  1. For sure For sure
  2. CH is a Set back axle CHU is The set forward axle CHN looks almost just like a CHU to me but maybe the hood is shorter. Now as far a the tech side of it There's plenty of guys on here that can tell you all about that. Maybe Joey Mack or MackPro can elaborate for us.
  3. Yeah I didn't place in that Pride and Polish virtual truck show but to have The truck I drive for a living appear on a CAT Scale card is even better!!
  4. I received an email from The CAT Scale company and "The Green Hornet " has been chosen for the Super Trucks limited Edition Series twenty two!!! The Series will Feature 60 trucks. In addition to receiving the whole Set I will also receive 200 cards of My Truck to give out to whoever I want!!.
  5. Marmon was just like Studebaker all hand built and very nice.
  6. If there's one thing on my 2016 CHU613 Pinnacle I could change it would the steering shaft linkage set up. The plate it hooks to blocks convient access to the alternator and such. Also I would give the MP8 atleast 500horse out of the factory. Other than the DPF emissions junk I'm very happy 😊 with the truck overall.
  7. Yeah I've got this one painted the original Ford Blue. It's got a Edlebrock Aluminum intake with a Holley 650 4-Barrel. Factory Ford Manifolds etc. I'm thinkin 🤔 about doing a Rebuild on it. It Came factory in my Daddy's 79 Bronco Ranger XLT then was put into mine after I blew a piston ring in mine or something to that effect lol.
  8. I've got a Ford 400 V8 I've been contemplating on putting in a pulling machine of some sort
  9. If it lasted more than 4 hours report to the nearest hospital 😆 🤣 😂 😹. Or that should git your picture on the Cover of The Rollin' Stone 🤔 😉 🤣 😜 😀.
  10. It's just sad to see how society is going these days 😪. Anyone who believes That Joe Biden is really running this country and is not just a talking head/fall boy for a hidden agenda please stand on your head and spit out nickles. I'll be along later with my trick or treat pumpkin bucket to collect the nickles lol.
  11. There prolly was a manifold tucked under there somewhere and I do remember the big belt on it as well.
  12. Hmm I think I've heard and seen a setup like this in real life lol to steal electricity and keep the bill low lol not exactly the safest route to go but effective lol.
  13. That's awesome. I know my Vocational lab teacher did it with a blower from a DD and all he did was turn it a certain way and maybe a few other slight mods and it bolted right up.
  14. Hey ingenuity at its finest lol When you know you know 😉 😜
  15. Fun fact: A Blower from a DD will Infact bolt on to the top of a Chevrolet 350 V8
  16. I zoomed in the best I could it does infact look like the same design but it looks to have some sort of early suspension on it. From what I could find asking Google it looks to be a Fruehaf trailer.
  17. Oh yeah saving the environment till one of those propane trucks gits in an accident or springs a leak past the shutoff valve. Yeah I drove acouple of those they were Volvos. Kinda unnerving with 3 tanks right behind the cab in a box.
  18. Almost sounds to me like the power divider isn't engaging correctly. The dump truck I drove had a system on it that was better than the divider itself. It was almost like a Transfer case that was air activated and locked all axles together and allowed the truck to go through just about anything. I can't remember the name of it but it was a full locker system.
  19. Barry I love the new Set up. I think it's easier and more user friendly
  20. I look at it this way this MP8 is no throw away engine or is The Green Hornet a throw away truck either. I love my old 3406 and 4 1/4 Kitty Cats and my 14.0L 60 series Detroits and the older 60 series as well. In my years of driving I've driven alot of them. 855 BC Cummins is another favorite of mine especially with a 15spd overdrive behind it. But as far as new engines go I stand behind my MP8. Bout the only trouble we've had out of The Green Hornet is with the DPF system nothing really major motorwise and she's got 741,000 on her.
  21. MP8 with a 13spd is my favorite 😍 485hp set to cruise at 77mph. 300 plus inch wheel base Ooooooooh Yeeeeeeeaaaah Baaaaaaaby!!!! Walkin' The Dog
  22. Oh yeah because they still need them for the autonomous trucks if the system says it's too bad for autonomous driving lol 😆 🤣 😂 😜.
  23. Or How these Autonomous trucks keep thinning out the populations across the nation 🙄 Oh but we can make truck drivers obsolete lol. C'mon man!!!
  24. Check Facebook market place as well
  25. I owned a 1979 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT with a 400M big block Holley 4 Barrel 4wd with a C6 transmission. Thing weighed almost 3 tons And would do just about anything I needed it to. My Dad had one when I was younger and we did all kinds of things with it as well even hauled farm animals in the back a couple times. Can't beat them old trucks from back then.
