    Change one of those type in a Transtar with a maxxforce or a Freightliner with a MBE900 then you might think otherwise. From the looks of it they are in the same locations. I beg to differ, poking a hole in the bottom of a spin on and letting it drain into a pan is a lot easier and quicker to change than the cartridges type with the cap on top and o-ring. The cartridge style is, in my opinion, is messier and less effivent to access for maintenance than a spin on. It's the old saying K.I.S.S., especially with the amount of EGR soot being recirculated, higher oil temps, and recommended service intervals.

    They still have the bastard cartridge filters in a bastard location.

    All the CXU have mp7 with 10spd road rangers. The Hino was a Hino diesel. Must have been another vendor because I have yet to see a CNG Hino. Talon has Volvos with the Westport same with Beemac but, both have filling stations on there property so logistics aren't bad.

    Yeah pretty nice drive through bays at the garage. How are those cascadias holding up? I've worked on a couple Volvos with the CNG Cummins Westport but just for leaking o-rings in valves and fuel solenoids. Our side lot is packed with new pinnacles for delivery. The U.S. Cargo was a Hino Box truck.

    We were a short a driver one day last week to deliver some new units to P-O new facilities in Harmerville. I was sent up to drop one off. It's a pretty nice complex.

    Any further info on the new cab? Pictures? Specs?On that note yeah, Id like to see the super liner return. I've only "moved" a Titan that was in for service but I did drive the D16 in a Volvo and it had good power. We serviced a heavy hauler from NJ that had a 11-12? Titan and he had nothing but great things to say about it.

    Doing both is easier than just half. Push out the old with your foot cafefully, clean up old seal, install glass into seal, rope outer edge, lube seal, get helper to lift glass/seal, set bottom first, pull rope, and finesse. Lol it's easier said then done. I've done about 10-12 in the last 6 months.

    Start withe the easy stuff grounds and circuit breakers. What truck is it? Did you check the fusable link? I recently had a GU granite that had power to the chassis and the fusable link was only halfway burned through.

    This is a gray area and members at BMT have discussed this in length in the past. If you search for old posts about the topic you will most likely come across them. The gray area is that the language says "can not carry for commercial use" unless it's been changed in the last couple years. I've always treated the antique truck hobby as if were a commercial truck. Look legal and act legal. Keep the truck and trailer maintained and secured as if it were a commerical truck.

    It would be inline on the drivers side towards near the rad.

    Governor controls cut out and cut in pressure for the air compressor. Did you check for any leaks? If the compressor is running constantly to keep up it will get hot.

    I have owned 2 duramax diesels. One with 99k on it and the other 215k and I loved them. I popped head gaskets on the higher mileage one but I bought it with 160k on it. I'm my opinion couple a durmax and an Allison and its a pretty stout combo.

    If your truck has Daytons with 11r24.5 tires on it means that you have 22" hubs (Dayton) spokes. To go up in tire/rim size to 1200-24" you would have to find the right hubs for the wheel bearings and change those to 24" and change the tire/rims.

    Wow I've always heard stories and seen scars but not first hand. Hope all is better or getting better.

    Exactly. They all need to man up and pay their fair share.

    I know in the past, if the belts looked ok ie not fraying, chaffing, cracks, or dry rot, I've put a little dielectric grease on belts that squeal and that usually corrects it. It's worth a shot if you plan on getting new belts anyway.

    Bullshit. Walmart should stop mooching of the government and U.S. taxpayers for assistance subsides for workers. http://www.forbes.com/sites/clareoconnor/2014/04/15/report-walmart-workers-cost-taxpayers-6-2-billion-in-public-assistance/

    When I converted mine I need the following-water pump, gaskets,oil cooler, oiler cooler tube to spin on housing, and spin on housing. Plus new O-rings. Remember there are two different size o-rings that look similar. As far as the water filter its just the water filter manifold and gaskets.
