Looking for a 20' flatbed to put on a tandem truck. Other lengths may work, but would perfer a 20' bed. If you have anything that might work please give me a call thanks. 717-487-6681

Thanks, reasonably priced parts are getting hard to find.
-
It appears to be all factory married to a quad box.
-
Its time replace my motor mount bushings and need to determine if I have the front trunnion type or the other style. It is in a 1965 B61 with a 711. How can I tell which ones I need? Thanks.
-
Unless they are in really bad shape you would be surprised what you can do with some steel wool. I would recommend starting with that and see what you think.

I hear that, I am loking into restoring B Model windows, glass and rubbers and think I will need to take out a second mortage. It takes some of the fun out of the hobby when it hits the pocket book so hard.
-
Yeah I know, I was just hoping that someone had run across something on line in some sort of spread sheet format.
-
I am looking for engine, transmission, chassis, etc. info on trucks after the B-model. Specifically info on RW's but interested in the gap between 1967 and 1993ish. Any leads or links would be helpful, thanks.
-
Good to know, has anyone else had issues with finding parts or have a good parts store they use?
-
-
Finally made time to post some pictures of the restoration process. As we get time we tinker.

If you are dealing with split rims I would chain them incase they decide to come apart, if you dont have split rims not an issue. I have had tractor tires that you could not break the bead with out a machine, and others that break down and come apart real easy. Dont know until you try.

I have a b73 with a factory equiped 3 speed aux behind a duplex, I could get some details off of the truck if you need.

That sounds good, anything you can get would be helpful. If you get a chance and can snap a picture or two that would be good too.
-
If you need one, I have an extra aux. transmission that is in good condition, the truck only had 70,000 miles and it worked smoothly. Let me know if you are interested - (573)219-6611.
I will give you a ring if I decide to go that route, I need to determine what type of gear ratios I will end up with. Thanks for the offer, I will keep digging to see what I can learn.

What size rubber is that truck on?
When I was back east we had 7:00 rears behind a double over quad box, on 11:00 - 22 rubber and they would run 60 MPH @ 2100 RPM.
Is your engine achieving 2100 RPM? If not, fix the throttle linkage or adjust the hi speed stop screw so that it does get 2100.
.
I will have to check, it does have 11.00-22's. The other week I ran across a B-73 with three sticks and it sparked my interest.
-
I have a toy truck with a aux behind a ten speed but if it is a work truck it can be problem if not taken care of.
This is mainly a play truck too, I dont plan on hauling much with it. (12-15 tons maybe) For the most part I would like to be able to go to shows with out being run over and still maintain my bottom end if I do decide to take a tractor along.
-
Has anyone added another auxiliary box behind a quad box or equivalent transmission? I would like to keep all of my low gears and leave the rear ratio where it is. Currently its a quad box (18 speed) and a 7.00 rear. The only issue is that the top speed in the B61 is 50 MPH and I would like to boost it just a bit. (10-15 MPH) Any pictures, auxiliary information, etc. would be helpful. Looking to learn what I would have to acquire to do the job.
-
Nice lowboy, I'd like to find one like that for a tandem.
-
Any luch finding the rears number? I too looked once and found the axle housing number but not the rear. Anyone have a picture of this number, I may have just over looked it.
-
Good morning, I need help getting a tandem road tractor hauled from Macon Georgia to York Pennsylvania after next Sunday the 27th of September. The truck is 20'-6" long, it runs and drives good.
-
I too was playing around with gears and ratios. Here is all I could really get out of a TRQ-7220 quadbox.

I have to agree with Superdog, I can’t believe that we cannot duplicate the originals. Maybe I am too particular but in the antique tractor world this would never fly. Personally, this would have to be a last resort. I just like certian things to look original.
-
The truck looks good. Needs a few cosmetic things like emblems (which I have priced and seem to be expensive, if anyone knows a good place to buy let me know) and battery box lids. Interior looks really clean. If the engine and transmission are in good shape I would say its a fair price.
