    My wife is in the bed with Bronchitus. So I am tending to her as needed.. So far she hasnt snapped at me, so I guess i'm doing a good job.

    good point about the gearing.

    Yes sir, I used to do mobile cutting when I worked for Mack dealerships.. If I was to do that today, I would want to set the liners to spec as part of the service.

    I guess my point to them was a tight fit so the bed would'nt loosen up, and shear the bolts off..

    I bought a mid-stop counter bore cutter a few years ago. I only have a Mack E-7/ E-tech cutter head, but I can get other styles if I ever build a different brand of engine.. the tool and the head cost me $2,850.00 Its an american made copy of the $7,000.00 kent-more model.

    Mech, woould ou believe me if I told you that when I started fixing Macks only 25 years ago, that My mentor taught me about body bound bolts, and in years past, when I suggest using body bound bolts I get funny faces because they dont know about them, and then I hear, well I will just use grade 8 bolts, then I try to explain how the shoulder of the body bound bolt works.. I just had this convo, 2 months ago with 2 co-workers who were putting a steel flat bed on an F-450 with a gooseneck ball in it. The know -it-all guy said it wasnt neccesary. anyway, we'll see if the bed loosens up, the owner pulls 15,000 pounds with it..

    fjh, I feel your frustration. I actually use 'Sta-Bil', but I also crank both genny's up every other month. I walk by then everyday, so cranking them is easy, i shut the fuel valve after a minute and let them run dry.. It's not a perfect way to combat our crappy gasoline, but it works for me. I sleep with a C-PAP, so it is vital that my house Genny runs good.

    Next time you need to know some useless info, just ask, I likely will have the answer.

    GW, That sounds like a heck of a good deal.. Glad you are not just scrapping them. I recently had an offer to get 10+ E-Tech engines and (6) T-2090 Mack transmissions. My plan is to freshen up the transmissions for re-sale, and try to build good solid long blocks for re-sale, and sell some parts as well. My friend does not want to scrap them. I have built 2 mack enignes for him, and he trusts me to do right by him with these units. Thanks for letting me borrow this post.. hope you find a good home for them.. Jojo

    since its a site truck, can you get 2 peices of inner frame from double frame truck, and overlap the cracks? then weld the crack shut after the overlay is in? A full frame replacement is a lot of work, even on a short truck like yours.. I know JoeH can atest to that...

    well said GW..

    Bob, G-hina, comes from Alec Baldwin making fun of how President Trump say's, China... It sounds like G-hina.. It's too bad that I know this useless info..

    They are High dollah, But are also really nice..my little 10K powers most of my house, but not al, and certainly not all at once.. we lose power about 6 times a year. There are a lot of trees and 'Crack heads' that take out the lines in my area..

    I think they were made by Marmon Harrington, I have only seen a few,RD's set up for plowing airports.

    Bob, the guys are right.. I dont have an ATS but, I do very well to switch over correctly... maybe someday I will get an ATS or mabey just a Manual one...

  21. Joey Mack

    Bob, Just curious,, Do you know how to put a double 30 breaker in your house panel ( if there is an open slot for one) ? If so, you can install a good safe plug outside the panel to backfeed the panel, and put power to the house. You may not be able to run everything, but you will be able to keep the fridge, lights, and wi-fi, working. obviously I dont know what utilities you have, but what i'm saying is doable... Jojo
