Vent on transmission is blocked Oil out the selector valve would be more of air tank full of crap and oil than a gear box issue as the two arent connected Paul

My daily user float (low loader) is Steco which I believe may have been a US brand Australian made and heavy as all get out Had it for many years and will have to fix it all up one day These were ex army and I believe a lot went to Vietnam with our troops to shift their APC's about I have seen photos of two APC's on the one trailer One in the guts and the other over the back end Paul

I dont seem to be able to get the l8nk to work Sounds interesting and fast Paul

So with a lazy pusher type axle and mounting the charging pack in front of the rear wheels the chassis could be lopped and then it could be used for semi trailer work Or at least my simple brain works that way With 460 hp it should have bucket loads giddy up and go in it Paul

So Im to take it that the plot to get Trump out of office is so great it now involves all other countries around the world ?? I understand that the Don might not be everyones cup of tea but never realized just the lengths that people of the world would go to give him the ass They way I figure it, if (and Im not saying he is) he is as bad as some people would have us believe surely 330 million Americans would only have to wait another 9 weeks and they can just vote him out, I would think that would have to be easier than getting every other country around the world on side to perpetrate a fake virus and then get every other country around the world to list fake causes of death ? I never realized I was this dumb, not to have seen this coming Paul

Please dont think I have chopped your post apart because I havent, just grabbed a line out of it and after clarification on it as I have noidea at all What alliance ?

I don't ever recall seeing the Hyster brand of trailer in Australia, there Hyster fork lift trucks, Hyster winches and no doubt other types of Hyster gear Most floats or low loaders were of the style in the photo, fixed goose neck and load over the rear I dont really recall seeing ramps on trailers until the 80's All Australian floats had out riggers until the widening trailers came about and I reckon Drake were the first Almost all low loader trailers of say 20 years and newer are either full widening or deck widening type Swishy knows a lot more about this stuff than me as it's in his line of work Paul

Sounds like the diaphragm is crook If it holds bleed and works Im guessing that is all it is and vacuum is sucking fluid past a seal as it will be working the opposite way it is designed to under vacuum Diaphragms I would expect should be easily available as they are in Australia Looks like a fantastic ride Paul

To all the men who went, to all the Mums who let their sons go, thankyou People always seem to forget the Mums and Dads #OTD – Opening shots of the Battle of Long Tan At 0243 on the 17th of August 1966, the Vietcong launched an artillery strike on the Australian position at Nui Dat. This bombardment marked the opening shots of one of the defining battles of Australian Military History – the Battle of Long Tan. By August 1966, the Australian position at Nui Dat was only three months old. Concerned at the establishment of such a strong Australian presence in their midst, the Vietcong decided to take early offensive action to remove the Australian presence from the area. In the early hours of the 17th, the Vietcong fired over 100 rounds from several 82mm mortars, 75mm recoilless rifles and an old Japanese 70mm howitzer in a bombardment that lasted 22 minutes. Numerous vehicles and equipment were damaged, and 24 men were wounded, one of whom later died. Despite coming under fire, the 1st Field Regiment Royal Australian Artillery quickly commenced counter-battery fire at 0250, just seven minutes after the attack was launched. After plotting the likely enemy position, the Regiment fired a total of 240 rounds on the enemy position from 24 guns and the mortaring ceased. After the Vietcong barrage, the defenders stood to expecting a further assault but none came. Searches of the area later that day located the mortar sites, but found no bodies. Although the Australians had withstood the first attack with only minor injuries, worse was yet to come… On the 18th, the Vietcong would launch another attack in force.

There's a good story about a fella called Ron Horse who drove the first big Diamond T road trains in Australia 980 and 981's Anyway he had a German Shepherd dog sitting in the passenger seat, the trucks were LHD Ron would be driving and when a car was coming he would hold up a news paper with a couple of holes in it go see thru Everyone thought a his dog was driving

Dave they are some incredible photo's and stories Paul

What are the doors for ?? Might help with some feed back Paul

Need to see if the inner bell housing is wet all over or just running out from the transmission side It might not be much or could be something more serious Paul

I know I would get crook as a dog in it Still suffer terrible motion sickness to this day Or maybe I would be hanging on so tight I wouldn't get a chance to be crook lol You sure see some interesting places Paul

Does the exhaust run along between the rail and the cab floor ?? Paul

Does Kenworth still make normal COE truck for the US market ? If so, I wonder why they never used the cab Australia still have a K200 I think it is https://www.kenworth.com.au/trucks/k200/ Paul

It's not on that chart because the chart is dated 2016 And also thats a world chart not a chart for any particular country Paul

Im glad thats the case, I would be more concerned if you said excited

I did read somewhere that they did replace the jet with a normal diesel later in its life Paul

Swishman I think it was just a concept truck Gas turbines were good at highway speeds but sucked heaps of fuel when travelling in town The B 47 and B 52 bombers sucked bucket loads of fuel at low level but could be leaned right out once they had a high altitude Im guessing that was with the old early style jet engines, I'm pretty sure the jet engines got a lot more economical in a few years time Im surprised that this technology never made into the auto industry Paul

I also understand that Parkour (a elite sport and way of moving in big cities) was derived from super truckers thongs blowing out and their quick recovery Paul

I believe hip hop dancing may have got some lessons from super truckers Paul

Love my thongs, the thong look is especially cool when that piece that hooks between my toes blows out and I come to a crashing heap on the ground as I fall as gracefully as a hippopotamus on heat off the fuel taken So thinking about thongs they would be in the more advanced kit, not the starter kit Paul

So does 6 inches pass or is that just a wanna be Paul
