Superdog Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Going back to work tomorrow to see how I get along.Got the old name off the doors of the "new" truck and the new plates on,ready to give it a shakedown.Too cold to re-letter it so I'm going to play farmer.Just hope the shoulder holds up rolling the tarp.Not near as many guages as "Super Mutt"It does have this nice little storage box with cup holders.though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsb502 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 So how many superliners does that make in your fleet?

Green Dash Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Good Luck today and be careful. One wrong move and you're back to square one.The Superliner looks great inside and out. I made a 2 compartment storage bin for the R models I used to drive. It didn't have the fancy-schmancy integral cupholders, I mounted mine on the front. It did have the dee-luxe carpeted exterior however. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umodelnut Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Interior looks nice, along with the rest of the truck Mike!!!! Good luck, If ya want, I'll come down there and drive for ya. Might take me a little getting used too, or ending up having that transmission on the ground. Ah, I dont think that would happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superdog Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 Thanks everybody,everything went pretty good.Blew an air bag first load,got an "I told you so" from my son(one of the air bags looked a little old,I said it would be ok for a few short trips,kid said I should change it first).I was able to limp in,get unloaded and limp back without too much trouble.Last trip of the day the braided line from the water pump to the air compressor started leaking where it had rubbed on the AC compressor bracket,got that fixed so all is well.I expected a few issues,as with any old truck with low,low miles,rubber items such as ,tires,hoses and airbags are going to have issues.Probably should change out a couple tires too. Truck drove and ran sweet,I was real happy.Pulls real good. Alot lighter truck than I'm used to,25,000 EW with my Timpte hopper.Shoulder held up OK too,but it let me know it was there on several occasions,be interesting to see how it feels when I wake up.

rsb502 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 25,000, hell my 84 Superliner daycab weighed 19000 by itself I think it was 29,200 with a 26' rogers aluminum dump trailer.
