If you end up having two, keep me in mind also Rob.

Glenn, I was thinking that if I would do it, I would add an extra air tank with a one way valve to it.
-
Hmmm, got me thinking.................
-
I've heard the horror stories of air steering, but sometimes think I'd like to have some assistance on mine.

I always drool at projects like that. Just done to a "T" and perfect. Wish I owned something like that, but I use my stuff too much and would never stay that nice. -
The BBC version is awesome. Love the "hill start" when the put Jeremys drums behind his truck and he crushes them. Then the do the same with a Piano! Then the burning inferno as they race around road course!! Great stuff. Ya, the American version just doesn't have the knack of the british blokes.
-
Very cool picture. Glad you can spend "together" time with them. I can remember my first ride in a "big truck": I was 10 yrs old and I've been a junkie ever since. I remember those twin white pearl shift handles and the wig wag!
-
Not an expert, but I would suppose it all depends on the leveling valve settings. Either have to measure and make sure they are equal or put air gauge on them and see if both axles read the same.

That style machine always scared me. Stick your arm out and get it clipped off by the loader arm!!!! Especially the smaller versions with open cab. Wondered what OSHA would think of something like that today? It would have to have a cage or laser screen to shut machine off if you stuck your arm out. That seat picture just goes to show..............a cat and dog CAN sleep together LOL!! Here ya go Sam.......I got it posted here for you

"Excuse me while I whip this out".................. "Man, I heard you was hung". "And they was right".

Pics!!! we want pics!

Ah so...............KInda wondered about that when I saw it. Wasn't thinking about a tilting cab. Also looks like a real bieotch to climb over getting in/out of the bunk! What I don't see is the TPV or the parking brakes.
-
Wow....that's one clean F model! Surely make someone a very nice truck. I see it still only has a hand brake in it. Wonder what the reserve is?

Freightrain replied to Olivetroad's topic in Odds and Ends
Well, you hit the muther load there. I've been in the screw/barrel repair business for 25 yrs(same place). I'm very familiar with most of that equipment in some way or other. -
Ohhhhh, had another chance to go cruise today. Just over 40, no wind..................so I hopped on and put 10 miles on it after work. I pulled the muffler inserts out to see how loud it got. Not bad at all, nice deep rumble with those stock muffler casings. Likely leave it this way now?
-
Naw, not me. This one is still pretty stock, modified stock pipes just give it a nice rumble. Over time Ill likely tinker with it. 96 inch/6 spd. It is driving me nuts just looking at in the garage. Weather is very mild and if it stays dry and over 40 Ill get it out again
-
I'm just guessing, but since it's a California transfer, I'm guessing it doesn't see the "off road" that a typical East coast dump sees. Maybe not? Just thinking out loud.
-
I FINALLY got to take my new toy for a spin today. Got dark too quick to take a nice picture with it outside.
-
Hot Damn I thought that parking lot looked awfully familiar LOL! I stop for fuel there when I go that way. That black/red Freightliner? Or whatever it is sits there all the time and was my clue that is where you were sitting. I'll send ya my number so if you run into trouble give a jingle.
-
Long live the WIG WAG!!!! LOL!! No annoying buzzing required!
-
Geez, there ya are stuck in Canton...............and did ya call ol 'train?? Nope, nadda............. I'm ashamed....................LOL!! Only time I was at KW of Canton was for a truck show a few years back. I see Reed's brought their big boy to haul you away. Trying to fig'r where you were stuck, but not looking familar. Almost looks like the Duke down at rt 36 and 77?
-
Wow...that really suxs. Sorry to hear about it. My gut hurts thinking about something like this happening to anything I own.
-
Oh, I see. There's a bounty on my aquired possesions............................."me", not so much. Didn't see that coming..................LMAO!!!
-
Thanks guys. Time will tell. I'll take the cake anyway.
-
Come on guys. Time to belly up and do a good deed for the day. I have to work on collecting my "bail"........................... http://www2.mda.org/...031&pg=personal Even a dollar makes a difference. Thanks
