  1. Oh I got my 186 in the wrong place. Intresting just the same
  2. Thought they only made around 186 MH Magnums? Not questioning you just courious. And yes you could order a Magnum in 84 with the 500. it wasn't delivered until 85
  3. And a straight pipe too. Whats the placard on the front of trailer for?
  4. Cool pictures. Even like the Square headlight Cruiseliner
  5. VERY nice! Thank you for sharing this
  6. Some straight trucks used the trolley brake. Mostly in dump truck applications. It was handy when paving. Left your feet free. I would think you could block the line going to your service brakes
  7. Dual leveling valves are a PITA! But they are necessary with Neway I M O. We have had a few Neway's and discovered the grief of 2 valves is worth it. Otherwise your Bulldog may look like its going down the road with 1 leg shorter than the other
  8. But is that a Mack or a Volvo powered reMack?
  9. Wow. Just like in antique farm tractors. The equipment is becoming worth as much as the trucks and tractors. I like to see a "unit" at a truck show. Gives folks what it was like in back the day. Nice piece you have there. Not a popular name to me. Were there a lot of?
  10. That is COOL. Would like to see what powers it
  11. All I can say is HOW VERY VERY SAD WE AS A NATION HAVE BECOME
  12. Awesome job. She will be better than new!!!
  13. LOL. Detroit engines are made for a real man. If ya cant stand the noise ya bettah go find another line of work. Gee im glad I don't go across country with one. But I do own and operate a few still
  14. Were those front mounted directional an option? I was thinking that model didn't relate to a Cummins. The interior appears to be decent
  15. Air ride cab will make a BIG difference!
  16. Huh. A Cummins with a 5 speed. Intresting. Alsothe cab looks older like a 75 or 76 with those directionals
  17. You have an old school truck. It NEEDS old school flappers. If your not going to put 80,000 on miles a year then who cares about the small amount of noise. You have done a very nice job with that truck. Bottom line, it is YOUR truck so do what you want. J M O
  18. you are most likely on the right track. Just because I have seen this problem before check the return fuel to the tank. make sure there are aren't any restrictions. Usually associated with numb throttle response. Like RPM's not coming down fast
  19. Excellent question
  20. Check the Anaroid . Have to say, like the look!!!
  21. I have not ever seen a Cruiseliner with the air cleaner mounted down behind the wheel
  22. I second that!!!
  23. I thought 81 was the last year of the F model. Wow. Thanks for setting me straight. Learn something every day
  24. I put 5 gallon pails 1/3 full of old antifreeze with bird seed in the pail in each truck. Catching 2 to 4 mice a week.
  25. . Well here we go. BACK "in the day" we had a 82 Cruiseliner. It was only 5 years old. 350 Mack with the front ATAAC Fuller 10 speed, which sucked, 3.87 ratio on tall 24.5's. Truck was 185 W.B. We did install air ride cab. That truck rode so hard the windshields settled and cut the rubber on the bottom. Now I pulled a Bullrack so there are a lot of empty miles. Oh it 34,000 camelback. Fast forward to today. I run an 83 Cruiseliner that has an E9 shorter W.B. but has Neway suspension. As bad as that 82 rode this one rides to the good! I honestly say this truck rides as good as most any up to date conventinal ive run. It really is a VERY nice riding truck
