Yep no idea what this is about, glad it went well what ever it was Guessing a purple circle thing and Im out of the circle I guess that old saying "pictures or it never happened" comes to mind lol Paul

Something to remember is different parts of the world had different air brake requirements to Australia I dont think they will be a lot different but ? The UK and at a guess Europe as well had three air lines going to their trailers, not sure what the third air line did, have asked before but never had a good answer So some extra things to think about, Swishmans picture should be a good start Paul

I'm very interested to see how the curtains work for you I think if theywork well it will be a good investment Paul

When did Fargo stop existing, at a guess I would of said mid 50's in Australia Paul

As said above

Congrats on the new arrival, hope all is going as planned Paul

I finally got around to watching these videos Very interesting stuff and thanks for sharing Paul

Yep I'll roll with this, we need a laugh these days And yes it would be fantastic to bring it back to life Paul

A very smooth and stylish truck Paul

Kenworth had adds back in the 70's for their mid size trucks that went something like "Most mid size trucks are lightweights built up, at Kenworth we heavy heavyweights built down" Those Dodge Big Horns look like a lightweight built up job to me Paul

PICTURES IN HISTORY 🌍 The crew of the 'USS Stickleback' didn’t expect things to end this way—rising from the depths on 28 May,1958, only to be broadsided by the hull of a friendly American destroyer, the 'USS Silverstein'. The Stickleback sank to the bottom, an 11,000-foot journey to nowhere. Now, 62 years since the sub disappeared from any radar screen—and became one of only four U.S. Navy submarines lost since the end of World War II—it’s been found again. The sub—named for a spiny, scaleless fish native to many northern waters—was found off the coast of Oahu, Hawai’i, by the Lost 52 Project, an independent initiative to find the 52 American submarine wrecks from the World War II era. The great depth of the wreck (over two miles beneath the surface), and the fact that its precise resting place was unknown, allowed the submarine to elude discovery until now. The project found the sub by cross-referencing old records with modern sonar technology and remote submersibles, which eventually located the ship split in two at the bottom of the sea. The Stickleback’s sinking could have been far worse. It occurred in 1958, after the sub had come out of decommission—ship retirement—to serve in the Korean War. A training exercise gone awry had caused it to plummet through the depths; when the sub managed to resurface, it found itself in the path of the Silverstein. A collision was unavoidable, yet no one was hurt, and the Stickleback’s crew scrambled onto the friendly destroyer before the sub foundered and slipped below the waves, this time for good.

What breed of traileris that Brian ? Paul

Does blow black smoke when this happens??? If it isnt blowing black smoke it would be telling me it is lacking fuel Paul

So we had no idea we were independent being before mirrors were invented?? Must of been a heck of shock to who ever invented the mirror to learn he or she was some one Paul

Well I have learnt something new today, I never new Japan landed on Australia during WW2 Paul

#Onthisday in 1942 the battle of Milne Bay began in New Guinea. On the night of 25 August 1942, Japanese troops landed by sea at Milne Bay. Two Australian brigades (about 4,500 men), some American engineers, and two RAAF squadrons were awaiting them. A savage battle raged along the shore, but after several days and extreme exhaustion, Japanese troops began evacuating by sea on 4 September. Of the 2,800 Japanese landed, only 1,318 re-embarked. Allied deaths included 167 Australians and 14 Americans. Milne Bay is remembered as the first defeat of the Japanese on land during the Pacific War.

That's one heck of a result there Paul

Fantastic stuff, it's always good to get feed back to know if the results on these mods are going good Sounds like another winner Paul

The Antonov fly escaltors into to Sydney when Melbourne was building its first Crown casino It couldn't land in Melbourne then for some reason and the escalators were trucked to Melbourne The company Kone Elevators won the contract because they were the only people that could get the escaltors in the time frame required Write ups in the paper and Im pretty sure even made it to the news on TV Paul

Looks sharp Paul

Is air still getting to the bags at all or is there a crook valve, if air is getting there and a bag is blown or a hose is damaged, fix that As Mark T says "fix them and you'll see a instant improvement i ride" Paul

Have a CRACKER OF A DAY Alex

Great to hear a report back as to how it all worked out when you get a chance Paul

Sounds like the cab has air ride and the air bag for the cab isnt inflating Maybe a linkage has dropped off valve or the valve is fault Hop under the truck and look at the cab for a deflated air bag or bits missing or hanging Well walked the dog "Miss Molly" that is, my border collie While I was walking I thought I would quickly google air ride for CH Mack cabs And it appears that as I suspected CH Macks have a air ride cab Now the Granite you have I believe is based on a CH cab It should have air ride similar to this photo And it should ride pretty good when working The way describe that your truck is looking like its broken in half when parked would lead me to think the cab air ride isnt working at all So I would check the air bag shown in the middle of the picture to see that its inflated Paul

Is the cab suspension working correctly, I assume it has suspension on the cab Paul
