  1. So if Volvo dropped the Mack name and branded everything as VOLVO, you would okay with that???
  2. I think the bottle would be too stiff and not seal. But give it a try.
  3. Sounds like an early birthday "kick in the nuts". Wish you luck in getting the issue resolved.
  4. I looked under the hood tonight...E6.
  5. WD40 is a "Water Dispersant" and the 40 is the 40th try. Hence WD-40 is not much good for rust penetration. I like PB Blaster or Kroil.
  6. I looked tonight and I cannot see any grease fittings on the fifth wheel pivot or underneath. I scraped some of the hard old grease out of the grooves and will apply a coating of fresh grease before I leave. Going Tuesday morning to pickup the trailer...pics to follow.
  7. I don't think "rubber" and brake fluid are compatible. I would suggest neoprene. But I am no chemist.
  8. I agree....good choice for obvious reasons. Better to change your mind now rather than regret your decision after it is sold. I still have my dad's two (2) farm tractors that have not run since he died in 1991. I still have his 1990 Dodge D150 pickup (35K miles) that I drive locally. I plan to keep them until I HAVE TO SELL THEM.
  9. New Content works okay for me. I am using Internet Explorer 8 and 9 (depending on computer). What changed to the "Like This"? It used to show who liked a message but now it does not.
  10. Never noticed until you mentioned it.
  11. Tom - you are playing with fire!!
  12. Buy this one and sell the other.
  13. Hose would have put me "over the edge"!
  14. Mount Pilot was derived from Pilot Mountain.
  15. Here you go Vinny...your second U and a dump box too. Send them an email and they might provide the cereal number.
  16. I have a 1992 MH612. Pics in my gallery.
  17. As others and I said before....do a used oil analysis. Lots of value for a few $$.
  18. Chrysler changed from using LH threads around 1973. I owned a 1973 Duster 340 and it had RH threads all around.
  19. Hopefully this week if it ever stops raining. I am anxious to do my first hookup....with the trailer that is. And there will be pics.
  20. At the farm where I store my MH, I saw this R795S dump sitting there this morning. Note the driver's door inside handle.
  21. Yea, and make sure you get the cereal number!
  22. This morning I connected the batteries in the MH and it started after about 2 revolutions. Built up air pressure, moved it back and forth a few times, shutdown, and drained tanks. Whew....alot of work in one day for an old fart. Then after lunch I drove by the ODFL terminal. There sitting all alone was the trailer. Looks just as good as it does in the AZ pictures. Another fifth wheel question...is there any lubrication needed on the locking mechanism or pivot?
  23. What scraper?
