Well, since it is an ASET,. There won't be any plugs,,. Big hex caps instead..

just curious Brocky... When did schneider use those engines? I would be interested in finding pictures of the trucks.. jojo

Hey Onyx... "Wrong" should not be in your vocabulary.... just sayin'...

It is splash lubed.. proper oil fill technique is,, Power divider first, about a pint, then the side cover plug for the top reduction, then the rear plug that is missing, to fill the bowl.. then as Onyx said,, regular oil level checks are done at the rear plug in the banjo housing. the oil is delivered throughout the carrier by splash and a series of trough's that direct oil to the bearings, the spur shaft housing on top has ports that maintain the oil level in the top reduction. and the power divider in this case has ports that do the same. The bull gear dips oil from the bowl and brings it to the top reduction, notice the spiral on the thru-shaft... it carries oil the the power divider through the thru-shaft tube... then the oil in the power divider spills over into the top reduction as it is filled/circulated... I wrote all this, just in case they try to tell you a story of how it gets lubed.. Good luck with your claim.. jojo

Some really Cool Charlotte history... Next time I see one I will know where it was born and some of how it came about.. Thanks O.D.

I always felt that way when I used to transport Post Office Macks from Portland M.E. to Portsmouth New Hampster... Even topped out at 55mph. I thought I would be on my nose if I had to slam on the binders... jojo

Well, the Boys helped me sand and paint my rims and spacer's today.. It looks good for a 74 year old truck.. even thought the metal is pitted a little, and the best part is.... My juice brakes work. jojo

Good deal D.C.W. Can I get Opti-lube at NAPA? I have a diesel fork lift that could you a little love. It Has been my best employee for the last 12 years... Its full mechanical... jojo

No sir.. No more trucking for me.. I bet there are a bunch of guys in P.A. that would buy it..... jojo

yes. and I would also check the sensor for the flywheel. Typically they will start and run on one or the other... jojo

That's "Mack".. he is 4 years old.. He loves me more than my wife..

I pulled the 400 out after 2 years... It was too much.. I put the 350 back in, but i put the stock 400 cam in the 350 with new lifters.. it runs great and pulls good.. I use it locally.. I took the turbo 350 tranny out years ago, and put pedals and a saginaw granny gear 4 spd,.. I had the 400 with the 4 spd. and could burn the dual's with ease, just couldnt drive it like a work truck.. and in the rain, with that 400 I could spin every gear, which meant I could,,, wreck...

Hell yeah... When I put the hopped 400 in my "Old Blue" I called it a 4442... 400/4BBL//4spd/dual exh. that F'r was tough, and turned a lot of heads...

I keep it full of 'cookies'.. Damn Dog's.....

I wish I had one,, '67 I believe.. The cookie jar is an important tool in my shop.. When my boy's wont let me work, I toss 2 cookies out of the shop and get a few minutes of free time.. That last statement was Bullsh!t... they come right back for more cookies.. who am I kidding????

the Halo test is right.. and you are right Onyx... For me, this doesnt pass the 'smell test'... I think more info is needed.. there is no way 11 gal. of oil is colored by a quart of steering fluid.. If I am wrong..... well ok..

Nice to see you Onyx... I was just about to P.M. you...

By the way,,,, The 'B Model' with the service body on it, is a current working truck in Moorseville.. That kick's A$$ !!!!!

I keep a 'Cookie jar' in my shop too..... Just sayi'n,

ok,, I just saw the last part of your question... thank you Hayseed.. NO.... it should hold air... the rest of what i said is true..

Ricky,, It does both... It maintains a cab level... it will take air when needed and dump air when it is too much... It is a simple system... If you were to see inside the valve and how it works you would smack your forehead...

Ok Bob,, Just a little more 'Shop Talk'... this is the cheapo turn signal wand.... The chrome look doesnt fit the truck, but...... Whatever....

Ok TJC... Charlie, is tuckered out from workin hard, Tino, He's alway's ready to go,,, (Young'ns) and Mack,,, well.... he runs the show,, so He walks on His own path.. Gotta luv'em... Jojo

Well 1 'Ham' snuck in the picture..

Stanadyne... instead of Seafoam.. Put some in the fuel filters and the rest in the tank.. the mix is on the bottle... jojo
