This isn't funny. For some reason I saw this and had a vision of her and Killary running in 2024. YOU laughed about the clown this thread is dedicated to too.....remember that.

For what it's worth, most trucks that have been around a while don't just need the bar ( shaft, spindle.. what ever you want to call it ) if you're going to remove it anyway, with the frame suspended cut through the bar in the center. Unless it stays perfectly in place after a slice through the middle, the trunnion stand is shot. ( like Joey mentioned ) probably easiest to put one of those erector sets in a packer than wrestling with the body. Of course this requires lots of cutting to get the old one out too. 🤷🏻♂️ No easy way out on this one.

I went to Hunter Peterbilt. They hooked the truck to a laptop. Maybe that's what they're talking about ???
-
It's in one of those after the end. You know how more are there if you click on it. It was really uneventful compared to the outside view. Not what you'd expect.
-
Yes, pretty sad when a clown such as myself being facetious is close to what people believe is the best thing to do.
-
Maybe even have lebron comment on it, and some excerpts of btriney griner. And WTF...throw in some thoughts from aoc. These are the people who represent our democracy and know what needs to be done
-
There's one where a guy goes for a ride along and videos it. That footage from inside the truck doesn't look anywhere near as abusive as from the outside.
-
It used to be funny, now ???? we really are living it in way too many ways to be comfortable with.

Personally, a Small Cam 350 with two straight 5" sounded awesome. Even with mufflers, they had a very distinctive combustion clatter. And YES at one point they were considered a "big" HP engine.....cause then, they were.
-
A while back, truck pulls were all the rage around here for a short time. Guy was going on and on telling me all about how far each guy went and what broke n all. I told him my one tractor drug 25 tons of coal all the way to Lake George, and then it drug another 25 tons of stone back here. His response ??? "you're an a$$ hole" 😂 I guess different guys use trucks for different reasons.
-
Superliner with a Cat wasn't too uncommon. My bet is that FL had a Small Cam 350 (just my guess)
-
I've often thought we're living that movie......electrolites and all
-
I've seen a fairly new W900L painted like a Montfort truck. ( maybe there's several ??? ) It made me think " how many people know what that is painted like that trying to look like " it did look pretty good too. Guess that's what you call timeless good looks .
-
I watch and wonder myself. I get some guys have them just for that, but some look as though they're working trucks. Hard to believe components can take it.
-
Animals ????? I thought this was advise for some women I've met over the years
-
I agree. Honestly though, the transmission mount part ......I'm ok with that. Eaton isn't too far behind with manual transmissions either. 8LL, FRO 10s, 13 and 18 final four.
-
If it's a 505, the bell housing isn't the issue like it was with grey engines. If you don't have a PTO, it's a relatively easy swap. At this point, you almost have to wonder about availability of Mack transmission parts by the time the next repair rolls around. (yes I realize that's a sad perspective on things) Let's face it though, Volvo has no interest in manual Mack transmissions.

Paul Paul Paul...... Swishy was famous long before this.
-
2K for heads ???🤢 holy cow
-
OMG..... I couldn't have presented that better myself
-
Someone PMed tat info to you
-
How true. It can get confusing . Maybe he has the one that's just a basic ten speed ? ( I myself can't tell from the picture)
-
Think "woke" will make an impression like this in 78 years ?
-
RTLO 18s have a low (low ratio) I'd look it up but I wanna say like 14 to 1 (?) If I'm not mistaken the T310 is very close to the ratios of an 8LL (if it's one with reverse on the yellow button.... then there's two of those just to make it interesting (lol) I think it's the MLR has some really low gears (like 17 to 1) I think that 18B is like 14 to 1, check it out .
-
Depending which 18 , some models are lower than the 13. The 18 speed RTLOs have a lower low gear than the 13s (some depending on gear set) The 13 can be converted to an 18. Sounds like a pretty fast axle to try and accomplish crawling through soft earth loaded no matter what transmission.
