  2. How did the extra gauges turn out would like to see some pics I just cut a hole in my dash and got rid of the lighter and added a pryo gauge and yes one small project is never small lol
  3. Looks like you have a Stuart Warner volt gauge I would stick with it I had an amp gauge and it shorted while I was driving and caught the truck on fire was able to pull over and disconnect the batteries had to cut all the heavy wire out of the cab now I just pick up voltage anywhere

  5. Bob I replaced the hoses on my canister filter on my 673 one end was flat and 2 bolts clamped it to the block and the other end was male pipe all the fitting were removable I just used black aeroquip line I bought some at work then cut it to length I work at a cat dealer don’t know the part number but it was a common hose we stocked it was identical to what I removed
  6. We could move this over to the trying to beat the high cost of meat topic
  7. My father in law has a farm they board horses and he has some beef cows if he takes them to auction he don’t get any thing for them so he sends them off to the butcher then we will split it with one of my sister-in-law’s so we get half a beef for just the price of the butchering I have a big grinder and meat saw and he wants us to start doing it our selves but we don’t have anywhere to hang it or to store that much meat I have done a few deer but a whole cow seems a bit big for me don’t want to bite off more than I can chew lol

  11. They are hard to find I’m on the east coast so not much around my axle is light so finding a whole different one would be best it’s my understanding a super liner axle will work or a freightliner fld axle too but some modifications are needed but they fit the fenders
  12. About the weight debate years ago we had a grade all at work that we had rail gear added to it for the customer with this added it was so heavy it had to be permitted to drive it on the road . The company’s idea was to pull the fuel tanks off and put a 20 gallon tank you would have no run time . It all ready had steel hub pilot wheels so I suggested switching them to aluminum. Switched all ten wheels and we were under weight where we needed to be .
  13. Wow Texas that’s too far for me I want to change out the front axle in my b model the rear is all hub pilot so I would like to find a budd axle with brakes or a hub pilot out of something else that would fit
