So whats the reason behind this style of collar ?? Paul

Good luck with it all and keep us posted Paul

See thats a lot different than Australia, I dont personally know of anyone that has tested positive to Covid in Australia I only know of one person th ast knows of one person that has tested positive in Australia I do know of people that have tested positive overseas in Europe and have passed away in Europe Paul

I know on the round hay baler last year I re raced the rollers and the new bearings turned up and the collar was almost egg shaped on the inside, the bearing had a similar egg shaped shoulder and depending which way the bearing was going to rotate I was meant to rotate the collar the opposite way and lock it to the shaft Well it all got to much for my brain so I just center punched the shaft and loctited them on there I'm not sure when bearing design changed from 2 grub screws to this collar business to hold the bearing in place but to my way of thinking it has made the show a lot more unreliable Great work on the truck How soon to the end of Brockway using their own cab was this truck, I know little about Brockways so have no idea of dates at all Paul

I had heard of such things even in this backwards joint on the other side of the world A study was done and a result was concluded that in the it was found that the CDC could have inflated the figures, anyway not really my problem Do you know of anyone that has contracted Covid 19 ?, not died or hospitalized or anything like that actually know of anyone that has had or presently still has Covid 19 ? Just curious as to what the man on streets actual experience is with Covid 19 in the states Paul

How does anyone know that figures are inflated ? I'm sure that the same argument could be used for WW1 and WW2 A large percentage of the population that died during WW1 would of died as a result of the Spanish flue that the US troops took around the world when they served overseas The same could be said no doubt for the troops during WW2 and no doubt other wars as well An Australian serving in Vietnam was more likely to die at home statistically than if they served in Vietnam, I doubt the U.S. was much different Using the arguments quoted above, "they were gunna die any way so dont count them" to me just doesn't cut it Dunno I guess if you have the information and choose to ignore it thats your choice Anyway good luck with it all, I thought that public in the U.S. must not of had the figures on this but it appears they do Paul

Was yacking to some one last night and were discussing the US and the Covid 19 and the fact a lotta people still don't take seriously over there or at least thats how it reads to me on this forum So after some Googling we found some quick answers Did you know that in WW1 the US lost 116,516 troops WW2 407,300 USA Covid 19 deaths to date 737,589 I as does everyone else I speak to in Australia can not fathom how people in the U.S. are still arguing about Covid 19 and face masks and vaccines and all the other things they seam to argue about makes no sense at all when you look at the cold hard facts Nearly 1 & 1/2 times the amount of people have died from Covid 19 as WW1 and WW2 combined Paul

Check the air pressure, if the regulator isnt working and the pressure is to high it will just keep popping O rings, should be around 60 - 65 psi Then move onto other problems Paul

Dunno, it's their truck they can do what they want I try and understand it from both sides Someone has finally got some coin together to by a project and for fill a dream Someone else is just happy to own it and do nothing with it We cant and shouldn't expect someone to sell something just because we want it and we are cashed up I reckon you gotta respect what people want to do even if we dont agree, it's theirs to do with what they want Paul

The seventh whats came about because of what ???? I'm completely lost here Paul

Thats a classy looking ride Paul

Sounds like you have a crook ground Paul

I would go along with the view on PAI parts, I have never had a bad experience with them yet Paul

You done well to share them here, all of interest to me That white stuff on the ground cant be snow ? Or could it, buggered if I know Paul

Oceanliner, airliner, jetliner, streamliner I guess the list goes on, it's a bit like the famous "blinking eye" court case in the US when Ford stole the intermittent wiper system that Robety Kearns invented Ford claimed he didn't own the invention of the components so it didn't belong to Kearns Kearns argued that they were correct but he owned the arrangement of the components that allowed the intermittent wiper system to operate Kearns won the case, mind you it cost him everything, money family house the lot, anyway I'm getting off topic here But using that thought process Freightliner doesn't own the letters but rather the arrangement as a whole and since Mack only used some of those letters Freightliner wouldn't have a case Paul

At 185 bucks it would be worth it even from out here with all the wheels I have Doubt it will ever happen, mind you if I keep a on social media buy swap and sell they do come up every now and then for a lot less Paul

Not many left in Australia now, looks to be in good order Paul

Sounds exhausting to me Paul

Looking fantastic, enjoying watching this build come together Paul

Winner winner chicken dinner, you've done well Thats a pretty high standard you set, should be proud of the results Thanks for sharing with us Paul

Not with pulling it apart sorry If someone has used silicone or silastic or that type of thing it can be squashed off on the inside and drops down and gets pumped thru the box or caught in the sliding dogs and makes it jump out of gear, run loud and wear out before its time If this is a remanufactured box with only 20,000 miles on it wouldn't it be covered under warranty ? Pretty sure Mack is 100,000 km in Australia on remanufactured stuff so that would be 60,000 miles If you tamper with it to much you might void your warranty if it still applies Maybe something to look into Paul

Crook bearing in the box or a oil gallery is blocked Paul

Been a while between drinks, looking forward to more updates Paul

Would you believe mrsmackpaul@gmail.com Something I wouldn't forget lol Paul
