  5. amber side lite by 2nd axle / drive step ;; black spot lite above drivers door ;; second half of word haulage missing
  6. can't enlarge the picture for better look ; possibly a "pup trailer style " unit connects to the extension and 5th wheel . i mounted a 48 in slide 5th wheel on a twin screw. it didn't go that far off the frame rails.
  7. and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY Sir
  8. at 71 yrs old; i've been saying for a while now ;; the golden years aren't golden at all only the dr's reap the gold from my wallet . going for round two(yr later) of cordo shot in the knees next week. don't want to hear what eye dr tells me when i make the over due appointment. I can't stress it enough to the youngsters reading these posts"TAKE CARE OF THE BODY YOUR STUCK WITH" . the yrs go by faster than you'll know.
  9. they wanted JFK taken down; even if he could have moved one of the shooters would have finish the mission.
  10. being old enough to remember " where were you when news came" President John Kennedy has been assassinated . all the politicians have faults = so do we. JFK was a good pres, i still see lbj's face on the plane after the murder. all he wanted was to get it over with so he and his co conspirators can start the money making scheme( keeping nam going)JFK was standing in the way of. the warren commission "investigated " the plot; why is it they wait 75 yrs after the fact to tell the truth!!! 13 more yrs to go. simple we will all be gone that were around then. no one today cares about the lincoln assassination . joe jr an accident ??? nope . John. Bobby then john jr flying upside down = really . SORRY Grand kids
  11. seems to me there was a 13tooth and a 11 tooth bendix drive on starters
  12. top railing left side of barge missing upright rail rear railing to the right of towline missing upright rail second picture lower right corner "tie down " missing on ground.electric handle missing 2nd pic on steel beam plate between bolts; front concrete block (square one) has spot above dark circle missing 2nd pic. above the R in melbourn on deck a black (tie down/ G can ) missing in 2nd pic. above D in difference 1st pic has spot on up rite beam. come on tjc only 5 more to go!!LOL, if I studied this hard in school i might have stayed in college. that's another story.
  13. I'm confused (not first time ) is it a hyd system or air assist ?pitman arm has valve body and tie rod has an air cyl. it's been a number of yrs; can't recall hyd system being described
  14. heck; i don't feel tooo bad seeing the two i missed. eyes aren't good enough to see different plate numbers on mack #3 . did study the flag above mack #1 , didn't study it enough to see size difference just fact it was there. have best day possible. sun is shining day is great; waiting on phone call to let me know parts are in for a JD tractor i have apart. can't sit at computer on dry day;; LOL
  15. doesn't seem any one excepting the challenge , your not going to let me hang without showing the last two😁😄
  16. your statement " the motor spins" ; to be on the same page ; what motor spins ? starter motor spins or the engine motor spins. not trying to be a wise guy ;; just wondering. if the engine spins == different diagnostic area. if starter motor spins and engine isn't i would consider the starter has wrong drive gear. looking at the picture i will say I'm not a fan of the clamp style battery terminals . brand new OK down the road they create problems.
  17. on the jake swap; the exhaust rocker adjusting screws need to be changed also. mack adjusters are screw driver slots. when a jake is installed no access with screw driver. the adjusters are changed to a 3/8 or 7/16 head ?. i have found if you take a small center punch and punch marks on the valve cover or jake spacer, the rubber gaskets don't slide out and leak. basically the jake is an add on;; the dynatard is built in.
  18. 2 to go;;; LOL breaktime ;; do i qualify for a shot (jack daniels) no beer
  19. first line lower left on road ALSO missing a white dot
  20. yellow mack intake snorkel different sizes
  21. sorry i haven't been here LOL digging out the magnifying glass . and the eye drops😁
  22. If you have access to a welder. i would go with a piece of 2 1/2==3 in channel making a set closely resembling the original till a set hopefully can be found. won't be cast but also won't be a bought bracket that looks out of place. just sayin
  23. Ya know it's another case of "live and learn" ;; all the new trucks i prep and worked on. never put 2&2 together with the ST vs S . a twin screw chassis usually long wheel base was an S signifying a straight truck while the typical tractor (twin screw ) had the ST. 50 plus yrs later and the ole Polack is still learning. 😁
  24. I don't feel so bad now about the 59 in vin #. I knew the second/third number reference to engine ;; the 59 wasn't a common # I remember; 607// 685// etc. sure do enjoy the knowledge this forum shares.
  25. any pictures? i got the U-Umodel; got the 6-600 series; got the ST -twinscrew; 1081- vin with only 80 same made before it. what is a 59(659)? what yr?
