Popular Post sodly Posted July 9, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2016 Can anyone tell me about this truck? Seems like I read online somewhere about the owner finding it and being tempted to paint it.... but deciding not to. Does anyone recall such a thread somewhere? Thanks! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hurstscrambler Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 It looks great either way, nice truck. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodly Posted July 13, 2016 Author Share Posted July 13, 2016 Darn. Guess I'm in the minority that liked it better in the unusual root beer color. Still a good looking truck, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodly Posted July 13, 2016 Author Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) Speaking of this truck, I have a question about "heavy spec" or "heavy haul" Superliners. I read that this truck has a 20k lb front end and 58k rears. Is that why heavy haul trucks seem to sit a little higher then normal Superliners? Seems like there's more distance between the top of the front tires and the bottom of the front fenders. Do they run taller rubber, too? I really dig the tall look of Superliners like this one and Tackaberrys. And speaking of 58k rear ends, are the pointy hubs an indication of rear end capacity? I seem to only see the point ones on heavy speck trucks. Are the spoke wheels any different? They seem to be taller as well. Can anyone point out other differences between a standard Superliner and a heavy spec one that I might be missing? Could you get a 6 cylinder engine in a heavy haul spec? Or were they all pretty much V8s? Edited July 13, 2016 by sodly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superdog405 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Alot ran 12r rubber instead of standard 11r, and the pointy hubs are nose cone rears, came on 44s on up back in the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodly Posted July 15, 2016 Author Share Posted July 15, 2016 So just wider rubber... not taller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
