    Only down 3k in 9 years not bad Jojo.I hate selling anything.We sold our 2 Hi lux pick ups and a Toyota Alteeza sports car to part fund the Mack.Talk about tyre kickers....guys offering less that half the asking price.I mean there always a bit of wriggle room on the price but less than half??? The guy who bought the Alteeza want his money back after 10 months because he cant get it through the yearly safety inspection.It passed 2 months before we sold it.Its clear he drove the bejasus out of it now hes had his fun he wants his money back!!!!He can F£€k right off..... Paul

    Yes the crane company has 24.5s on hub pilot rims.I'll keep looking.Guess Ireland is too small a market to stock odd tyres.Yip you do have to get good at sniffing out the unobtainable!!!.I understand the loss of speed and load carrying ability but this is a pure hobby truck,milage will be small.Thanks again. Paul

    Many thanks for that Geoff I know I may have misunderstood you with reguard to the tyre sizes.It seems I will have to go with hub pilot hubs and wheels as 24in tube type tyres are an absolute no no over here.It seems no one will import a small batch and no one is willing to work with split rims.Again many thanks for your help on this issue... Paul

    Quick question are tubeless rims available to replace 24in split rim Dayton spokes? Geoff Weeks and others already know the trouble Im having getting tube type tyres and I think the tubeless route is the only option as changing to hub pilot wheels is just too expensive. Paul

    Dont beat yourself over it Joey.We have a saying over here.."Use it or Lose it" Simply means if you aint done something in a few years you may not remember all the details.No shame in that..... Paul

    Welcome to BMT.Id say your best way to find information is to contact the Mack Historical Society.It'll take a few weeks for them to get back to you but they have most if not all Macks on file.Iv never seen a Mack bus so i'l say its verry cool...More pictures please. Paul

    Got these pictures of a B61 in a roll over accident in Holland today.No one hurt except the B61.Not a nice thing to happen... Paul

    Sounds like a great place to live to me...Growing up here in Drogheda city we had only one supermarket and loads of small shops selling anything and everything.Now we have 6 supermarket and very few small shops.The staff in the small shops knew all about what they were selling but now you'd be lucky to get a grunt outta the supermarket staff.....the times they are a'changein' to quote a famous singer..... Paul

    Me too bob,my old man was very fair but when he said you do something you done it no questions just get it done..... Paul
  24. cruiseliner64
    Thought about doing just that but I want to be sure with the steers anyway.If the rears blow its a hassle but of the steers blow....well..... I was in contact with a guy today who said army tires in that size should be available but would be very rough rideing.Hes getting me a contact number of a crane hire company who use tires in that size. Paul
