Think I'm gonna go ahead and plumb it with 1" sandblaster hose. That way not only will it shift in the blink of an eye, the hose will never wear out.
Rob
you might want to put a pressure regulator on it then or it might blow the sides of the transmission out.

That's right, I forgot about that! I got a new '85 cabover KW and that was the year they moved the shift lever up on the dog house. It worked by cables instead of
a shaft and thegearshift was real short and hard to shift. I had one of the old type range selector valves so I put a 4 or 6'' extension on the gear shift, old type
shift knob- one of those in the mixer now- attached the range selector valve with hose clamps, then found the air lines were bigger.
I ended up getting it to work but I don't remember what I did, knowing me it probably involved bubble gum, silicone, duct tape, paper clips,etc. -probably not the
way you'd want to go! Never had any problems with it though. This was a 9 speed, not a 13.
I do still have an old range selector or 2, but you'd need an old type 13 speed knob for the splitter.

It is the little square icon that looks like it has a tear in the middle...
Only on Internet Explorer! Firefox displays perfect!
Oh, I was looking on Firefox. Thanks Barry.

I'm still looking for that compatibility button...

We use Rotella at work ,change it at 20,000 miles.

A "klystron" is a very stable with a high gain power amplifyer used in the microwave regions of the RF spectrum. This is why they roast hot dogs so well and quick. They are also pretty good at illuminatiing targets at great range
"Cling ons" can be avoided by keeping your asshole hairs trimmed short.
Rob
oh...so those guys cooking hot dogs on fishing poles might be a little too close to that dish and end up cooking themselves.
-
You're thinking "Cling Ons" in your shoebox. Most think that hobby is gross and I can't understand why you would collect such a thing.
Rob
actually, I have no idea what klyston or cling ons are, but I do have a shoe box with old baseball cards from the '60's.
-
Amen brother. (Bulldogman)

Doubt there is a klystron left in the place. That is the most expensive part of the system. Lots of precious metal inside, hence the expense.
Rob
klystron? I got a shoe box full off that, can't give it away.

hmmmm...tough choice...I like the stainless version, but i'm staying with blue!
-
I have never been a default kind of guy, so the default blue skin had to go! I just got done building what you see now! It is called BMT Stainless and I hope you like it! It is a little easier on the eyes than the bright white and blue of the other skin.
Now I know some of you like the blue version so I kept it in the theme changer! Just go down to the bottom of this page and click "CHANG THEME" It is a the very bottom left corner of the page. Select BMT_Blue from the list and old blue will be back for you!
Great Barry, i'll check out this new stainless ,but I liked the old blue.

I think it is an early Fleetstar 2000 series.I believe it shared a cab with the Loadstar, but the Fleetstar was a diesel. If the picture was big enough you could see the Fleetstar in script and the 2000 also on the side of the hood. Go to utube and type in Fleetstar 2000d and enjoy!!!!!!!!!
Yep, this 1800 Loadstar cab looks identical, front end's different. You're right, this 2000D is it I believe. The Fleetstar picture at the top is a newer model I think.
-
Hmmmm....must be the new! I tried posting the picture myself and when I did all of Rowdy's original pictures came in- before it was just a blank box with a red X in it.
-
Wow, glad you weren't hurt any worse, but that was bad enough! Probably the worst place to be, just getting up. I can't- or won't, I should say- run double either. Otis and myself ran double to Homestead, Fl. a few years ago and I probably slept a couple hours during the whole trip. If I ever did doze off, the first time we hit a bump i'd be wide awake.
-
I'm gonna turn this picture over.
-
No, not EXPECTING trouble, but want to be ready if it shows up uninvited...I'll try posting the pic again, and will post the web address for it so if it don't show up you can clicky to see....

Oh, now I see the picture too.
OK, thanks Rowdy- still couldn't see the picture but the link worked fine. That's strange- when I reply, I see the picture, but can't see it in the original post.

Rob's been out standing in the radar field for years.

oh ok,well i guess thats what i was looking for,,was is it able,but you could probably do your own cement work with it.lol.thanks .sure not hard to look at,hows the interior?,and you still on vacation?bob
Yeah, i'm off this week, back at it Monday. I was ready to go back to work after a day, now the week's flying by!
Interior looks like this, got Mack floor mats with bulldogs on them.
-
Nice! I can't afford to shoot anymore so I just horde ammo! LOL
Not a bad idea- who knows when you won't be able to get it anymore.
-
I can't see the first picture. You're not expecting trouble are you? If you are i'll bring my 30-06, my 12 gauge, and my snubnose .38. I'll just leave the .22 rifle here. All the shells I buy for the 12 gauge is no. 4 buckshot, 3" magnums- it's a 36 in. barrell with full choke.
-
was wondering if you ever use it to deliver cement,,looks like its ready to work.bob
I don't, it's licensed and insured as an antique vehicle and can't be used as a working truck. When I bought it had been gone through and refurbished and was ready to be put back in service hauling concrete. Then the ready mix company was sold, and the new owners didn't want to run equipment that old so they sold all the B-models. I bought it from one of the former owners who had retired and kept this truck for himself.

Looks like you got the makin's of a moonshine still there.
it is, but don't tell anyone- it's disguised as a grill.

If one train left Philadelphia at 9:30 am headed west, and another train left Chicago at at 9:45 headed east, what time would they meet in Daingerfield if they were both running 50 mph?
