  1. They also will not let you in federal buildings without the what AR calls the "enhanced" dl. It's bs for sure.
  2. I watched that vid the other day. I assumed either the mic being real close to the stacks, or that truck had issues that was causing it to sound like crapola.
  3. That I know of. If I had heard it, I would have thought something was wrong with it.
  4. I have never seen one in person.
  5. I guess you could call it a thump. It kinda sounds like a bad spray nozzle.
  6. What is that horrible popping noise I keep hearing in these aussie macks? Is that just a common trait of the v8 powered trucks?
  7. I owned a 77 road boss2 twin screw dump at one time. It had a shiny 290 and a 13spd. It was a great truck.
  8. Make a great lowboy tractor to use for recovering broke down dump trucks off the job.
  9. Somebody needs to save the one in the last pic.
  10. Very impressive. Glad there are some of us that like to keep those ol girls working.
  11. That vid is awesome. Beautiful country. I wish the audio was better. It made that truck sound like crapola.
  12. I have two RL600 west coasters. The hoods aren't flat.
  13. The sweep back on the fenders and the dual headlights are exclusive to them it seems. I wonder if they are all like that, or if that is a setback front axle version.
  14. I realize they are not the right parts. I am 99% sure they will work though. I wouldn't try them if I wasn't sure. The only problem I might have is that they are not long enough to account for the extra width of a west coast frame. I can fix that with some spacers between the mount and the trans if I need to.
  15. Best I can tell these mounts are going to position the engine just about the 5/8" forward that was mentioned in a previous post. It would save me a whole day and probably $200 in material to fab mounts. It's springtime, I have dumped a shit ton of money in that old girl last year getting her ready for some big jobs coming up. She needs to go to work badly. I have two more just like her I need to get done.
  16. Yes, I believe that is the same as an RL/RS.
  17. We can tell enough to know those aren't the right numbers. I think they will work though.
