Didn't find anything on a search. I have a 1989 R688ST with a FAW5371 12k steer axle. I need to redo the wheel ends. I know the outer bearing is a 45280. Does anyone have the inner and outer bearing and race numbers handy? Also interested in a wheel seal number and a spindle nut number. Some jackwagon used a chisel before.

Well done, loosing weight is a challenge and as I get older the challenge is even harder I have no good answers here Was running between 8 and 10 mile each morning for nearly 15 years after I had a accident and busted my back in a couple of spots Dunno if I lost weight or not but sure as I never weigh myself, but I felt better and still take zero medication Developed a heel spur type of deal a few months ago, so did something really unusual, got some new tyres and tubes for a push bike someone gave my years ago Stuff me that took a while to get used to but I am 12 - 13 mile each morning Almost always up at 3.00 am and go straight out to it Well done on the weight loss, I dunno if I could give up Bourbon, the longer I'm married the better it tastes ha ha ha Paul

You know I trained on one just like that way back in 1976 and I find it very very hard to tell people. It’s an antique back in those days those things with the king of the highway in the north east.

Back in 1978 I owned one Ford, a 1967 Fairlane (390 CID, 2-speed auto, first and third.....) for about three weeks. Paid $75 for it, sold it back to the same guy for the same $75. I've always been a MOPAR guy, with a few GM's in between. Currently there are two Dodges sitting in my driveway with no plans to replace either one.

60 years strong! This week’s Mack Facts celebrate the R Series, the model that shaped Mack’s history in Australia. 1. The most popular Mack series ever built, the legendary R Series truly put Mack on the map, or more accurately, on roads all around the world! While this summary from Mack Inc. captures the global story well, it doesn’t quite reflect the unique Australian history. The last locally built R variant was the Australian-designed Metro-Liner, which rolled off the Richlands production line in December 1996, just over 31 years after the first R Series left the Rocklea facility in October 1965. 2. In Australia, Mack Trucks Inc. began local manufacturing in early 1963, producing the legendary B Models at the fledgling Rocklea, QLD operation as fast as demand could be met. But operators were soon calling for more performance, greater driver comfort, and increased hauling capacity, paving the way for the R Model, the perfect evolution and worthy successor to the B Model. The first two trucks were imported in mid-1965, an R403 and a more powerful R609. The photo shows the first R609 in Allentown in 1965, ready for shipment to Australia. 3. Almost 9,000 R Series trucks were built in Australia in an incredible range of configurations. Starting with the ever-popular R609, powered by the tough END711 engine, through to the heavy-duty R800 off-road model, the R Series proved it could handle virtually any hauling task in the harshest conditions. It’s only fitting that such an achievement is celebrated, marking 60 years of the R Series in Australia! The hero photo features the very first V8 R Series delivered locally, owned by Smiler Nilon.

Kickin' my load off!!

That’s great! I love those old black and white pictures! I’m sure there were some taken on this truck back in the day, maybe some will turn up but if they don’t I feel fortunate to have the timeline pretty much intact from 1955 to 2025 , there are some unanswered questions,, but still loads of interesting history! She’s had an Adventurous Life for Sure! 2 pictures I always wonder about, when she was about 10 years old hauling equipment in Alaska,, And a picture of her when she turned 18 , when she was all dressed up ! A knock out for sure!

Fully blinged, looks like Mr T has been tyre fitting ha ha ha Good job Bob Paul

Here is the lady on her Tennessee walking horse And GMC truck Paul

Excellent thanks for that. Well, you might be doing pretty good there. I used to do 120,000 a year with Fedex that was at $.83 a mile and 33 bucks an hour when I was working best of luck, bud but next time you do a video, I wanna hear the cows you hear me Let’s get her done

As the guy from Dr.Hook said "Awww Beautiful!!!"

Jon, The rule of thumb is to start asking high!! Then you can bargain down and the buyer thinks he is getting a good deal!!!

lol ive had many cars and trucks through the years many chevrolets pontiac olds Cadillacs dodge plymouth chrysler,,,,,you name it ive owned it;...i lost count at 40,,,and that was 40 years ago lol.bob

nice going bud,,,,giving up anything sucks,,,lol.bob

it all started christmas 2023 when i bit into a martins potato roll and broke another upper tooth. as most of my uppers were bad or missing, i went to a dentist highly recommended by three people i know and said rip them all out and put in implants. in the process of taking out what was left, he found a bunch of problems, including infections, and a passage between the mouth and sinus that took 4 months to heal. over that 4 months i was on a no chew diet.......otherwise knows as baby food. well i lost a little over 40 pounds, and decided i was going all in. cut out sugars, sodas, carbonated beverages, and all starches. and stuck with it.

Nice going chubby you both look terrific

Man, that was a long SOB but very interesting. Thanks for that self driving cars? I’m not excited. I think that’s opening up a big can of worms.

I'm happy for you. When I retired 12 years ago, I was 265 pounds. Today, I'm at 230 and still losing. I don't rush things, don't go to a gym, don't starve myself, but have cut back on portions and snacking. I also don't stress about it. Don't know how long I have left, so there is no point in stressing over my weight. At this rate, I should hit 200 in around 10 or 11 more years, IF I'm still here!

Very interesting thanks for that… with all this bellyaching over tariffs I’m surprised we’re not seeing tons of assembly plants being built here… so far unless I missed something GE is the only company bringing any thing back here … bob

I just saw this, my cousin was a Big Detroit guy,, he bought a 3 cylinder, aluminum engine from one of those, he put it in a C30 Chevy truck, he took it out and I bought it from him, hopefully one day I can install it in something else.

Simple answer. He should have never been allowed to have a CDL. Period.
