excess play in steering wheel
Hobert62 replied to 609albert's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
If you grab the drag link you should be able to feel if there is excess play in the ends. It will rotate but shouldn’t have slop in it. -
What year was my B61 made?
Hobert62 replied to joep's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I hauled mine about 50 miles of 2 lane with my 8.1 gas job. Yours is probably about a 2000 pounds heavier with the wrecker stuff, and my trailer has dual wheel. -

Scientists have proved that mice and rats raised in the laboratory have smaller brains and smaller adrenal glands than their counterparts in the wild. The scientists have concluded it is because they are given food and water rather than have to figure out how to get it on their own. This is a perfect example of how the welfare system is a failure and there are many other examples of how the welfare system is a failure. Welfare is a Democrat program and if it wasn't intended to destroy and control blacks I will be shocked because that is what seems to be it's main outcome.

Interesting article. I always cringe when i hear about gun control because everyone knows it does not work only law abiding citizens obey the law. In Chicago there is a new State attorney (district attorney in other states) Democrat, black female received campaign money from George Soros she refuses to prosecute property crimes valued at less than $250.00 doesn't ask for bail or only a low bail for people picked up on gun charges that have already been convicted of felonies. This is why there is always more than 2 dozen shootings in Chicago every weekend . The Mayor of Chicago a black female lesbian helped create a state law requiring schools to teach LGBTQ history she claims all of the gun violence is due to young men not knowing how to settle disputes. If she believes that then instead of LGBTQ history why don't she create a law to teach conflict resolution? But what place do I have stating any of that being that I'm a middle age middle class white christian conservative heterosexual male AKA the problem.

Look at the box there should be a lash adjustment on it. Generally a jamb nut and a slotted machine thread screw to adjust the sector shaft play. If it is there you need to get the specs on end play. May be a Sheppard box in it but not 100% sure. -
well just so everyone understands I lean very far to the right and I agree with the comments made here especially the one stating it's not about democrat or republican rather about right and wrong. how do we know the left is wrong? well for more than 50 years their programs have failed miserably. because only common sense would dictate that mutilating ones body (transgender, transsexual) come from mental illness being gay or lesbian or bisexual should be a persons private business and not taught in schools HELL schools shouldn't teach any sexuality that's the responsibility of parents. we also know that the left is wrong because they are hypocrites,liars, and don't apply logic, common sense, or science to their views and when confronted with logic ,common sense and science they resort to personal attacks. One of the biggest problems we face is that the left infiltrated the school system and many people never learned how to think for themselves which is why they follow the media that doesn't report facts but distorts and omits them and interjects opinion as if that was news and facts. We must all take an active part in the education of our kids and grand kids teach them what every dictator has done on their rise to power and the kids will see that the media has become the propaganda arm of the left and gun control is not for safety but when the politicians seize our guns they will next kick in our doors and seize our real property as easily as they now do with our paychecks. college students don't know how our government works and even less about history and that is how the left is gaining control PLEASE teach your kids and grand kids not only what Hitler did in the death camps but all of the policies of the Nazi party and what other dictators have done in the name of safety and security which ultimately and intentionally had the opposite effect

Some we had were pre M16A1 versions which had ejection issues and severe barrel wear with the stocks made by Mattel, real confidence builder. Finally bartered for an M14

there should be a gap between upper coupler(trailer) and fifth wheel. adjusting the jaws will take up forward and backward slack. it would be wise to inspect king pin and upper coupler for wear and damage along with the fifth wheel and after 12 years it would be wise to remove the fifth wheel flip it over and inspect for wear on the underside also

Hi All, I have a 1949 EE Mack with the flathead gasoline engine. Even though it runs, I'd like to rebuild the engine, but before pulling it down, I want to see what new (NOS) parts I can find. Any and all leads will be appreciated. Thanks Greg -
There's not really a category for fifth wheel questions so I picked suspension. Anyway I have a Holland FW35. It's about 12 years old. I run local semi-dump around Chicago with a quarter frame trailer. The problem im having all of a sudden is after i dump, there is a gap between the fifth wheel plate and the trailer. So I'll pull the locking bar and slide the trailer back and get it to sit flat. I don't have this problem loaded as I think the weight keeps it set. I haven't tried adjusting the jaws yet but when hooked up there's about 1/4 inch gap between the bushing on the adjusting rod and the plate. My holland manual says tighten counter clockwise until the bushing can rotate. But my bushing rotates already. Also, the jaws have been adjusted maybe once in 12 years but I never had the trailer not sit flat on the plate. So my questions are these 1) is adjusting the jaws the answer? I't doesnt seem like it to me but if it is do I adjust with the jaws locked or unlocked. Thanks.

It speaks volumes that the FBI still keeps Thompsons in their arsenal, a weapon invented in 1918.

Some things just naturally go together -- like Autocar Trucks and Cummins Inc Diesel engines. This brochure dates to the late 1940s, but the first Cummins-powered Autocar was built in the mid-1930s, even before the #AutocarDC. Yo, that's 80+ years ago. #ThrowbackThursday #TBT Always Up - Autocar Trucks .

Quite popular in the 70 and 80s, Ritchie never new how much dope went through the auctions.

Now we are all bad, saying the AKs better than our finicky overpriced home grown assault weapon, bring back the Thompson, that was a real gun.

I will check it out ,seems like no easy fix -
I checked into it. They could slap federal charges on you for putting a shotgun shell in it. The loop hole is the rifled barrel makes it a single projectile firearm. So now I need one and if the perp who’s breaking in gets BB pelted I hand the boys their red riders. Buckshot = HPslingshots

The guys up at PotlatchDeltic told me a story about the Liehberr LH50 they bought a year back. When they inspected the stick boom early on they noticed cracks. To make sure it wasn’t just paint they scrapped it down to metal. They cleaned the paint off and found bondo. They cleaned the paint and bondo both off to find a smugglers hatch cut in a square window. The mechanic said they popped the very poorly speckled-spotted-wire-quilled-up welded hatch off and boom was emptied. Whatever someone sent over was gone. Liehberr has to give them a whole new stick. No one found out what was in it, no word spoke about it. That hollow boom is a big cavity to fill!

technicality. it is a pistol, that just happens to be able to accept a 410 shotgun cartridge.
