Roadways U model
Mark T replied to mowerman's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
That U looks like it's parked next to an extended hood White Road Boss -
Funny how that works. Seems like for some reason you feel more in charge or secure (or something) in a truck.

Skippy Mack

I know..... that manifold was something. I had a good feeling about that guy when I saw the picture of him tig welding by the highly flammables in the shop. They did go through that truck like a house on fire. Often wondered what ever happened afterwards. -
Yes it was (G)as (O)n it (A)nd (L)eave

I thought the husband was an airplane mechanic . Guy was pretty talented whatever he does. -
Then the truck took off row'n gears. Usually that would be something you'd expect to see with a truck with some form of automated transmission. Still. Not too far from reality in ways, even if it wasn't
-
I have my doubts it real . Even at that, it's funny as hell and unfortunately not extremely overdone. It's not hard to think of a time seeing someone keep trying something over several times in situations they get into.

Now you don't know if that's true . Might've been Prime

I stand corrected. In the driver's defense though, he did continue on to deliver that load .

🤔 we have a new type of truck driver here in The States...... they can't go backwards either

CH613 EA7 410 using coolant no external leaks

If that is the issue, and that tool comes into play ? someone's gonna have awfully sore arms by the time it's all done -

Probably rotted by the bottoms of the liners. -
Don't look back.... you're not go'n that way
-
Eh..... just as well it was a little flash in the pan. You'd maybe ended up still sport'n a mullet , on dope and Taylor Swift would write a nasty song about ya.

Sounds like a good time to take the oil pan off it, pressurize the cooling system and see where it seems to be coming from..... then get ready to spend some money. -
Doesn't hurt to take the blow gun and blow some shop air over the hole Joey's talking about while trying to fill it back up.

The Mud Mountain guy was on Hiway Through Hell in one episode. Then he ended up with his own show.

!!!! due too limited supplies OD reserves the right to substitute actual rocks with dried dog feces !!!! gotta watch the fine print too
-
Joey's right. Never mind shims, if you have a torque rod that's the wrong length to start out with . Someone has nice big bushings in them already.... which don't come in them ( so good chance they could be wrong length ) I see the shocks are on the back (good) You're way closer to being in line than you think as far as making it work goes. Major issue with side to side misalignment is those torque rods (or something to do with them)
-
The side to side torque rod does determine the difference I see on the tape measure. ( most of it anyway ) all those new U bolts are going to need to be retightened before long. FYI, that truck isn't really fixed from what's in the pictures , might be a little better than it was though
-
Now now Bob...... at least that one chick is a hotty You need to get on The Weather Channel and watch Mud Mountain Haulers, just tell the Mis's if you watch much more Big Bang Theory you're gonna be overcome with the urge to start sit'n down to pee

Allison diesel Engine? Photos
Mark T replied to realwolfdaddy's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I think Roger Penske used the same philosophy as those guys in Peoria , went out on top and let someone else have the headaches to come. Not sure I could fault the guy for that. -
With any luck... really far. God help us

He's just not as comfy on that side of the lens as some of his subjects

B-21 Fire truck
Mark T replied to MorrisMe's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Hall Scott is pretty big (one of that model anyway) I've only ever saw one in real life. It was big , sorta like big bore Cat in some respects. An impressive looking engine somewhat like it was ahead of it's time or something. I bet as far as length , an E7 would fit where the Hall Scott would. .
