    The Volvo F88 had torsion bar tilt cab which worked very well on reasonably level ground...One I drove popped a water hose going down a steep hill.The repair required the cab to be tilted but when repaired I had a hell of a job to get the cab back down.At one point 6 guys were pulling and hanging out of it to no avail.In the end we had to winch it back down with a rachet strap.....Good old days when guys would stop to help Paul

    Yeah thats right....I have been told the TM was sold in austraila badged as a GMC.Dont know if thats true but I did see a picture from down under of a TM with GMC badges on it.Mrs Mack might be able to tell us more.... Paul

    Have to agree,American cabovers just look perfect.Love the square lines and the paint jobs.Europian trucks just look "soft" for want of a better word...The last euro truck that looked good was the Scamell Cruisader or the Bedford TM...both beautiful...Heres a TM..... Paul

    Just watched Scarface again.Great movie.Theres a green Cruiseliner day cab truck and trailer hauling timber on a freeway in opening few minutes.Its at 08.16 on the clock.Like that movie even more now!!! Paul
  23. cruiseliner64
    Thanks for that info.....but look what I found stamped on the axle inside the brake hubs...... Paul
  24. cruiseliner64
    Many thanks for that info.18,000lb would seem to fit the build of this Cruiseliner.Would Meritor have made this axle or just supply after market parts? Paul

    Quoteing $1234 and then inviting offers is very common over here.It simply means the seller dont know the value and has a price in their head.It also feels out the market as what price something will make....kinda like an auction..... Paul
