruise today. I got the wiring all finished up. It functions properly. I got the bracket finished for the cable mount on the air compressor. The cable housing is cut to length and just need to get the pump arm back on and cut the cable to fit. Pretty happy with how it all turned out. Can't wait for next spring to try it out. We got blasted with snow and the roads are a mess. I'm not taking the truck out til spring now.

    That goes along with the Mustang GT from years ago that had twin chrome stacks up the side. It was from Texas also..........
  22. Freightrain
    There's the problem LOL!!! NO extra time.
  23. Freightrain
    That's owned by Brayden Tucker at Tucker Equipment over in Lisbon, Ohio. I don't know where he finds some of this stuff. He comes across some neat things. Just saw a post about a little round nose flatbed he just picked up. Not that I need it in any way, but would be cool to pull around.
  24. Freightrain
    Ok, have you tried slipping them on backwards to see if they go farther? That would get you a better view of the hub where it was covered up when installed the proper way. I was going to mention that one, til I saw you did.

    Just for this week! Glad to get home tomorrow and hear English for a change.
