There was a good bit of movement..

Terry check out the video highly doubt salvage! 30 thou min turn! My opinion!

Judging by the slop in the pictures it is beyond just grinding. it would need to be built back up and re ground, Can be done, question is: is it economical to do so? Most cases a used crank is cheaper.

Thank you Gentlemen

Would the crank be turnable there? would be alot cheaper to have bearings and maybe a rod shipped than a whole crankshaft. terry

Hi all,we are trying to identify our front axle.We dont know what weight its rated for or what toqure the wheel bearing nut are.any help would be great.The pics show the only numbers we can find on the axle.Thanks for reading.. Paul

In reality, that is just an adjustable "pin" that when the main gear nears the end of travel, it pushes on a ball-check valve and dumps pressure before the gear dead-heads. It doesn't hold the the head from coming off. I never touched it when doing mine, 'cause I didn't want to have to adjust it after repairs, just left it as is.

it should be a 5/16th hex head set screw having a 1/2 in six point nut for lock.

That’s factory what you have I would try to find something to work with it, not sure but I think the screen is the filter , the two parts on build sheet might be the filter can and the bracket that mounts it. Fabricating a screen to hold a filter material inside what you have should be the easiest solution. My brother Tom spent a lot of time getting the Edelbrock filter on which looks cool but a purist would frown on it , we are not purists!…..Jack

You could be right about the engine being doctored up Mark.I feel bad for Nathen after all the work he put into it.Yes Macks are very very uncommon over here.Nathen's is the last Cruiseliner in the UK and ours is the only Cruiseliner to have ever been regestered in Ireland...I only know of 5 other Macks in Ireland...3 F models,1 R model and a gas powered 50s stake truck not sure of the model as Iv never seen it.Theres rumour of an MH lurking around the country but its unconfirmed as of now....I hope Nathen gets sorted soon......

Someone marked the throw for some reason. That may have been "doctored up" already. Like cleaned up with emery cloth and a new bearing from a previous failure ? You guys claim they're not common there, who knows what someone tried on it. No simple way out now 😕 😏 unless you have lots of patience and a micrometer, start polishing and get a undersized bearing. Compared to your other options, you don't have much to lose in this situation. Although it looks like it might be already too late for attempting that too. Just a thought....and not a good one, but

i dumped aohell around 15 years ago after they logged me out, and would not let me log back on without email verification........to an aohell email account i could not log on to without email verification that i was who i claimed to be.

Yes. That is true.. im dealing with one of my own. A small truck as it is, but each time i do something good for it. Something else pops up. So i have to collect myself, and start again. I wish him to have the patience and fortitude to keep up his good work.. 🍻

Nathan has had really bad luck with his Cruiseliner.I was talking to him during the week.He worked so hard to bring his truck back to life.Sometimes old iron can bite you hard.Clearly she suffered a loss of oil pressure but why?.... Paul

Go have some fun bob....hope you all enjoy the 4th.America day!!!. Then get busy with the DM....Im up to my neck in our Cruisliner... Paul

Check out the posted video bro!

Yeah, he said he’s gonna talk to Barry soon. He keeps putting it off.

Have fun, as if you have to be told to have fun Don't forget to grab some Berocca's for the morning after Paul

To be clear I have not heard and specific rumors the 650 and 750 are to be dropped, but sales of these trucks have been falling.

Sucks

Seems once he got done with those transmission he disappeared. I thought it was just me, but he said no he cannot get on an AOL shut him out.

Yes, that’s it. I don’t know where he got those screwy stick figures they are very interesting though.

he was here at the end of May. 28th. I think Yeah not smiley face. but stick people.. anyway... here he is.

are you asking about a guy named larry? if so, I swear he posted recently. isnt his icon a white paper bag with a face written on it? or am I out lunch? Stick People, not a face..
