The width between the frame rails depend upon a chassis model. I.e. R-model has one distance and MH or RW another. So answering your question is impossibly not knowing the truck's model. Also a point the basic distance between the rails at the rear is established by the bogie stand (for Camelbacks). For example a standart R-model has its stand with two steel stripes welded along each side and singe rails of 1/4" thick added to the sandwich gives you 33-1/4 overall width. If the rails are 3/8 for a RD-model you have 33-1/2 because their extra thickness goes to the outer sides. If you order double frame the inserts fit inside the main rails and those spoken stripes on the stand go away. So the width keep its original size. This approach allows you to count out the particular width for a truck with heavy rails (which supposed to be used with heavy rears you pointed out) if you know the width for basic rails of the model you deal with.

Being you I wouldn't get really bothered about photos with such attraction of girl's attention

I sign up the petition. Would like to see the folks back. Some suitable probation time or other limitations seem reasonable. Not ready to share my mind about Teamster since I never saw his (or her?) crytical activity in person. Both options to allow or block further make sence.

Don't you have the front engine mount attached onto the front cover cranck seal extension? My Lanova doesn't allow to install the mounting brace when the pulley is on.

Really interesting to see. And those "custom built" or hand built cabs are surprize to me. Probably make sence with low production and expensive equipped units. Many thanks for sharing that bra.

Excellent! Very impressive!

Could be a different port connection scheme or just a piston stuck in the replacement valve during the storage time. I'd start from studying the truck's air diargam to figure the way the lines should be connected to the valve. The most valves of the period are typical and too possibly could be swapped maybe reconnecting or blocking some of the ports.

Depending on what you relate it to

Neat B-model. And I like all those monitors put on the table. In fact this matter is a bit deeper than it could appear. Not only he-animals mark their territory. She-animals do it either in some cases. Thanks for the pictures. Like to see activities you share.

Sure no blame to anyone, just a point of view.

You don't if you are a ostrich.

Best B-day wishes!

Great purchase! Congrats!

Are you sure your AIR tank is 24" round? That's a typical size of a FUEL tank OD.

This makes sence to me. If real life applys jails I see no reason sites can't do such either.

I sure do agree with this. Just hope for maximum possible moderator's correctness.

But looking the pictures it seemed to me that cab was not brand new but freshened up or rebuild. Weld seam along the rear edge of the floor panel looks like rust goes from there.

Yup. I can belive if ban put on a person there was some strong reason to do so. But banning a whole lot of long time and active members with multy thousand of posts and multi thousand likes seems as a go over a really sharp corner. Also some forums have a Ban List thread where every banned person is announced with a reason and a term of ban. And this last point is also the last point in my post since I think a member shouldn't be banned forever in a case such an action applied to him for the first time. We are all people and individuals have a tendency to cool off and figure the matters better.

Once again many thanks for the tips and suggestions. Actually I hate taking any assembly apart having no spares handy or at least supply facilities marketed on having the potentially needed ones in stock. In this particular case the truck is not in the main focus of my attention at the moment. I didn't plan to invest sufficient resources in it and hoped for an easy fix to get it running using an extra clutch set I took off an old E6 engine in the past. The pressure plate looked reusable by its look so I cleaned its working surface with sandpaper and wirebrushed the housing. Also I greased the bearing and hoped for no other issures. The presence and need of working with the set screw appeared as a surprize to me since I about never dealt with truck clutches before. Only car's ones and of pushing types. I googled 14 inch clutches locally and found out the stock offers were for only unknown brands the most probably China made stuff and cost of nearly US 1K what seemed of no sence. Their housings were stamped steel not cast iron as Eaton clutches are. I also found suitable clutch sets in PAI catalog, reasonably priced and seemed of the original style. I can order such one by a local PAI dealer but it usually takes 2-3 months to purchase. The shipping costs are cheap by this way but you have to pay by the waiting time. So all in all I'm still in the dilema. Seems like the way to go is removing the tranny and investigation. But currently I have the truck on its wheels and if I remove the gearbox I'd have its engine supported by a bottle jack and too probaly for a while. Doesn't look like a nice option being waiting first snow the other day by weather forecast.

Спасибо!

Yup. And the cab's LH front corner duplicates Superliner cowl, has square shape. RH corner is the same as a classis R-model has with depressing for air cleaner and its tube.

Two points got my attention. First I'm currently not able to disengage the clutch since the bearing has no travel or about no travel. Second I'm not sure I'd be able to find a different clutch assembly locally soon enough. Of what I learned something similar was used in 9400 and 9800 IH trucks which are common overhere and many parts are usually stocked for them.

Sounds very promising. I too hope turning of that wonder bolt will get me closer to the solution of my clutch issue. It's quite rainy the last few days. Would like to wait a bit for a better moment to sunbath under the truck. Once again, thanks to everyone for the support. I will update the post as soon as I get any news.

Wow, thanks. Sounds much easier than I expected. Will make a try.
