At least nowadays you can just use 2 feet I used to use Johnny bar or trolley valve now you don’t even have to you have enough feet to work both paddles…..
-
Yeah I know exactly what you’re talking about at least on our trucks it seems like it takes a couple seconds to release so you’re hitting the gas and it’s not doing anything but reving and burning the clutches I think haha
-
Yes I don’t blame you especially if you’re going to be traveling long distances and a lot of rural areas otherwise that thing is probably going to eat you alive wondering ha ha good luck.:… Bob
-
Well I would for sure feel more comfortable with a new axle especially if your going to load it heavy most of the time …. Bob

I had a Peterbilt a while back I think it was a 579 model I got knocked out of it by seniority that truck was a lot more comfortable and had a bigger engine somebody with strap knock me out of it I did like the Peterbilt a lot better.. Bob

Not sure if this will help you but Oakley tank lines completely rebuilt an F model cab and two and lots of photographs might give you some ideas go to antique and classic somewhere around page 87 started somewhere in 2014 good luck pretty detailed photos are used to drive a cruise liner when I was in my 20s it was also pretty hard to get in and out of I thought …. Bob -
But all in all like Joey says I did feel better with a stick with slippery weather…. Bob
-
Yes my Kenworth is the same way it seems to break faster with the automatic and a Jake brake works amazing this thing holds better than anything I’ve ever driven with two trailers three trailers it doesn’t really do a whole lot ha ha but I guess with 100,000 pounds you can’t expect miracles but yes I really like the automatic I didn’t think I was going to like them at all but they’re really handy especially in heavy stop and go traffic you can sit there and eat snacks and drink coffee and don’t have to keep screwing with the shifter bob
-
Wow very interesting article thanks for posting……. Bob
-
But I run days now on a wide open highway and you can see stuff coming up way before you get there anyway not much point shouting out a report anyway they will see it themselves… Bob
-
Man that video is horrible thanks for posting I never saw it and yes pretty good explanation of the automatic they don’t really help you a whole lot on icy roads but you can put it in direct manual mode whatever you want on some of them and yes . Stupidity kills a lot of people nowadays and hardly anybody runs a CB anymore I don’t even bother reporting shit these days most of the time nobody answers …. Bob
-
Anyone hear from that guy with the piston ring issues.. gas job?????
-
Wow I’m sure surprised that news hasn’t travelled out here that’s too bad I don’t like to hear that…. Bob
