  1. So Sutton or Kango cobalt bits with Sutton venom cutting fluid Cutting fluid sticks like doo doo's to a blanket, so I can drill upside down and inside out with no dramas Trefolex also works really good as well Or a grinder also works pretty well Paul
  2. Dunno, my 81 Thermodyne is the same colour Paul
  3. I found for tough going cobalt bits are the go You can't sharpen them as the cobalt is a coating and once you grind it off the are back to a normal drill bit I can drill hardox steel okay with cobalt bits were as a normal high speed steel drill just goes blunt in a few seconds Paul
  4. PAI made these and as far as I know still do, as well as all the gears and at least some of the shafts Paul
  5. I dunno about those brands, I generally go for Sutton which is a Australian brand Paul
  6. Nope sorry Most times the link bends slowly overtime As long as the bag is fairly pumped with no wrinkles they work okay Paul
  7. Hell of good surprise last night, jumped the Australian truck forum and Swishman has bunged these up for me https://www.hcvc.com.au/forum/truck_Chat/21299-can-this-b-the-famous-mrs-mack Clickty click on the link to see the sexy beast Once again, Tah muchly Swishman Paul
  8. As the others have said, lools great Better than anything I could do, I thought maybe gunna fill the screw holes as this would make it easier to keep looking schmik And I do like the idea of the emblem branded in Paul
  9. 101 is a good run Cities across the world are always in a hurry, I just avoid them if I have to Paul
  10. Vlad I didn't know you couldn't get Facebook at the moment, I think thats what your saying And like Vlad, I have to many projects on at the moment and Australia and the leftards running the show have made it almost impossible to import trucks into Australia as of July 1st this year But yes that G model does look good Paul
  11. Start from the middle and work outwards, slowly come up in torque over maybe 3 goes around And no thats not in the book but just what I was taught Paul
  12. LOL Yeah no proof reading done at all Amyway a thong goes on your foot out here
  13. Bugger me, no good at all I always always always get thongs completely finished to a certain stage before stopping, my memory is not good enough to remember minor things so I have learnt by my own mistakes to finish things to point before stopping Yeah I know that makes no sense at all but I know what I mean lol Paul
  14. I would think the weights should be pretty close Someone smarter than me will know for sure I would hunt around a bit more for the correct piston I don't really think mixing up parts like this on the rotating assembly is a good idea Just keep on looking for the correct piston is my advice Paul
  15. Could also measure the front and rear sides as well I feel all four measurements should be the same Paul
  16. Well that would of added some excitement to the day I wonder if the truck needs a bit of a drive to settle in That been said you could easily run a tape measure at the top of the wheels and at the bottom and the measurements should be equal Paul
  17. Looks the goods to me I can't imagine anyone having a wooden tilt tray in Australia I doubt a wooden tray has been used on a heavy truck in Australia in the last 20 or 30 years Steel is normal now on everything these days Tray looks really neat and tidy, you've gotta be proud of the result Paul
  18. They had some impressive gear Paul
  19. That is a stunning truck, super impressed as is the forman in the photo, thanks for sharing Paul
  20. Mech, I'm getting concerned about these hairy chested Aussie shelias mentioned earlier Now you mention trans and drag, perhaps Crocodile Dundee was onto it years ago when he checked the tackle before chatting up a bird 🤔 Paul
  21. Thanks Brocky, I'll do some digging around and see what I can learn Paul
  22. A different P word came to my mind Joey We've spun this topic off into the ditch Paul
  23. Australian Macks are a bit different than Yanky ones, a little more hairy chested and less Tesla like lol Australian trucks sit higher and have more exposed none slippery stuff like gay mirrors on the bonnet that all U.S. trucks seem to have Even the Anthem doesn't have all gay pride crap that the U.S. ones appear to have Paul
