  1. Sorry to hear that life can be dam hard for some I am just over in Franklin I don't know if you can get around but if you are going to the truck show in Cherokee and need help getting there I can help send me a PM I'm not on Face book or anything
  2. It is possible I have found gobs of silicone and rust chunks blocking the cooling tubes but that should not affect the coolant temperature overall but would affect the oil temperature more if it was severely blocked it could restrict the overall flow of the cooling system slightly
  3. It sounds like you are describing the oil cooler

    Finally out of the shop engine overhaul complete with new crank, new undercarriage tracks and final drive seals it was a lot of work but it’s ready for it’s second life
  6. Pictures will not upload for whatever reason but if you do not find a leaf I have a pair of good springs length 68 inches height 9 1/2 inches that I can part with
  7. I have a pair of fairly new camel back springs there are some different length and thickness variations for the most common and also a part number stamped into the end of the T on the main leaf if you can find it I will get a picture and post tommorow
  8. A spiral fluted reamer and magnetic drill press are the best way to bore the holes out
  9. I have that same cast trunion stand on my B755 and have seen it on a B61 and B615 I believe all were 38,000 trunions with rubber bushings
  10. Best wishes for your birthday thanks for all your knowledge
  11. Here is one of the Fords with a 3208 and little 13 speed it was also a dump truck it needs a new home if there are any Ford fans out there

  14. A little late but best wishes
  15. Very nice I like the long hoods as well good find!
  16. Difficult to see for sure but I would say spicer 8341 not many other choices and very popular in the west coast trucks
  17. I am an independent not liberal or conservative I vote not for party and partisanship but for who will represent the people in my district we have a lot of issues in this area especially after hurricane Helene, only facts matter the alternative facts are just political trash I do not know the Obama comment you talk about I have a Canadian friend now American citizen who came here to go to vietnam as an american army soldier after 4 years in vietnam he moved to the Air force and finished his career as a Cost guard rescue diver it is sad to see what is going on in this administration and the insult to our Canadian allies
  18. The biggest draft dodger is once again the commander in chief four deferments for continued education and finally the fifth, bone spurs really? The military finally just gave up on him it's a sad story
  19. Nice truck ,Your spoke hubs are a Mack thing not only stronger than budd rims but they also let more air flow around the brake drum which is very important, to change them out you would halve to locate some hubs that fit your spindle look for the axle number and check bearing numbers to make sure the hubs will fit there are a lot of variations out there changing out the front axle is also difficult with spring center spacing and steering knuckle offset for the drag link to the pittman arm
  20. WTF ? 118. Dollars for 2 wheel seals thanks corporate America
  21. Because facts are facts and alternative facts are bullscrit liberal or conservative facts are reality the rest is garbage
  22. My 865 has the odd square flange and takes a special clamp and flange pipe double check this and post part numbers if you can for replacement parts mine are missing thanks
