    My Dutch trucker buddy says the 730 is rubbish.. transmission hunts constantly, never allows full power.

    Can you send a photo of your work? Is that rope easy to work with?

    I believe he's talking about 9 foot spreads on a three axle trailer. Allowed him to scale the weight with a single axle tractor.

    I was thinking that the problems with the VA were isolated to some depressed areas with high numbers of older vets, but I was surprised to find out from a chance meeting with a 45 y/o vet here in Pittsburgh that the VA is mostly a joke. G.P.'s revolve through that place monthly, tests get ordered that the VA can't provide, and going to a hospital that does have the capability usually means they aren't covered under VA insurance... I had no idea. Really a shame.

    I have a suggestion... try ramming some aluminum wire into the groove, tapping it in and around using a flat head screw driver. Could use copper too, but I think aluminum expands more than copper. Worth trying. In my experience, putty probably won't work.

    Is that a 2 valve engine?

    Looks like a sweet rig.. some new shoes and go to work... It'd new some valves/airlines to pull a trailer though, right? Is that lever on the floor a driveshaft brake?

    Ever since DPF became standard issue on new engines, I've heard nothing good about fuel economy, although I must admit, I meet relatively few new truck owners ... what are new New NEW trucks getting for fuel economy?

    EPIC soundtrack America was something then Now they'd chopper everything in...? Imagine running dozer in that weather without a cab!!!!

    I google mapped the location... it'd be a costly adventure to get that truck home... apparently the market for E9's, even those in Superliner 1's, is remaining hard.

    Great point!

    What would a dual cut-out flat top crawl through Able body bunk be worth? It has complete interior and no real structural problems....

    Friends down there tell me they are allowing livestock to die on the trailers.... reprehensible ... https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/the_americas/in-brazil-a-truckers-strike-brings-latin-americas-largest-economy-to-a-halt/2018/05/25/fe3f06e6-6026-11e8-b656-236c6214ef01_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.6e6d93ba13dd
