    Ive soaked it with crc on and off for two days, i dont have an air hammer and in fact am not sure what one is, have heard of them but. i borrowed a ball wedge from local mech but was a fraction too small. have tried belting arm from all angles/sides but without luck. the ram behind axle, when i tried to remove nut from ball - broke two of my half inch drives, i gave up and took whole bracket off instead. ill resoak again o/n and have round 12 with it - see if it gives in morning. i know heats a no no but am running out of puff. cheers

    gday, does anyone have any unique ideas on how to get a ball joint to release from steering arm. im trying to take out power steering front ram but cannot get this thing to release, tried bashing with two hammers, supporting arm with jack and hitting down onto pin/nut, didnt want to but might need heat. any tricks of trade appreciated. cheers ellis

    thats the one, fella from barossa bought it from wa then decided he didnt want it, too far gone he reckoned. ive been in contact with original owner in nsw a bit over last few yrs - so know its working history, he also sold a flintstone last yr.

    Gday, i havnt seen any content by Rob lately, does anyone know what hes up to?

    gday, guessing that might be one of the reasons they sold it, definately sounds like govener is hunting, if pump ok, might not be too dear to fix, and imagine theres a fair few old pump/goveners floating about over there might just swap it out for 40hrs yr. cheers

    gday, ive had problems starting my 673c when left for a few days or more, might take few tanks of air to get her going then no problems. Am guessing its a leak in the return fuel lines - they look ok but when i pump the hand plunger i get diesel leaking out around the plunger itself... is that normal or could that be the cause of air leak? next question if it is that, how much do they sell for from mack dealers? any input would be appreciated, i dont want to change out all the lines then have to replace hand plunger. cheers ellis

    Very enjoyable, interesting segment Vlad - nice photos, Good luck with the macks. How hard is it for you to get mack parts over there? cheers ellis

    Nice looking truck, shows the difference in prices australia/usa, if it was a bucket of junk itd sell for 18k here, in that nick, theyd probably ask anything from 30-60,000. And take into account that the "dollars" are pretty close now. Reckon if i lived in the us id have quite a few trucks. cheers ellis

    Not sure if same as the r600 flintstone, think approx 15/8" or 17/8" diam? i couldnt get any here from mack so went to local rubber store and bought grommets and touched em up with grinder to fit, cost around $12 all up.
