After all the welding and sandingand polishing, I thought it looked okay My mate Mal and my boy quickly pointed out how crap a job it actually was Apparently even finer paper was needed I spent days just welding up all the holes were people had screwed, riveted crap to it It went on for ever the welding and the like Anyway the Mack muster 2026 is coming up so I best get busy tidying things up again Apparently they are featuring the R model Paul

They choose to Did you know Off to a wedding next week, another man I failed to save ha ha ha Will done my usual wedding attire and frock up for the event Yes a summer kilt and my town hat and a tie, dunno if you blokes would get the tie, it's covered in semen, given to me by a herd improvement company one year when AI "joining season" was underway on the farm Always gets a laugh Paul
  16. Technology can drive me bananas at times, but there would be no forum without it Looking much cleaner now Paul
  17. So these axles have top mounted centers ? Or is this the Volvo equivalent ? Certainly wont find many people that have anything bad to say about a Mack rear end Camel back springs are rough and tough but I'm pretty sure Mack stopped these a few years ago A photo of the axles may help get some better answers, I have never heard of a 46,000 lb Mack backend Paul
  18. Well done Joey, you know what they say "happy wife hap.........." Oh never mind, there is no such thing as a happy wife, just periods of where "status quo" is less turbulent ha ha ha Looking good Joey Well had my mate Mal and his cook "the diff" around for BBQ Mal inforns me I'm baling hay for him Tuesday night, that's getting ambitious so I best do a pre start, checked the oil and water in the old Inter, some jumper leads and first piston to the top "brrrrrm, burble burble burble" purrs like a kitten, the Nuess motors are one of the best motors ever made, made in Germany in a town called Nuess Open the baler door, close the door, start the PTO, baler runs, some air in the tyres and I announce, "pre season inspection done" Apart from a clean and a good grease I think it's good to go No bad for a 40 year old tractor Hay fever is going great guns this year, sheep are lambing, we have it all going on at the moment And then the house renovations can't be stopped as the kitchen/dinning room has to be done for Christmas and and and, I'm getting exhausted just typing this out, phew Paul
  19. It is not uncommon for electrical stuff to start to work with just a little bit of use So the French Mack electrical issues are pretty normal with any vehicle sitting for long periods Just using things a little bit solves most problems from ever happening Paul
  20. If your chasing a Mack V8 your probably in for a challenge as they weren't much good Most were changed out early in their life for something more reliable Paul
