    It's really hard to sit still during such claims.

    "make billions for himself" this one is great. Only President that came into office with more net worth than he left with and came back to do it again. Anybody really think the man isn't aware of his own mortality ? No doubt, we're at an ugly place. No getting out of it that's going to be pretty. Lots of these things that are unpopular need to be done. Personally......I'm not see'n Gavin Newsom or Harris capable of ever doing any of it. Not even that man's man Walz. (oh wait a minute...he's a little busy with his somalis people who truly love this country no profiting going on there)

    They were something Paul. Some had factory custom paint, metal flake grill surrounds. chrome (I guess what would be the fenders on a cabover in the front). Fancy upholstered interiors. Usually when they had all that "bling" they had what was big power at the time as well. Guys were qquite proud of them around here.

    Are they good for 76000 ? I haven't stayed up on what's legal now in Connecticut as far as weights on the dumps.

    🤷‍♂️ sometimes when those self adjusting ones stop self adjusting, it's cause they shouldn't be adjusted any more. Clutch becomes hard as a rock to push in and usually no longer engages smoothly. I think F has the right idea.

    Paul confused us all with a couple pictures of his clutch. He's probably thinking " wtf did these guys do first time they got a look in a Playboy magazine ?" The 1/2" should be between where the bearing and clutch brake is where it would squeeze against the front of the transmission. Which we can't see that in the pictures. Gotta remember, the more the big ring is turned to adjust it, the less holding force the clutch has.
  11. Mark T
    I made a tool for that. Sometimes the ring isn't very cooperative.

    I meant Paul down under. Wouldn't surprise me that type was popular there.
  13. Mark T
    🤔 I have a feeling a guy named Paul has some input on this subject.
  14. Mark T
    That clutch isn't something I've ever encountered. It's definitely a Spicer angle spring, but even the release yolk looks different than I'm used to seeing.
  15. Mark T
    Almost looks like that (adjustment) plate could be swapped for a push in and turn adjuster . If the ring would move....or you could find one in Ireland in the first place.
  16. Mark T
    Yeah.... how foolish were those pirates ? No wonder yo don't hear about them anymore.
  17. Mark T
    Hard to tell , almost looks like there's no clutch brake either. Hard to tell how big it is too. Worst case if an attempt to service it in the truck doesn't work, replacements are available that'll go right in there without much trouble.
  18. Mark T
    priceless
  19. Mark T
    Can't help but wonder who's in the pictures.
  20. Mark T
    I never saw one like that. Looks like some kind of self adjusting 14" angle spring. Might be it's worn to a point there is no adjustment left. I really don't know, but it sure has me curious.
  21. Mark T
    Sorry
  22. Mark T
    YES. Funny thing, we used to produce women like that here in Pennsylvania. Now....
  23. Mark T
    I wasn't sure. I only remember her checking out under the car before it blasted off. You know, she was always bend'n over looking for leaks or something that might cause a problem.

    Hey........ I think Jungle Pam had that "boobage" thing going on.
  25. Mark T
    Yep, I Shift. I guess that's why they're not 800 horse. Paul was right (again) I was reading about them for almost an hour. Then there's the part about them running on vegetable oil.
