RFCDrum Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 You're gonna make me crawl under this truck. I trust your judgement and have to clarify for them as everybody thought it was a Spicer. Still a wonky shifting truck and gets stuck in no mans land sometimes and you have to pull over and bang it out of gear. I'm still dying to drive it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ditchkus Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 RFCDRUM once you get used to shifting from first to low in the different shift pattern you will like it. Just remember you have to stop completely before shifting in or out of deep reduction. It makes funny noises if you do not. It is like driving a compound Mack Trans or 5x4 or 5x3 once you are used to it you will wonder what the problem was. Joe d. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superdog Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 That is a nice Donald Duck!It was a local grain truck as far back as I can remember. Another farmer bought it 2 or 3 years ago,and didn't like driving it,no P/S and he couldn't shift it,so he took the box off and put on a R model.

GreenGiant2 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Was up in Mass today and saw this cracker box.IMG_2535.JPGThen was going down a street and saw these two. I hear the guy bought them new and NEVER used them. I'd love to get both to put behind our tractors. Throw Richards canvas's on them and they'd be awesome.IMG_2536.JPGwould love to have a new trailer like that.

james j neiweem Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I remember Balf trucking out of CT had a bunch of those for a while before they went KW. Tilcon bought them out. That may have been what gave tilcon the KW bug.I think there still might be one of those balf ducks kickin around wiht a road lane change sign on the back. Saw a Tilcon CH today with a low boy on RT 2 Ct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
