  1. there were no riots or anything else because we do not do that kind of thing. we let the police take care of this, and hope the liberals will not let him free because he suffers from post traumatic stress syndrome brought on because he is black in a white mans world.
  2. i had that happen in my 64 bananacuda with a 273 engine that was worked. it was pushing a little under 350hp on dyno. flywheel came through the floorboards and took a section of my right leg as it went past and through the roof.
  3. WOW. nice rig at an even better price. did you pick it up yet Mike?
  4. Sounds like it may be hooked up to truck brakes instead of trailer brakes
  5. every one i have ever seen or know that has one always has issues with 3-7 jumping out of gear. my granite was so bad after the third trans we put an 18 speed in it.
  6. all but one of the 8ll trans trucks i ever drove had this problem. i think the 8ll is the absolute worst trans ever made. 10, 13, 15 and 18 speeds never had that issue.
  7. when i was shop steward, sexual harassment was not a concern. since i only had male drivers.
  8. steal. either hours, or product. show up on drugs or drunk. then fail to pass rehab. receive usually 4 or 5 writeups/reprimands. take too many unapproved days off. failure to report accident/vehicle damage.
  9. thanks guys. this will give me something to go on. i need 13 foot for each side.
  10. as the title says, i am looking for the brush type things used on trailers, mostly UPS, Fed Ex, and USPS to cut down on water spray from the tires. i am not even sure what it is called, but i would like to put it on the sides of our tri-axle dump trucks to try to keep the body cleaner. the quarries and asphalt plants we go to use recycled water for dust control, and the trucks come out covered with muddy water spray.
  11. the big problem i had with the "K" was the 14 foot full "U" blade machine full of fuel with that big blade weighed 123,000 lbs. so it would sink is soft spots. but that big blade could carry and push 2 tandem loads of sand. i used to feed two excavators with that one machine, and we would load out 100 loads of sand, or clay a day. and the excavators never waited for material either.
  12. exactly. people are cheap and would rather spend $5 for a china part than $25 for an american made part. so there are no more american made parts. even though you will replace that china made part 10 times before you have to replace the american made part.
  13. i try to buy american made whenever possible, and flat out refuse to go near a wallyworld or equal store. when it comes to auto parts, i do #1 ford/motorcraft. #2: mexico made. i have had so many china parts new out of the box bad i just bypass the china stuff.
  14. exactly . 99% of anything bought in the United States comes from China. if China wants to cripple up, they will just stop shipments for a month or so. the United States people will fall apart without their cheap china stuff to buy. even our "american made" production would come to a crashing halt, because most "american made" products have about 40-50% chinese components in them. with some things like electronics having even higher percentages. so china can declare war on the US, never fire a shot, and still win.
  15. there ain't gonna be any war with china. if any politician is stupid enough to piss china off, they will just stop shipping EVERYTHING. and the United States will fall apart withing a month because everything is now made in china.
  16. the 8H we had had round rops .that looks more like the 8K we had.
  17. me thinks the feller from down under is correct.
  18. it does not say banned, but i see where Barry banned her on August 21, 2017
  19. well the banned user still shows, so gearhead can not post in any threads. . both names show last log in 12 hours ago.
  20. where did you find this info? i just did a search and gearhead is still banned from posting,
  21. what hillery , obama, or any other politician did that would get any of us peons locked up in Leavenworth is standard operating procedure. politicians are above the law and can do anything they want, because they write the laws. this is why we need term limits, and make them regular peons just like the rest of us once out of office.
  22. would you care to let us that have no idea what you are talking about know what you are talking about?
  23. ONE LAST TIME.....DROP IT OR THIS THREAD WILL BE LOCKED.
  24. lets just drop it before this thread gets locked please? remember, beating a dead horse only gives you a big mess that someone eventually has to clean up
