ok. I understand..

I wonder what belt gauges they have in Ireland. I assume its a 13 mm wide 37 degree belt, but im clueless..
-
Do you have the old belt ? If you cant read the numbers on it, cut it and measure it. Then bring it or a good peice to the parts house, and use it to get the correct angle and width.

CH/CL/CX... How about RD hood springs? -
GW... I'm thinking about mounting a 5th wheel and a pogo stick with air lines and a trailer cord, just for looks... I have no intentions of using the truck for anything but to show it and drive it around town.
-
I prefer the West Coast set up. I have a box of mirror frames from RD Macks. I may try to work them into shape to fit the doors. Drilling holes in my doors is gonna hurt. My doors are really nice for 77 years old..

Really all the methods mentioned will work. The second Mack shop I worked at was below the grade of the main road, so i would pull up on the hill and sit for a couple minutes, then turn the truck around and do it again. The young guys would look at me funny when I was sitting out there leaned over to one side... Oh well. At least I didnt burn wheel bearings . -
The back up light and alarm will be here tomorrow. I have bumper mounted turn signals coming today for the front. I need to get a pair of mirrors for Sanford. I want west coast style mirrors, but I see small round mirrors mounted to the door hinges, in some of the pictures I have looked at.

It amazes me at times about how long it takes to install parts, and It looks so simple when done. Im taking a break. May just drink some bevvies and watch Football.. 🍺

The shield on the back of the hub resembles those on the B Model. And the inner seal as well.. i am in no way smart about B Models.. i have done a lot to a few of them, but not enough to post correctly. -
Paul is right..

Bob... I looked in my Library of Mack books and I dont have info about wheel ends for any '66 Macks. What range of years shared the same wheel end parts ? -
Same here. The originator had issues with some of the comments, as I was a witness. The next day it was gone. Frankly, the reaction was childish. Smart guys gave smart advice and experience related to the posting.. You didnt miss much on that post..
-
GW.. my idea is to mount as much of the original parts that I have to make it look like 1948 again. Of course i dont have the correct paint and decals. I took the horn apart and sand blasted it before paint. I think it will work, it was really clean inside. The voltage regulator looks to be good too, but its there for looks. I may attach some wires to it to make it look like it functions.
-
Well Bob, I didnt make excuses.. I spent time in my shop. I ran some modern wireing and hid it under the seat in this side compartment.
-
Not sure what you mean.. post a picture. Those rears. Will leak in a couple spots.

You sir seem to be very smart about them GW... Ive seen a few, but dont know much. I like your idea of re- lining them. And he needs to keep his cores if there is a ready made shoe.. -

Bob. Are the brakes a 4515 ? If so, spring kits are everywhere. Also how did you try to find the wheel seal number ? Stemco has cross reference charts on-line. Also.. is your DM a '79 ? -
