Load number two Sitting in a paddock waiting It really is 17 feet wide and at least 60 feet long It isn't as big or even close to as big as the trailer attached to the big Mack Two normal bogie axle assemblies underneath, side by side Farmer reckons he has a loader than might sort of lift one end The rest is blocks of wood and jacks and winching I'll be living the dream, I really will As a apprentice there was a sign in the work shop that read something like this "We the unwilling have been doing the unbelievable with so little for so long we now attempt to do the impossible with nothing Kinda how I do everything, get into it and have a crack, I can only make a mess or succeed Paul

I went out to warm the truck up (1979 DM685sx T/A Dump Truck) and noticed the tach and speedometer are not working...again. They started working for a few days and now they are not working again. No movement on either one. Suggestions on where to start my testing? I have two manuals but neither one covers gauges. If anyone can also point out where I could get a manual for the electronics end of it I would appreciate it. Thanks.

It took me a while but I got the new clutch in. I put in the Eaton 9 spring ''Easy Pedal'' clutch. Yes, I went ahead and paid a local guy to put it in. He was backed up so it took a while but I now have a new clutch. Thanks for all the suggestions. Now I need to get some other things working. It is fully usable at this point but there a lot of little things that need attention. I will make new posts for those questions. Again, thanks everyone.

Ive recently acquired a 1959 B Fire truck. Looking to do a service on the engine but I'm having a hard time finding part numbers for filters, oil specs and capacities. Engine is an ENF464B. Any help be it part #'s or links would be greatly appreciated. FYI, Ive already reached out to Watts and they had no luck.

It came in a annual subscription for the "Weekly Times" which is farmers weekly news paper in Victoria and the lower half of New South Wales I'll ask Mum the name of the book, it's all about dog stories Mum replied Joey I had to Google a what a Australian Shepherd is, they are a American dog from California ?? A funny old world https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Shepherd Kelpie are probably the most widely used sheep dog in Australia,they can scale vertical walls 15 feet high, I think record is nearer 17 feet They are long and lanky and tough, really tough like a blue cattle dog so are well suited to the Australian farm life Kelpies are on the cover of the book, Mum has a very old ex farm Kelpie that has fully retired inside Paul - Yesterday

Is that the new hood ornament they'll be using on the macks made in Mexico ? Or will they be modeled after a chihuahua ?
