  1. Great photos, wish I had pics of my families and my stuff. Paul
  2. Opened up my Over Drive mag today, came sealed in plastic with an additional thing. Turns out it was a 2012 FrEiGhTLiNeR calender. Almost put it up in my yard office. Figured nobody would know, whats the harm? It's only a calender....I can take it down any time I want, and walk away.....I'm not addicted to Freightliners...I can quit! Tossed out and put up my Gaberalli Mack calender. I felt so dirty....Paul
  3. Cheaper to just eliminate the back of the fender in the forming process than make different tooling, I'd figure. Paul
  4. You wonder what the "H' goes through some ones mind to scrap something like that! Looks like a great save to me! Paul
  5. I never thought there could be another one...
  6. The red one has single rear wheels, it's a 3/4 ton ED. 1938 to 1944 , 2686 made. There is one for sale on Craigs list in eastern Conneticutt now for $7000..........confusing letter call outs ain't it? ED is less capacity than a DE which is less capacity than an E................... :twothumbsup:
  7. I was thinking the same thing on the hub or drum, they would both be constant and would also have gone away on light braking. Paul

    Sure thats a him? I see boobs... been a long week........
  10. The DE was the light weight version of the EE, about 900 made over 4 years and most were U.S. Navy General Service units. The main difference aside from the 1 ton less capacity, was longer front fenders and trim, the power pack and 20" wheels. Paul EE / EH
  11. You've got to admit...........most presidents are fun.....Ford tripping on ever thing, Bush tossing his cookies on the Japanese Prime Minister, Bill Clinton looking over the Korean DMZ with the lens caps on and how he kept losing his cigars, Bush jr. and the supermarket scanner, Reagan hitting the "launch" button instead of the snooze button.....They just are a wealth of puns. Heck even Nixon had his moments when Pat caught him seated in a Pete.............
  12. Nice!! Show it when you get all dressed up. Paul
  13. 1939 to 1942 Mack DE 1 1/2 ton. Powered by a Continental EN11 210 cubic inch 6 cylinder. It's missing a lot of trim on the nose and has the military pattern bumper assembly. Paul
  14. I don't know what Mack parts would fit, but both GM and Ford in the late 50's to the early 70's ran a P.S. unit that was attached to the center link. If that would work it would not require the stock box to be changed. Only the P.S. pump, lines and push / pull cylinder to be added. My B has Mack air assist steering probably adaptable to yours also. Paul
  15. Heres the other style air can with the short fender. Paul
  16. I try to help out some before the holidays.....that way I get more coal in may stocking.
  17. With a bounce that bad, I'd think if you jacked the front wheels off the ground and spun them you see which one . Than I'd start at the tire and move in from there. Your suspension has been checked? Paul
  18. Look at Gear Venders under drive / over drive set up. I believe you and get electric shift or a mechanical (twin stick) and button it up to a 4 ,5 ,o6 spped New Process gear box. You could also look for a Brown Lippe Auxilery box for 40's/ 50's medium trucks. Paul http://www.gearvendors.com/f2wdt.html
  19. I read opinions and jokes on political issues, but I don't believe I've ever seen a gender, a racist or any religious comments or bias on here... ever. (unless it's about somebody driving a Pete) Paul
  20. My exhaust it already runs like that and my bed lift cylinders clear by 14+ inches. I ordered the tanks and added the 2 brackets are included for only $25 more. Paul
  21. I figured on the exhaust. I was wondering about a third strap, figured I'd look at a few of the sand haulers tomorrow. Paul
  22. Not certain but it's probably to clear the air filter can. Paul
  23. Rob, conventional strap and bracket mount on the rear and no chassis interference aside from moving a harness. The cab has air ride and not the wide combo mount. Bullhusk, the tank is repairable, take a few hours to prep and TIG up. It needs about a foot of weld. But I'd rather have the longer legs I get from the larger tanks. Makes the trips to Va and Florida easier with 1/2 the fuel stops. Paul As for the J B Weld, probably would have worked if they prepped the surface instead of making it look like a weld.
