    That's a single axle with a tag. Six spoke on the drive and 5 on the tag. That was on here advertised a while ago. Looks kinda nice in the pictures , enough to make a guy curious

    Simple answer. He should have never been allowed to have a CDL. Period.

    Did you have the center bolts out ? If you did and had the springs apart and are using them, probably wouldn't hurt to take a flap disc and polish off the edges so the springs slide on one another. If they dig in, they'll break. Then you'll be taking it all apart again.

    You laugh, some a$$ hole will be saying something stupid like that. Pathetic what these media low lifes try spinning things like.

    Remember a few months ago everyone was laughing at the guy with the ten speed tutorial. 😏

    They like to rot under the plastic part where the wipers come through from the cowl too. '94 ??? lots of places it could be coming in. need to make friends with someone and start watching while running the garden hose on different places.

    Remember when 4000s and 9000s were as common a sight as a VNL now ? There a rare sight nowadays.

    Truck's a celebrity in it's own right. Thanks for the picture.

    Only if you're behind it.

    Your truck is a rather large spec compared to the Pig Pen truck. I would have liked to see it doing the job you said it was made for. Impressive piece of equipment doing a demanding job and likely made it look easy.

    🧐 Here I was thinking you were in Ireland. You're going at it like one of those guys in Pakistan. Nice work you're doing there. Holy cow, what a hitch that thruck had.

    I often thought at certain times it'd be nice to have both. in the day of the automated transmission it does free up the left foot. (as long as it's not up on the dash or windshield post displaying a Crock) Maybe this guy should post a couple pictures of the DK

    IDK Mech, get'n a pintle hook on that one is gonna be a challenge. 🤔now about those sparks and air bags.....

    So that's where the idea for big stacks came from.....who'd have guessed ? Be interesting to see detail of how they went from turbine to drive axle. Don't those turn at a high RPM ?

    They're popular. Not so much in a Mack with Mack rears. I've only ever seen one.
  18. Mark T
    You've seen them. They have an equalizing beam and a big rubber spring contained in a can in the center of it. 4 rods underneath and two like wishbones on the top.

    I don't ever remember seeing a Granite with 38s in it ???? Chalmbers ? If I had to guess, I'd bet this truck has 23-160s. Be interesting to see a picture of this truck's bogie. Come to think of it ???? I've personally never seen Chalmbers on anything in the less than 46,000 lbs range.

    Your place is a little like some kinda wildlife sanctuary.

    Put it together without the outside handle on. See what happens. If it works ? the rod from the push button is a hair too long.

    I think Cummins was 33 or 53

    Time capsule. What a nice truck.

    That wire that's grounded from the post on the alternator is not supposed to be grounded . The why it is and the path it should make back to the batteries ??? there could be several answers to that part . But it definitely shouldn't be that post on the alternator to ground. Hard one to see from a couple pictures and text, but might make way more sense to see where it got mixed up if able to see it in person. That wire could be correct in a couple different paths (hot to starter or hot to hot side of a solenoid or somewhere else they share a common juncture on some form of isolator) . It's not on one of them now though.
