  1. They were ok if you pulled a dry van on blacktop or something like that. They were from back in the time before air ride was the norm. So I'd have to agree with you.
  2. Scary part is there's people who listen to and believe this crackpot.....who married her brother. The epitome of how imigration is supposed to work.
  3. I believe that's what's Mack called "taper leaf" . Then depending where you live, some guys called them underslung. That looks like a pretty nice R Model. That suspension might not be the most desireable , but I'm not sure I'd pass on it because of it.
  4. That's some raw Chevrolet power right there. Simple really was better in so many ways.
  5. That's the first time I've ever heard that. It's an interesting thing. Not that I researched it or went out of my way to see it, but I had seen a few things about the pregnant flight suits. The idiots advocating for that nonsense never said a peep about any of that. This is one of Lord knows how many examples of the lunacy that was going on.......but DON'T tell anybody.
  6. And here I was thinking that the flight suits for pregnant (persons) was all BS. Is it me . or have so many of these events been the story line from episodes of Law & Order ?
  7. I remember seeing these up around Danbury/Waterbury area on Route 84 back in the late '80s .
  8. Not too often you see a guy rebuilding a Triplex. Fancy or not, we'll take it please.
  9. Mack had the strata tube with the scoop on the hood .
  10. Brocky, the Spencer he's associated with is big into Kenworth from in the '80s or '90s along with other models. There's some really nice trucks involved with them. You'd appreciate seeing any of them, but I don't ever remember seeing anything Mack. That RW fits in there, and I'm kinda hoping there'll be more.
  11. 😏 that might require it's own thread so we could examine the details wink wink
  12. Bob 😠 you stop that poor chuck came up with a new buzz word recently saying people are "aroused" and he's a man not afraid to talk about erections. And don't forget about those dramatic clenched fists during his speeches. On top of all this, he probably has seperation anxiety from nancy.
  13. Lot more ways to skin the cat back then. Now ? 8LL 10 13 or 18 and they all got one foot in the grave and the other on a bananna peel.
  14. You could get a 15 in a direct or overdrive. The overdrive version had a much higher lowest gear than a direct 15. I would have to agree, in a truck made to go down the highway, an RTO 13 was better suited to a Cummins of that period. Fifteen was friendlier to different set ups. Like 10s and 15s of that time really worked on Cats. I can speak from experience, a 15 over behind a Maxidyne with a 4.17 axle....pretty sweet. Little less than ideal for crawl'n around , but on the blacktop it works better than comes to mind with a Maxidyne. Larry already has 4.10s in the truck. That's why I mentioned it. His Triplex with 4.10s ??? it'll be pretty much like having an RTO 13 speed if he does away with the 4 way.
