Joey, you are very good at blowing smoke up one’s ass ha ha… Bob

It’s almost 100 here today…. Bring it.. barbecue in a little while

Well, from what you say, your area is not a whole lot different too many people with their noses up your ass and yes, I thought your winter was the same time is here. Bob

Funny, you mention motor oil because when I took the lid off the pump that’s what it look like was motor oil

Now at 67 most of my drive flew out the window lol speaking of roadway air starters, I almost bought a complete system out of one a buddy of mine had along with aB model he was selling … Bob

My biggest expense is going to be a steering and tires I’ve been collecting parts for years have all the hard to find stuff not sure if you’ve ever noticed passed post found a Rebuilt five and four quad box rebuilt for 350 bucks with the clutch bought 20 years ago the one in there is junk this thing is all ready to start working on any time.

Well, it isn’t that a bitch I just added to the reservoir and put power steering fluid in it but I guess it doesn’t matter at this point box and pump are both tired thanks for that

I’m very fortunate that most everything I need is small stuff snd still available

Thanks for all your input pump also howls when turning steering wheel and yes free play at pitman shaft as well as leaking oil

Yes, I went out there and started it couple of minutes ago. It’s got more like over a foot of FreePlay. Also, I have an Ingersoll rand bought it brand new Southern California and I have a sealco valve. I put it all in around 30 years ago still holds air forever. And yes, that’s what a Mac parts man told me years ago you’re supposed to hook up return line to don’t use it that much and it’s still not running on the road. I just pull out the main airline every once in a while and shoot transmission fluid. Into the starter and yes, as I mentioned in my steering radius is absolutely horrible. At another reason I was hoping to replace the box with something. Thanks for your input fellas. I’ll take a look at it in a little while and see if I can find any numbers…. Bob

All right man thanks for that I will go look at it a little later. I was hoping to replace the damn thing with a used box Mack, parts, are extinct around here, and years ago I ordered a used air starter from Arkansas and it got here and it was junk buddy of mine had one rebuilt 250 miles from here. They only charge them 300 bucks but it’s a Ford F 600 I might wind up contacting them just to see what they have to say. Oooooooooooo forgot to mention steering wheel play is around 7 inches running or not Bob

Oooooooooooo forget to mention after we put up with months of shit weather summer finally here now California’s fire season starts and fills the area with smoke for months that’s not all,,, best part alotta times our idiot officials have the audacity gaul to tell us no charcoal fires that’s not going to happen you could come and get me!!!!!!

It’s power steering, which is really surprising for a 1966 Roads trucks we never heard of it till around 1976

TJ that was a genius, but you just topped all of us … Bob

Man, I’m right there with you Bubba I hate it mainly it does us no favors at all in my racket long shifts and tire chains … Bob
