  2. wow your were very unlucky I have only ever heard of rims letting go after tyre fitting and filling with air what happened to you could happen to any type of rim car truck or tractor very very unlucky I bet you will be very careful even near a tyre for a long time to come best wishes for a speedy recovery Paul

  9. I recently went to Brisbane and for the first time in a long time I saw more Macks on B double work I feel than all other brands put together and they all appeared to be the new Trident's I think is what they call them Paul And I feel they are not a bad looking jigger either they made such an impression I jumped on google and checked them out you never no
  10. Mack would have to be less it would all depend on were you go as a guess for roadtrain and heavy haulage I would guess Mack out sell KW for interstate down south I reckon it would be the other way around a Aussie truck magazine used to publish the figures each month but they have gone as well now so it is all just a guess Paul
  11. looking good looks like you have a centipede living there with all them shoes Paul
  12. Dunno Im no expert but we have gotta start some where in life as a "wanna b" we can all point the finger at each other all day "not my fault he did" that isnt going to solve bugger all the bloke that own's the truck is at blame partly because he's worker wasnt told or made to supervise loading or unloading the bloke driving he's also at fault he should have been watching loading and unloading and should have known better than to sit in the cab while all of this is taking place and the fella driving the dozer off well he is also at fault he should have made sure his rippers were up and also that ol'mate in the cab was out side keeping an eye on things before he unloaded I was told as a young fella when I very first started work "Paul those that have never blown anything up have never tried" I always took that to mean we all have to start some were and we all make mistakes just dont repeat them and those that have never made a mistake have never really tried If it was my mate I would just have a laugh at his misfortune (thats the Aussie way to laugh at each other) and move on I have enough of my own problems in life with out taking anybody else's on board but thats just me good luck to your mate , his driver and the truck and trailer seeya Paul

  18. as everyone else has said great pics thanks for sharing Paul
  19. we dont have many road tunnels in Australia come think of it apart from the few real big ones in the citys I can only think of one in country areas and it was a train tunnel they are pretty long beams you are towing Tim must have to take some planning to get around the corners on some of the roads or does the dolly at the back solve all those problems ?? Paul
  20. the motorized dolly is a bit of NZ thing I think I have some photos of one made out of Federal 604 tank transporter must have being made back 50's or 60's a pretty cool jigger considering what they would have had to work with Paul
  21. thats a pretty cool looking fire truck strange being painted red perhaps its a NZ thing ? what other good things did they have there Tim Paul
  22. Well it looks some one has got a new toy and just cant get enough of it like a kid on chrissy mourning with a new Tonka they have always wanted Paul
