White smoke generally means air in the fuel So if it was getting air in through the leaky line back to the tank and the leak has been fixed, it would make sense it smokes less now Paul

The quickest and cheapest option by far is to repair what is already there Already have s cam brakes and thats most of the battle with older floats and smaller wheels I don't see fix this low loaders suspension up as a big drama I certainly wouldn't be reinventing the wheel here, just fix it up properly and it we ill out last any of us And it easily be capable of shifting a old D7 3T or 17 A Paul

I have never seen a axle ser up like this, however it should be all fixable I'm sure that line boring must be common in the U.S. like Australia We can get line boring people to come to site, whether it's your back yard or down paddock or on some building site in the middle of a big city They can weld the pivot bores up and then make them perfectly square with the trailer and then bore the holes out And then match the walking beams perfectly with the trunions, the bit welded to the trailer And presto, it's like new again, providing you keep it greased up ot will out last all of us Paul

Thankyou to all the veterans that were in Vietnam, both yours and mine Paul

Yes a lot depends on we're your respective country is in the workd and the lack of friendly waters to sail through The "tyranny of distance" still applies to Australia and NewZealand It really effects our countries when things like this happen That been said, I wouldn't live anywhere else but Australia Paul

Yep, tis turning into a mess really quick Dunno if the people that started this latest bun fight have fully thought it through Anyway, the joys of living in a global world Paul

I have done the conversion for you all U.S. dollars $8.28 per U.S. gallon for diesel nearest fuel place to me in Australia I guess it is all relative and good for us all NewZealand is even worse than Australia at the moment Paul

Well more productive than me, truck wise anyway Even work wise was a lot of cluster fuckery today Paul

Well we are just gunna have to wait for the next exciting chapter Stay tuned viewers 😉😉😉 Paul

Great stuff, always a big step forward getting it going Well done Paul

Euclid is my first guess as well Something along these lines, but bigger Or maybe this style of truck Paul

Not my photos or story, flogged from Facelessbook Bulldozer and prime mover in the river at Berri ferry. It took 3 days to retrieve! Not sure what year I guess it's one way to detail your truck and crawler tractor Paul

I would say that this is good advice Run lower if the tyres aren't kissing 💋 Dunno enough about loads you carry etc But, plenty of weight over the drives equals smoother ride Chuck a load on and weigh each axle at a time and see whats what If you don't have enough weight over the steer she'll ride like a bucking bull and leave you peeing blood if it's really bad Like riding a Harely with a ridged heal So cut through the B.S. Get some weights of each axle with a load on Measure ride heights if your on air bags, went back and re read your post, see that you are So measure heights Measure yoke angles if this has Mack rear axles ? And report back I'm guessing your king pin on the grease plate is to far back and it's making it buck a bit with a load on Paul

Sadly Joey our Australian language is slowly going and becoming more worldly Probably the same for many parts of the world We would of used Bonza, Beauty or Ripper not so long ago To be a Ocker Aussie as we were once called was according to Wikipedia "Ocker" refers to an uncultivated, boorish, or aggressively casual Australian man, often characterized by a thick accent (Strine), love for beer, and laid-back attitude. It describes someone who is stereotypical in their "Aussieness," often associated with being loud, friendly, and unrefined, originating from a 1960s TV character. What ever that means Paul
