    I found out today why the truck steered so hard, both tires had 20 lbs#. Way better now. I just took off the 5th wheel if anyone wants it come and get it plus a hydro. pump it will save me hauling to scrapyard. Dave

    Jhancock, the truck is that b-42 that was for sale here. it has hub pilot wheels 10-20 tube type . I remember doing early kingpins on r an f's you turned the brass bushing in with visegrips they were prefitted. I had 27 trucks to keep on the road. Thank you Underdog for your kind offer, I want to look things over a bit. I would like to thank everyone that has replied.

    I looked under at the spindles an I think this has a Rockwell axel maybe a 12000# looks like one on the freightliner tractors I used to repair. I was talking to my buddy and I don't remember my autocar steering this hard or my white cabover. He said maybe I am over the hill.

    Thank you, 57 bcr and back in black I didn't want air steering. I drove an F cabover with it and I just didn't care for it. I think the R steering setup looks like an interesting project.

    I took the truck for a short drive this morning. I will have to do something about the steering, I have a bad back and it just about did me in. Any ideas about power steering that a person can afford? I have a machine shop and fab shop I can use. Thank you Dave.

    I watch that show to see how bad it would be. I can't understand the big deal about the rear axle. I would of liked to see them working on it to see how they really sorted out that power steering.

    Underdog I bought the 42 jerry is going to haul it to my shop next week . I didn,t like the frame repair but I can do something with the truck. overall I felt it was not to bad. I am going to mount an old flat bed on the truck and haul some of my hit and miss engines to the tractor and truck shows. It is at least 35 years ago I worked on b models so I hope I remember something.

    Underdog, I am glad you listed the truck. I have you to thank. I worked for great northern trucking in Netcong an lived in bangor, but that was 36 years ago.
