james j neiweem Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 That Sessa DM can really rap with the maxidyne. Great tunes. Also Blue Slope Farms trucking which usually has Blue Macks apparantly has a new T800 KW red in color. Saw it twice on Rt 16. Hope it is just a temporary abberation. If you go on their websitethey show a blue Mack Junior pick up. I think they may have some binders also.

Also looking for an original green steering wheel and front fenders for a 1966 Dm800. Do they have 1100x24" tires up that way in Conn.

Mack58B42 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I live a couple miles away from the old Copar pit they were using in Bradford, RI, and for a while, I got to see the Granites hauling in and out of there almost daily.Made me want to quit my job and see if I could get a gig driving one. They are/were very nice looking rigs......

Mack58B42 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Saw one up close and personal a couple of years ago. Didn't have camelbacksDoes the camelback make a big difference?I do recall that when one of those trucks, carrying a full load of crushed stone, would go around a corner (90 deg), they DID seem to lean a bit more that I think I might have been comfortable with if I was driving it....I've heard the term before and have a vague idea of it, but how, exactly does the camelback differ from the normal suspension, which I assume is a combo of springs/air?

blackdog2 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Camel backs spreads when leaning in a turn and it stays there air ride it changes and it squirrely & flimsily !!! if they knew how to build roads you can keep it in one lane.
