  1. Third weekend in a row I have driven my B61 to a ATHS function, total 1032 mi.  Temp 100 degree, dog house makes it hot.  I really respect the old timers that did that every day.

    Question of the month.  How long is a 711 dipstick??   Cable on mine, like a speedometer cable, is unraveling.  Not sure of oil level.  THANKS  Richard

  2. New to Mack trucks.  Tires are 11-22.5,  41 inches tall.  Transmission is 5 and 2.  Last drove with GPS, guess it was wrong.  Installed speedometer gear so now speedometer  works.  Driving this weekend to ATHS show,  will check to se if possibly not shifting out of low range.      Thanks for all replies                                          Richard 

  3. I have a 1964 B67 that against the governor, 2000 RPM, runs 52 MPH.  The truck is equipped with a 4.25 rear end.  I want to run 65 MPH.  The speed, RPM, ratio formula tells me that 65 at 1800 RPM needs  3.40 gearing.  With a 711 engine pulling a 1 car trailer is there power to pull this gearing and is this ratio available?

    Thanks   Richard
