  2. Thanks all for the B-day wishes. The hat came in handy today with that rocket having problems. Polished some aluminum on the truck and then went to the beach. Not the hot dog beach, better. Was a girls dance group there. Can't get the video for some reason, but did have two nice ladies let me take their picture

  7. First question is-why do they not stay adjusted.? There may be a metal band on top that is not tight or broken. Had that problem with one several years ago. Trying to find actual part name/number. was not expensive and fixed in ten minutes
  8. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ And you will need some $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Trying to find one first could be tough. dem Aussies love the MACK Trying to find a broker for something of that size.

  9. At the 2:00 mark, I believe the guy told the tow driver;"you tore the shit out of the frame" And the driver smiled
  10. Last ditch effort to try to remain significant in the world. Overall, navistar was hanging on via the smaller (Class 6 & 7) trucks. And the very large fine Uncle Sam hit them with, surprised in a way that they still any money. E Z Pack and related companies are a large player in the garbage world. Hope they don't get dragged down by "creative engineering"
  11. What the....... nevermind. I see your in tennesee
  12. Palm Beach County Sherrifs Office has a crew for truck inspections. They would just hang out near a large pit. Picking off trucks all day. I will say, some of those trucks needed to be parked.
  13. Well, it's done. second pin dropped with little problem. The only other problem, the mechanic wanted to change the inner bearings on drivers side. Thems a beotch to get the race out. I learned-Glad it is not a routine job like oil change or tires. Between helping/watching, learned quite a bit
  14. By now, the 2 piece POS radiator should have been replaced. That group of engines were very good. Not much computer control, but more computer monitor. You should get around 6 mpg
  15. What you doin hanging around the docks? waiting for the boatload of money from Prince Alduhar of Nigeria?
  16. That clutch return spring looks a little,,,suspicious
