  1. Hell, try Gorilla tape, and let me know how it holds.. I havent used that product yet..
  2. Looks like and E-6.. so you will need some SAE Super Glue, E-7's use metric Super Glue. 6 cans of brake clean, a new roll of Duct Tape, and a torch.. Good luck.. Jojo
  3. Mech.. my old timer gave me the nickname 'Clevis' 20+ years ago.. I was chasing a front brake issue on a late 70's DM.. after an hour or so,. Well.. it was a rusted clevis pin.. Too funny, and true..
  4. Is it me, or does the frame look twisted in the second picture? Maybe do like Mechohaulic said and swap the brakes and drums to see if the issue follows .. this test is free. Buying brakes and drums gets expensive quick.
  5. I would like to be there also . I think I would jack the drives up and try adjusting the brakes till they just barely scrub, kinda like drums brakes on a pick up truck. Then test drive it.. it is tough when you are not there to see the issue.. jojo
  6. anyone can be arrested.. Being 'convicted' is the difference... I hope that in his 'Mugshot' he is smiling with his thumb's up.. you know how he does.. It's a joke, and another weak attempt at crushing his chances in 2024.. The crazy thing is... The Dem's, are going to TAKE the WIN anyway.. they proved that our votes wont add up to a republican WIN in 2020.. I bet JoeMala wins with 100,000 votes next year..
  7. O.A.N./ Real Americas Voice/ and NewsMax... seem to be on par with our mindset... I know that fox News went 'Woke'.. I truly believe that these 3 networks, will stay on our side.. Just check them out and decide for yourself.. Jojo
  8. It should be a boost for him.. the sad part is that, we are not able to talk to 200-300 million Americans to hear the REAL TRUTH.. we only have news channels... in the last 2 years. I have been a loyal watcher of "NewsMax".. I hope they stay with their agenda.. Jojo
  9. The Klan gave away enough money to other countries, that would make all of us millionaires if it was divided among all U.S CITIZENS. of course, that would weaken the Dollar.. or so they say.. I wouldnt mind being able to buy a small horse ranch for my wife and a new 1 ton truck and trailer for her, and live on 50+ acres.. Oh well,, I guess I will just keep paying into the World Fund.. IN OTHER NEWS, It's a really nice day here today.. jojo
  10. I assume all of you have seen the news.. Our Great President TRUMP, is about to be arrested on Tuesday 3/21/23.. For a payoff to a Porn Star.. for what now?? She's a Porn Star.... of course if he threw her down and 'took' the kitty... of course.. arrest him.. aint no way.. This is another attempt to get rid of him because he is going to WIN in 2024.. jojo
  11. Here is my little diagram of how slack adjusters are mounted on your truck.. I hope others add to this tutorial.. I suggest you re-read the posts from Mechohaulic and MrsMackPaul, and MarkT... Jojo
  12. Call me.. 704 785 1738 when you get there
  13. Go to the front drive, and measure from the bottom of the spring, to the bottom of the frame rail
  14. good deal.. I have chores to do, so I may be slow to respond. Jojo
  15. your truck is a 2011.. So it has a Volvo frame. behind/below the fifth wheel on the left side is a larger hole with a screwdriver slot in the middle. the bolt next to the hole is the bolt that holds the suspensiion adjuster in place. that is where you make the adjustment. Let us know if you are going to make an adjustment. I dont want to type all the info yet. jojo
  16. You can use a tool like this one. you need to know the brand of suspesion, Mack dealer should be able to tell you, buy just for the heck of it you can use thie measurement on this tool. you can use a tape measure to get close. also if you use the measurement on the tool and find the frame rail is much higher, its a good chance you are too high..
  17. See... We can remember things.. Now where did I put my Glasses??? Dammit...
  18. 516-277-3412.. 96 Pequot ln. East Islip N.Y. 11730.... -1973-1980..
  19. Mark has a good point also,,, I have seen guys run a tire up on a hub using one lug nut (rather than 2 opposing lug nuts half-and-half) and it pulls up really hard and can damage the pilots that keep the drum spinning true.. MACK321,, I wish you were doing this diagnostic... so that you could see the parts and possible damage to cause this issue.. jojo
  20. I build these with (re-man) heads, turbo, injectors, cam kit, water pump, air compressor,oil pump, oil cooler service, engine kit without connecting rods, a paint job, new fuel hoses, new coolant hoses, filters, fluid's,[ labor ($5,000.00)] ............ (Machine shop cost's can vary the price) (Engine harness repair or replacement can vary the price) around,---- $25,000.00 (U.S.D.) I used to do this just a few years ago at around $18,000.00 Jojo
  21. I have seen this happen with incorrect drums.. like putting hub piloted drums on a budd wheel hub.. many years ago... I dont remember the inner diameter, of 2 types of drums....
  22. Yes Paul... Good Call... Hell, that's poetic..
  23. I wonder if the ride height is too high and causing the rear axle to have a light load on it. He did say "Bobtailing". -Paul asked if the S-Cams moved freely. -Mechohaulic mentions slack adjusters and adjustment. and air line size.. I hope all 8 drive tires are the same size.. I think you should check what Paul and Mech, said, as well as the ride height adjustment.. jojo
  24. Mark,, That picture with General Milley, really upsets me.. Hopefully, all this 'fast tracking' of freaks, will just be too much for normal American's, and it will go away.. Guys like us are tired of this Sh!tshow that the Biden Klan is putting on... jojo
