    I always tell these young punks with these well casings for stacks on these pickup trucks that they look so stupid and that stacks belong on semi truck not pickup trucks . I think the stacks on pickup trucks is about as bad as the balls hanging front the back bumper ! they tell me its cool I gues im not cool then LOL!

    No my old Mack is not for sale I have a gantry I'm selling I no longer use it I used it to install service bodies on new trucks. It comes with a spreader bar that adjusts and two hooks for service body pick up.and it comes with the trolley and chain fall the trolley is a good one not a cheap china . The chain fall is a cheaper one but has always worked flawlessly. It measures 17 ft wide x 10 ft tall the I beams are 6x6 x3/8 in thick I would like to get 1,500.00 for it I have more than that in it I am open to reasonable offers. You can send me a pm or call me at 419-595-2512 anytime between 8 am and 5pm

    That shit does make a guy sick, I bought a 82 cruiseliner awhile back for parts I got it home it runs and drives good needs it's share of work but couldn't bring myself to part it out so I kept it and bought new frame rails for my rs . One good thing about all this parting out crap going on is the trucks we all have and cherish will someday have a value that's crazy because there will be so few .

    Thanks joe. That makes perfect sense ! When I was a kid u models were everywhere and I always wondered why they were like that.

    I know this May sound dumb but what is the purpose of the offset cab on a u and dm models? I have heard so many different things is it for better vision and the cab can sit farther ahead?

    If you have good coolant filters and change them on a regular basis regular non pre charged antifreeze is fine . There is no need for precharged coolant in a system with coolant filters they are pre charged

    My dad bought one of those when I was a boy . It was our first truck with a turbocharger it had an ntc cummins we thought it was a power house. The truck still works today it pulls a lowboy and a dozer it was a 73 as well. I don't think trucks of today we will we be able to say the same in 40 years from now
