Or just forget all the fancy stuff and go back to plan "A" Once the cranks out, just use the welder and shrink the liners and push them out easily This has been done by hundreds of thousands if not millions of farmers across the world and works just fine If it's a in frame rebuild, some thin tin wrapped around the crank journal and secured with a hose clamp to stop and weld spatter damaging the crank also works Chuck the new liners in the freezer for a few days and sit the block out in the sun on a hot day and a block of wood and just tap them back in Anyway you blokes are all over this Paul

No heat problems here, cold and blowy and pretty miserable 100 is getting pretty miserable to work in Joey can blow some sweat around with his big new fan, should help to keep things drier Paul

Plenty of summer left to fix the bonnet/hood and the steering box You'll be all over this Bob, like a fat kid on a lollipop Paul

Correct, Winfield blue were the smoke of choice for me as a young lad Crocodile Dundee, long before he was Crocodile Dundee used to advertise them Paul

I remember getting pushed down the Mingela to Townsville with nearly a 100 ton pushing me along Tacho needle past any numbers on the tacho, ass fairly sucked down tight on the drivers seat She was a ass puckering experience, fingers nearly snapping the steering wheel, I was hanging on so tight I'm guessing 2600 rpm, valves didn't have to bounce and I was to shit scared to notice ha ha ha Sucking away on a Winni blue cigarette trying to hold it all together Paul

Well she's in bits now, Thats the hard part done, piece of piss now Paul

I leave the air flowing into the tank why I weld the holes Never had a issue, diesel is more dangerous than petrol as the metal absorbs the diesel and it sort of evaporates off as it is welded, can be seen while welding quite easily Once petrol is evaporated it is gone, just something to remember when welding diesel tanks Paul

I have never seen a tang drive, only a dowl pin Paul

No it won't keep it in time properly The pump can move the bolt hole section and I guess other things can move At least this what people that specialize in injector pumps have told me Every time the injector pump is removed the timing must be reset I know your gunna go, that makes sense at all you dumb ass I think the same answer as you and asked a different injector pump place and got the same answer, even asked the pump department at Mack and their specialist man said the same thing My thoughts would be, it can't effect it to much but it must have some effect What ever effect it has will be doubled as the injector pump will spin at half t he speed as the crank ? I wouldn't worry as I would spill time it once the motor is rebuilt anyway As this motor is new to you, you have no idea if it is timed correctly anyway so it can only be a bonus to check it is correct Paul

Helmets are certainly the icing on the cake for coolness Love it, great stuff Paul

Ha ha yep, yet she loved riding in the back, she was far to pongy to ride shot gun Good job on get the tyre off Heat only really bothers me if I'm doing nothing in it, just sitting there going, bugger me its hot I put my shirt in a bucket of water and it keeps me cooler Good job though, some really tough beads a fire is the only way Paul

Friends put a doggy door in, they put a slide thing in the door to stop dogs getting in Miss Molly the border collie decided that those rules dont apply to her and promptly decided to eat her way in The door got repaired and a sheet of tin put across the bottom Miss Molly giving a wabbit mouth to mouth after it fainted And Miss Molly driving a forklift Poor Miss Molly the border collie is getting fairly slow these days and confined as she done a hamstring injury Paul

Good work, wouldn't of thought a heater would be of much use in a truck without a roof But the heater looks the part Great work Paul

I would think the main difference is the injector pump settings The chassid mounted cooler types had higher ratings of hp etc I'm sure there are other minor changes but I think the motors are basically the same Paul

The Australian Army Macks could only of been Tip Turbine as chassis mounted intercoolers werent even a Mack thing at the time I doubt a Flintstone has ever had a chassis mounted intercooler in Australia Paul

I haves always done all my own work Driving the little spray truck is just like driving a mini minor, you can't help but smile It's so ridiculous but so much fun, 4x4 diesel, 5 speed over drive tipping tray and tiny I think the R model cab is more spacious ha ha Paul

Struth these birthdays just don't stop coming around Happy birthday Mackey58 Paul

Been up and at it for Saturday Sprayed weeds last night after fitting a new slave cylinder to the spray truck

I put all stainless steel bolts nuts and washers in my mirror brackets and aircleaner straps Stops the rust stuff in the future Most of the stainless and chrome trim cleaned up okay, not show quality but it's original still Paul

Bob would be easy to find with the smoke signals Paul

A bottle of Bourbon a fire and get the tyre off the rim and keep the mosquitoes away Tyre on the fire The perfect night Paul

I watched this today, as I recall this era It was awe inspiring to all around the world The world dared to dream and have a crack at the impossible Today there's Bonnie Blue shagging 1000 men in 24 hours How has this happened The bloody woke brigade lowering everyone to the lowest common denominator Learning fractions at school has paid dividends These fine men inspired the world to be the very best it could be I reckon JFK was like that, be the very best you that you can be And yes, watch the whole video, so much more interesting and worthwhile than the click bait rubbished pushed Good job Buzz Aldrin and Zoey What a wonderful world we once had were we inspired all around us to be the best they could be I do often think of Paul Harvey's words "I believe in my god, my country and myself" Paul

I will search and see if I can find the whole interview Paul

If you are still struggling and with no result I know of a way that works really well and it doesn't involve burning the tyre off But the tyre is no good for anything afterwards A Stanley knife and a good blade Just cut the wall off, I have done this before, yes it does work I cut closer to the tread side first Then once the tread is off Cut the tube and rust band off Then with whats left cut the wall down near the rim off Now there's only the bead left Rim and the remaining tyre are on a bench while I do this bit With a wire wheel on your angle grinder, start on the inside of bead The wire thats in the band appears quick enough, cold chisel or angle cutting disc and cut the bead The remaind of the tyre drop pretty shortly after that I have needed this on crappy old farm gear thats been sitting full with water and mud and crap and the rims rusted and expanded I'm sure all you muscle men don't have to go the limp dick way like this, but for me, well needs must occasionally Paul

It has a padded dash ? I have never seen a padded dash in R model A few different people make new dashes, but if your not in Australia they will be of no use to you as they are RHD Paul
