  1. Wow that MH is fantastic.Please tell me someone saved it.... Paul
  2. Im very interested in this build.please keep us up to date with it.A bit of a side question but how rare is a tip turbine nowadays?I have never seen one but Im interested in how they run.. .... Paul
  3. 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
  4. Thanks for that info.....but look what I found stamped on the axle inside the brake hubs...... Paul
  5. 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
  6. Quoteing $1234 and then inviting offers is very common over here.It simply means the seller dont know the value and has a price in their head.It also feels out the market as what price something will make....kinda like an auction..... Paul
  7. Id say your right Bob...We want them because theyre the mudflaps on Pig Pens Cruiseliner... Paul
  8. Yeah freight charges are gone mad.We were quoted 450$ to ship two Mack mudflaps from the US to here.The flaps were only 60$.....crazy stuff Paul
  9. Yeah she was built for heavy haul operations.I was told Mack designed it for up to 300,000 lbs.Dont know how true that is but I do know her first job was hauling 200,000 lb beams for a motorway (freeway in the US) bridge project in the UK.... Paul
  10. 82 Cruiseliner with 1200/24 tyres.It was plated for 160,000 lb in the UK... Paul
  11. Many thanks for the info guys,I knew you guys would have the answer.We would be lost only for this site.Does anyone know what weight the axle is rated for? I do know its heavy duty but would love to know it's design load.... Paul
  12. Just repairing the rad,small weep from bottom corner,refitting alternator,front wheel seals,stripped the chassis for painting,painting engine,and if we have time painting the cab...Got a corner of a shop for 8 weeks so we are flat out trying to get all done....I cant afford to even think about being tired Bob.... Paul
  13. Hi all,we are trying to identify our front axle.We dont know what weight its rated for or what toqure the wheel bearing nut are.any help would be great.The pics show the only numbers we can find on the axle.Thanks for reading.. Paul
  14. You could be right about the engine being doctored up Mark.I feel bad for Nathen after all the work he put into it.Yes Macks are very very uncommon over here.Nathen's is the last Cruiseliner in the UK and ours is the only Cruiseliner to have ever been regestered in Ireland...I only know of 5 other Macks in Ireland...3 F models,1 R model and a gas powered 50s stake truck not sure of the model as Iv never seen it.Theres rumour of an MH lurking around the country but its unconfirmed as of now....I hope Nathen gets sorted soon...... Paul
  15. Nathan has had really bad luck with his Cruiseliner.I was talking to him during the week.He worked so hard to bring his truck back to life.Sometimes old iron can bite you hard.Clearly she suffered a loss of oil pressure but why?.... Paul
  16. Go have some fun bob....hope you all enjoy the 4th.America day!!!. Then get busy with the DM....Im up to my neck in our Cruisliner... Paul
  17. A hell of a lot of money but its a hell of a truck....as Paul said if its what you want then go for it.... Paul
  18. Me too bob.Very very interesting thred....Well done Vlad.... Paul
  19. Those are some pictures Brocky.Must have been some trip..... Paul
  20. Sorry to hear your better half is not well,prayers for her recovery.... Paul
  21. Yes plenty of pictures lads....Id love to go to Macungie some year...Its on the bucket list!!!! Paul
  22. Ah thanks Brocky,I didnt make the connection untill you pointed it out....and I had commented on on it too so thats even worse on my side...must be that age thing again.... Paul
