    NAPA shows a 65442 parts number. Here are the specs and you can compare to your old shocks. Lower Mount: Loop Type 1 in. x 1 3/4 in. Shock Compressed Length: 17 in.

    Clicked a picture of Mike's Blue Arrow Mack at Macungie around 2014 or so. Mack EN 707 gasoline motor providing the power.

    He has a little bit of everything in his museum. A couple rare COE rigs for sure.

    Hey Hippy, this is eastbound so he would have been climbing through the hills to cemetery curve at the lake. Times have changed. Speaking of the lake, with the Rt 9 bridge detour now in place, cemetery curve is going to get a real workout for the next year. Hopefully it doesn't live up to its name.

    With snow on the side of Main St, Marlborough, NH, this Sterling tractor briefly pauses enroute to deliver a Bucyrus Erie to the jobsite.

    You could check with a PAI dealer for a cylinder or a rebuild kit.

    With such a quality prosecutor, no wonder Chicago has a crime problem.

    With the clarifier type, fill the canister with motor oil before you start the truck.

    Point of clarification. When I said B-70 series, I meant the 73, 75 and 77 trucks. The B-70 model gasoline equipped truck utilized the same dimensions of the B-61. The B-72 was gasoline powered and utilized the same hood with soft nose as the 73,75, 77. I think the aluminum radiator came out in 1957 and tubeless wheels were introduced in 1955.
  16. j hancock
    The early B-70 series did not have the larger aluminum radiator so the standard B shell was used. The aluminum radiator came along to allow for higher HP engines to be properly cooled. Production numbers of the standard B shell 70 series, I would speculate, is pretty small.

    The "box" off to the side could be a governor considering the provision for the use of a wire seal. The governor I have worked on had plugs that had to be removed to get to the adjustment screws. The adjustment screws on yours are probably under the plate. As Paul said, there is a provisions to get some heat to the carb so it won't freeze during operation. Some exhaust manifolds have an adjustable plate to regulate the heat that reaches the bottom of the intake.

    As the British would say, it looks very tidy under the bonnet. Send your VIN off to the museum and they will send a folder back with information on your truck. The museum runs off donations so please make a donation for this service. It sometimes takes a little time to receive your packet because much of the staff is volunteer. I have always found it worth the wait. Here's the link to the museum. https://www.macktruckshistoricalmuseum.org/

    Red all over.

    This rig uses a variation of a gravity dump. Release the catch while loaded and slam on the brakes and the bed dumps the material. Go in reverse and hit the brakes and the bed will reset. A couple of videos. It is a single function vehicle so as hydraulics improved for the construction equipment industry, a multi-use wheeled loader would run circles around a Dumptor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siGtpP2biwg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnTjY6EDVHU
  21. j hancock
    OK. A Koehring Dumptor is the rig you are describing (I think). I will post in Tractors and Equipment.

    Don't forget their errand boy Comey.

    Thanks for posting but that is just sad looking. Were they using a loader to push it around? WTH!
