In the city the only reason to turn on the headlights is so that the other drivers can see the vehicle coming In CA the government is more worried about what is coming out of the tailpipe to check the lights So many people drive with bright lights that driving at night is not as fun The best one is the people that have one headlight adjusted to blind you

The issue with CNG is fueling stations, even in the LA basin they are not that prevalent. One of my clients bought a CNG fleet only to find that it was costing them time, miles and money to fuel them. So there answer was to build a CNG accumulation, compression and fueling station at there facility and in the process they lost one truck parking space.

Too bad it's a passenger side door I would've been all over it if it was drivers side

Any idea how much weight ups was hauling with 3.70? Were they on std. height 20/22.5's? What engine and trans combo where they using?

Now if my wife would just wear the ribbon in the kitchen I would help her all the time

It was the bottom of the sleeve. It caught fire when she reached for something on the back burner. Looked much worse than it really was. I use old FR welding shirts when working on vehicles

Those fancy white chefs shirts are not flame retardant, at least not the ones at my daughters high school, she lit her sleeve on fire at a parents night

This summer I was visiting my baby sister, she's 50 now does that mean I am old?, and she was cooking with a instant pot. I mentioned it to my wife and she said she was too busy to learn how to use one so I bought myself one. This was teriyaki chicken last week Tonight is pulled pork

Since both kids are now away in college I have decided to cook a little, the food I like So I needed an apron. Instead of using one of my wife's I went to the shop and pulled a new apron out

The 2070 is the 5 speed overdrive with two low gears Is there a difference between the 1000 and 2000 series transmissions

To change a light bulb

The truck currently has the ENDT675 with a 5 speed direct transmission and a R170 rear axle with 4.33's in it according to the tag. I have been running some ideas through my head on some options for the truck to make it more drivable on today's freeways Option one is to simply change the gear ratio to 3.90 and service everything including having the radiator cleaned out. Option two is to swap in a EM6-300 and a T2070 seven speed Thoughts for a hobby truck that would probably never top 40,000 lbs and probably be at around 25,000 lbs most of the time. One of my issues is when ever I go anyplace I end up running trough one of the mountain passes or at least a big long grade.

What is the deal with the micro sleeper

From a quick internet search This water tower lies right alongside the former path of Route 66, which has since been paved over to create US Interstate 40. During the early and mid 20th century, passersby on the Mother Road were intrigued by the severe tilt of the tower, asking themselves what on Earth could have caused it. A crashing plane? An earthquake? A giant tornado? In reality, it was the work of a heavy-duty vehicle and a bulldozer. Ralph Britten, a man who wanted to start up a truck stop and restaurant off Route 66 in Groom, bought the water tower from the town of Lefors as an ingenious marketing technique to attract new visitors. He towed the enormous thing 34 miles to Groom, wrote “Britten USA” on top, and then, using a bulldozer, elevated two of its legs off the ground, dangling them in midair without support, so that the water tower made an 80 degree angle with the ground. This helped his business immeasurably. It would catch the eye of every passing motorist on the route for years, many of them becoming terrified that the tower was in the process of collapsing. This played right into Britten’s hand. Worried route-takers often swerved off the road and into his truck stop, shouting “watch out! That tower’s about to fall!” Britten responded that it had been like that for years, and then asked them to sit down and buy food and a drink. Britten’s manipulation of the tower did, however, require sufficient knowledge of physics. If the water tower were completely empty or completely full, its center of mass would be directly in the middle of the can, making it topple when slanted. So Britten filled it only partially, so that the low level of water would place the can’s center of mass near its base, directly above the two supporting legs, keeping it aloft. Unfortunately, after many years of success, Britten’s truck stop burned down in a devastating fire, closing down all sales. Despite this unfortunate event, the leaning water tower is still one of the most photographed oddities on the way out west.

The pictures Brandon sent me of a DM hood look completely different. I don't know if it is a R vs DM, or U, model difference or is it a Allentown vs Hayward production difference My truck is a Hayward Mack

Please check your email address It is coming up as invalid

The hood on my R model is missing the passenger side metal bracket shown in this photo Does anyone have a wrecked hood laying around that I could get this part off of? The part is probably the same on a U or DM hood

[quote post="407692" timestamp="1539266545" CHP even visited site before we left, more BS from people that know nothing. What did they do to you? I had them complain about oil vapor coming out of the slober tube at an inspection one time.

Does anyone have a wrecked fiberglass hood laying around? The passenger side metal piece that the rubber bumper rests on is missing on my hood

Since Mack only started using spin on filters in 1971 it is not surprising to see an old style cartridge filter on a 75. But why filter the oil to the turbo?

Yes it is very similar But the jeep fittings look like 1/8" or 1/4" pipe and these look like 3/8" or 1/2" And I did confirm it is hooked to the turbo

the down side to that is the clean up
