  1. You're most likely looking at a tractor someone made a dump truck out of. CHs in general were only so big as heavy spec goes. It'll probably work for some jobs and others would destroy it fast. You never mentioned if it's a Mack or Fuller 9 speed. Or how big the engine is. Changing the transmission ? If it's a Fuller in there now, an 8LL would be the one to change to. In general, it sounds like maybe this truck isn't the best choice for you.
  2. Yes. Those shoes are as ridiculous on her as on me.....even with my shapely legs 🦵🦵

    The one I have is different
  4. It'll even work under clothes....like a blouse or something
  5. Saves a lot of headaches sometimes. Some stuff you need to kinda know what to look for but I'd buy another one in a second after having one.
  6. Oh come on..... just cause she could've made a better choice for an outfit ? Give'r a break . Some may be shocked to learn a woman who knows car or truck show apparel is a rare find.
  7. My old SnapOn guy got me that . It was around 20 years ago. It is handy . That and the camera. The resolution on that is really good and it can interface with something with a bigger screen
  8. and in case you're kick'n it old school avoid some guess work
  9. CH never really was big enough to be a "good" tri-axle chassis. They only got so big.....but I've seen plenty made into them . Not ideal, but they work. Not sure where this truck is either, maybe weight limits aren't so high. The hours sound sorta high, but may or may not mean a lot about how much life is left in it. I don't see a black or white answer for this guy's question by reading some text , easier to give him an evaluation (opinion) actually seeing the truck.
  10. Yes and again by the porta potties . Sorta looks like maybe experiencing a wedgey
  11. Nowadays there's guys (?) that call a truck with a manual transmission a "shifter truck " then you might hear them say something like " they wanted me to drive 62, but that's a shifter truck...it's not on my license, so I got the day off "
  12. Lots of those guys never drove a truck with no power steering, let alone two sticks.....or know what to do with them.
  13. I'm gonna look again. Only so I can see what it is you're describing......just for good measure
  14. Those engines , the cam gear isn't keyed. But if it did move a little everything else would be off too. Not just one cylinder.
  15. It's a good show. Over here they were a really popular truck that guys liked. Seems like every year a few more seem to materialize. Maybe I view it that way cause I remember them from when I was young or cause my first truck was one. Draws trucks ( all Brockway ) from several states and even out of the country.
  16. ???? I was referring to the foot traffic where all the cars were 😇
  17. This one has me curious now.
  18. I'm starting to notice a pattern here 🤔
  19. I remember years back a guy used to not pay attention to the injector washers (at the tip) Those engines made some odd noises.
  20. 😳 Now wait a minute..... never said it was a him (lol)
  21. Just an FYI I once got a slap for making a comment like that about someone's backyard
  22. There's an adapter that goes in the injector hole and reaches in there then a piece that screws in the hold down hole with a pipe thread port in it. So you need to remove the injector to test
  23. It's a lot easier than get'n flashed ...least I think so.
