    good points(as always) by GW ; 4 in inside yoke sounds ok BUT should the rears drop ; that 4 now becomes 2 or less . I recently did a transmission change= over on a IH ,, a real cramp!! 6 plus 2 to an 8LL. total driveshaft change over /rebuilt.

    Gess it's only my thoughts ::BUT take away their keys and proper alcohol; do they know where they slept, for me (only) a sleeping bag on God's ground works, small tent in Maine with sleeping bag next to a couple trees so moose wouldn't walk over you at night total heavenly.

    and it would be /Can still be an HONOR to be part of such a gathering. why in a house large enough ??? i like the idea of open door garage and "find a 5 gal pail to park your ass"" ;; have a drink and find some food. NO politics ;BS ; foods friends and Mack conversation.!! now I have a positive to look forward too (but soon).

    total agree. the 15 (615/ R615 etc usually designated a V8). not updated on the B's having Cummins = still having a B6-??? Cummins on a number of occasions brought the model to a B7????. back then little attention was paid to the model designation . it was a B / R / U / whatever. attention to the unit and drivetrain NOT what specific model it was called.

    leaving the inner seal ; keeping the grease/oil bearing combo ; it's more important to tip the wheels allowing gear oil to reach the outer bearings. not much of an oil cavity in hub of combo set up with axle removed. combo seal set up should always be tipped. easier / better to update to one seal ; both bearings oil.

    "overthinking" is the signs of a real mechanic. any one can build . a real mechanic ALWAYS has the back thought of - what if !!

    Back when mem were men ! no AC ; engine right behind the operator ; who by the way worked for way less then todays workers having AC ; enclosed cab; hyd machine = two joy sticks ;;;; not three levers; two pedals and miles of cable / R I P ;; Robert Rich . a man I grew up to respect to the highest degree, could run his Baycity with such expertise = feet and hands movement to keep the boom/ bucket all in tacked .
  18. mechohaulic

    on those VERY rare occasions I find myself at table with others. steak on menu ;I order medium/rare for the sake of others. one instance while in a group and ordering rare ; as I cut it the blood ran ! another poor soul who had ordered well done (and it was ), besides pushing his plate away , almost barfed at the table. LOL find it easier NOT to go out with others ; LOL
