Can't believe I forgot to mention the air dryer cartridge. I would also get a rebuild kit for the discharge valve while it is apart, and check the heater for the air dryer if equipt with such. Rob

Always trying to help a guy out ya know. Rob

No but I have the invoice at the shop. I'll look tomorrow morning. Rob

You probably have residual oil in the plumbing from the compressor passing oil. This will take a while to work out by itself. I like to take the compressor discharge line loose and every place else easy to get to and then using a compressed air engine washing gun with a suction hose in a pail of alcohol, blow the lines clean. When finished, allow the alcohol to dry for about an hour before reconnecting the fittings. The inject alcohol into the system when it is running to pass any effluent into the air tanks to drain out. It will take a while to get all the oil out depending on how much was there but it will eventually clean up. Rob

Being cognizant you are a busy man, I'm going the distance to lessen your load. Quite casual of me ehh? Rob

Soon as I get that sleeper bought, he won't have to be worried about it any longer. Rob

I just bought new Gabriel shocks from Fleetpride for about 68.00 each. Rob

I'd take you up on that. I could then drive my new truck, (formerly yours) home and wouldn't have a freight charge, AND you wouldn't need to worry bout no vibration any longer. That is of course if I can beat other dog there with the mixer. Sounds like a plan ehh?? Certainly appreciate the help loading at Lititz. Rob

Cleanliness. I can't stress that enough. Rob

When it breaks the frame rails just behind the cab, (about four inches) he will also think it's a toy. Fishplate it now before use. Rob

My deceased father in law worked for Sears for 30 years selling lawn and garden, and tools. He retired in 1986 after they kept fucking with his compensation because he made more than most district managers, but would not take one of those positions. Anyway, he used to bring home all their current catalogs that really weighted down a 3/4 ton Chevy truck almost to the wheel wells every year. We distributed these to "his" customer's homes free of charge, and he constantly had higher sales numbers than anybody in the store!! We did this for years! In those days you could "credit" your salesperson in the order and there were compensation bonuses paid to store sales personel. Man has Sears slipped. They are no more than a less than stellar retailer anymore. You used to walk in, a knowlegable salesperson helped you with a quality product. No more. We dumped our stock in the corporation before they nosedived as it was not difficult to see the future at that time. Rob

Uhhhh, I didn't think David was that kinda guy.........lol. Rob

Only when the priest asked why his wrist was in a cast during confession. Rob

To the end of the line with you buddy boy........ Rob

I've been wearing "Red Wings" over 30 years now. Wouldn't quite know what to do if they went under. Rob

Thank you. It was getting increasingly difficult to contain enthusiasm. If randyp don't return my gorilla soon, I don't know what we're gonna do. Rob

Happy birthday Grant!! Rob

I used to play on the roof of the Brown Shoe Company who manufactured those shoes!! Of course they are gone now too. Rob

That is the "high end" model. Mine is not. I'll grab a few shots tonight. Rob

Mine is brown and white with either a 3.0, or 3.5 horse Briggs & Stratton engine. I know it is from the late 1960's to early 1970's. Rob

Those "lugger" type trucks sure are handy. I'd like to have another but just no need. Be really heavy spec for any other use unless converted to a dump. Rob

Prolly be driving one of mine "east" for the upcomming shows later in the year. Rob

Keep me posted on this one. David set me up with a nice single exhaust recess small bunk but I'd also like to have a dual recess unit in the small size for another truck. Rob

May sound rediculous but after watching those videos last evening I actually got up from the computer and went out to the shop to start both V8 R700's "just to listen". "Momma" says I'm sick. Rob
