Was the velvet ride the one with a big block o' rubber that was the only thing between you and the highway?

I bought another B Mack

I hope that turbo elbow hasn't been open like that---you don't want any debris or water getting into the turbo. -
Cool! I like that straightedge that bolts down to the workbench--that looks handy.
-
10k is pretty high, but those L cab trucks are much in demand. If it doesn't have much rust, he may be able to get that for it.

Clint Eastwood movies wouldn't be the same without that great music.

That's quite a list of Macks!
-
That's a truck I would like to save. Somebody bring it east to Ohio and I'll take it.
-
That's a crazy looking rear mount on that 1693.

Something's wrong with your car...the needle went past the red line on the gauge.

Why do you say only under the hood?

I remember about 1974, a girl in my 5th grade class got a new Raleigh...it had a 5 speed with the shifter on the top tube, small front wheel, banana seat with sissy bar. All of us boys were jealous--that was the coolest bike we'd ever seen.

She's 50 years old? Holy smokes!!!

If I did that, I'd probably hit Ye Olde Body Shoppe with the bucket.

YOUR U-JOINT IS ALL CAPS? Sorry, just couldn't resist. Do the caps have 2 bolts in them? If so, pull the bolts out and try smacking on the yoke where it's welded to the driveshaft tube (be careful, don't hit any important parts). If it's stuck, you can either use a u-joint puller or beat it out with a sledge hammer. You have to be careful with a sledge that you don't dent the driveshaft or bend the yoke.

The guy who farms my property has a Quad Trac...it's an impressive machine.

Nice looking truck, but those tire pressure monitors look terrible.

Yeah, you have to know what you're doing with maxi-brakes....not worth a big hospital bill. -
I'll bet that was a beast with the 237 in it! What did it have originally?

Matt Pfahl's! Great article.

Generator to alternator
h67st replied to brickhouse15's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
Where does the left terminal wire connect to on your truck? -
I've seen Bs like that sell for $5,000 or less.
-
You know for sure that it sold for that? Ebay says it's no longer available, but doesn't say what it sold for (or even if it actually sold).
-
The frame rails are waiting while I'm stealing parts off of my donor trucks. Next I'll rebuild the differentials, get components cleaned and painted, reseal the engine, etc.

Generator to alternator
h67st replied to brickhouse15's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
An alternator is definitely more reliable; if you go to a one-wire unit like eddeere says, you can eliminate your voltage regulator...lots of people do that on older cars & trucks. Your lights work the same whether positive or negative; you don't have to change anything on those. If your truck has a series/parallel switch, I don't know what has to be done to change to negative ground. -
Slow and right is better than fast and sloppy!
