You know I don't really care what someone does in their private life. But why put it up in front of kids? When I went to school the teachers never shared their sex lives with us. Thank God they didn't, because a lot of them were ugly and weird as shit

I just did a quick lookup and it looks like that is also used by Mercedes Benz It looks like the replacement is a 2418455386 plunger and barrel https://www.goldsupplier.com/provide/p161871753.html

I remember the B81 sitting up Ted's place without a body on it. The GMC if I remember correctly was gasoline and it came from a bridge commission somewhere south of here. I think like Delaware, Maryland, or Virginia. What ever happened to the GMC? The last time I saw Ted was in the 80's right after he sold out. He was part of that Airstream Trailer Club and him and his wife were going traveling

This Would Be Great to F With People

You guys are all mean. You want to hurt Johnny 5 -
It really sounds more like a problem in the governor and not something in the pump. The plungers and barrels might be worn, but I don't think that was what was causing your problem.
-
I'm kinda curious. What was the reason for having it rebuilt?
-
That's the tag on the governor. Do you have the numbers off the side of the pump?

Ted sold his place in about 85 or 86, and the last time I was in that truck it had a quad box in it. I remember it being spliced together with frame rails from something else. That was his truck, he loved that thing. Ran lots of miles and did a lot of heavy recoveries back in the day. I was talking to him one time long ago and he told me to stop up and see what he bought. We went in a barn and he had a 1950 something all wheel drive GMC with an 850 Holmes on it. The truck didn't even have 2000 miles on it and was probably 30 years old at the time. It was impressive

Johnny 5 is alive

Pump should be a Robert Bosch 6P7321. I think you need to find a real pump shop
-
Actually not a bad looking truck when you got it, looks great now. How bad was the hood broken?

JC McHugh had at least one of them https://www.mchughlocomotive.com/historic-locomotives-saved-from-the-flames-of-the-scrappers-torch-by-mchugh/

Yeah could be a fail

The biggest thing I ever ran was one of these 44 tonners when I worked for McHugh on their Tyburn RR division. We handled lots of stuff for the USS Fairless Works there. That one had 6-71 Detroits in it.

It seems to be way overkill if they are just using it to move a couple railcars around a yard. I moved a lot of that stuff and MOW equipment on my Landoll and even a 6 car mover only has like a 100 HP engine if even that much. I'd love to know the "why" behind building it
-
Years ago at Certified Steel we had a Trackmobile 2TM for moving railcars in the yard. It had a Willys Hurricane 4 cylinder in it, and to get traction it picked up on the rail car's coupler. But it was only rated for 2 railcars
-
Just saw the picture. Can't find a story behind it or where it is. Seems like it'd be too light to get any traction. Maybe it picks up on the coupler like a car mover?
-
Yeah, but on a Landoll, with those little tires?
-
With 55,000 rears? It's going to be heavy. My Trail King TK70SA trailer weighs 21,000. Hooked up to the R Model with 38 rears or the LTL9000 Ford , with chains, dunnage and ready to go it's almost 40,000
-
1200r24 tube types can be bought pretty cheap in China if you order 100. I wonder how much it costs to actually get them here though. 24" Dayton rims are hard to find in good condition also. Wonder if anybody still makes them
-
That was my friend Ted Covington's truck. He had a towing company on 611 and if I remember right School House Lane in Pipersville Pa. Loved Mack. He used to say Mack was the only real truck, everything else is just something some guys put together in a garage. Big guy, strong like an ox, loved ice cream lol
