Maddog13407 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 nice retrofit as i dont think they ever made a B615 emblem. id like to make a B 613 emblem for mine, but a B75 and B61 emblem are easier to find than a B63 or B73 to chop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Thank you, that's some great looking trucks there, I like the red and black F-model and that black and blue MH. As randyp might say "that's some excellent kodiakotronomy right there!" 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Dash Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Great pics. Did you notice what tranny was in the U-615? I've only seen the deep reduction lever with the Fuller 15 speeds. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 45LMSWM Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 whats the deal on the second to last pic? looks like an Lj with homebuilt fenders and a B75 radiator.Its an LJSW formerly owned by Keen Transport of Carlisle, PA. S/N LJ2D 4732D. Not sure what is under the hood now. Truck was for sale in Wheels of Time almost 20 years ago and has been in Lititz ever since.-John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveigou Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 The Keen LJ is an NH220 under the hood, it runs good & sounds good. It is some version of a 9 or a 10 speed duplex trans, and 44,000# rears, (I don't remember what model #). It has after maket hydraulic power steering, with a belt driven pump and the slave cylinder is on the tierod. I don't know how it feels on the road, but in the yard you can steer with one finger.

Green Dash Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Here you go...Thanks. I would think that in itself would make it more of a rarity. I'd imagine most of these came with 2 sticks. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
