  1. If a double OD version things are a bit different compared to single OD version. The model number will tell all. IE: TRT 722 is single over. TRT 7220 is double over.
  2. Wow. Glad you are on the road to recovery. Just shows how frail life is and how unexpected things can be. Take care.
  3. Sounds like Triplex. Look at drivers side of transmission for model number.
  4. The big orange signals have me thinking more fire truck related then long haul?
  5. Nice!!! That's one thing I've never had the chance to play with............a wrecker. Like a pocket knife.........you might not need it everyday, but the time you do you sure are glad you have one.
  6. Ya, was checking weather myself. Ugh, rain, rain, rain. Hope it doesn't. I got all week off and hope to be able to do something outside? I'm thinking I might try to head out Wed sometime? Figure 7 hr? Need to see when the gates open/close? I'm guessing you would have to find a place to park "somewhere else" if you get there after hours? 1300 pre-reg? Wow. that's A LOT of trucks. Or is that 650 trucks with trailers?
  7. Should have told that fart smeller..........um smart fellar, that even after growing up with guns..........you were raised with enough common sense to NOT put a cap in his ass for being an ass. That you know that letting him life his miserable life as is, is good enough punishment for you.
  8. Had to chuckle on that one. Nice truck.......ya know.......for 93 yrs old. (I hope to look as good or run as well at that age)
  9. Bada BOOM!
  10. Saw on the news that Texas has been getting some real crazy weather lately. Rain and Hail. Ugh.
  11. The people at Witness Protection highly suggest I don't get into a photos.................
  12. Keeps it from huffing black smoke for no reason?
  13. I got the OK for vacation so I'm comin'.
  14. Ugh. Sorry I must a already donated it to someone along the line. All that is left is the new muffler and curved stack.
  15. Good to see your still kickn!
  16. Ken, pretty sure that is where I got mine back in 2003? I'll get a picture this weekend.
  17. Unhook the alt so it doesn't work. Then swap battery leads and start it. If everything works fine, get the alt switched and bolt it back on. No harm, no foul.
  18. I still have the stock muffler and guard and pipe laying behind the garage. I'll see this weekend if it has round holes. I bought it new, but only ran that set up for about a year and took it off. It needs a good home, I'll see if it is not rusted up(think it was stainless).
  19. Jumping 30 and 87 just bypasses the relay function. Thus the "flash to pass" will not work as I'm sure that just cuts power to the relay coil to turn the light off. If the relay is getting power to 30 and 85, then I would guess the GROUND side is what is not connected. I can't see the pictures well enough to decifer, but does the 'flash" button interrupt the ground?(I guess 86 pin goes to the flash switch?) Or, is pin 12 actually reading the other side of the relay coil(basically the ground side). I would guess the headlight(or marker light) switch turns the lights on, then the "flash" button just interrupts it. If you pull the relay, "85" has power? Then "86" should be ground. Flipping the "flash" button should interrupt that ground.
  20. Ohh, I know ALL about townships and zoning. Been there, 11 yrs ago. Have Mike dig up that picture of him in a suit going to court about his fight with them! It's all about POWER and MONEY. About 4 yrs ago, I was riding with someone that got a speeding ticket in Indiana. The bottom of the ticket basically said......."if you give us an extra $50, we'll forget to tell anyone about this". (meaning it won't go on your record). Naaaa, it ain't about the money. Ha.
  21. Went through all the hoops for my 4 wheeler for Auburn only to not be asked to show it. Ugh.
  22. Oh, I see Hat.......with a name like "Rachael" she has to be hot? Dont worry, she is.
  23. Ugh. Like I usually say..........."a good day at the races is when it makes it back to the trailer under its own power".
  24. I have a buddies little electic upright power washer. Does okay, but dies after a short time and you have to let it cool and refresh itself. Good for maybe a few pieces of lawn furniture at best. Neighbor has a small gas powered version, seems to do okay for what he cleans up. I've really wanted a hot water version to really clean things up on the Mack. We have a big blue steam jenny at work , but the pump is about shot and it barely drizzles water out anymore. Been trying to get it fixed so I can use it the shop can clean stuff up. I still just use water hose and car wash soap to generally clean it. I have one of those self wringing(folding) mops I use on the trailer. Makes short work of it. 2 x 40ft is a LOT of surface to clean.
  25. Call my agent in Canton. Rachael Chandler Head (330) 477-8529 4422 22nd St Nw Canton, OH Tell them Larry Kortkamp told you to call about insurance on a historical truck. This is not my first referral about this. Have a friend in Findley, Ohio that called her because his local SF agent wouldn't deal with him.
