Think n back in history me thinx the early hi torque maxidynes were fitted with a 5 or 6 speed mack cog box the idea when driving @ full reves 2100 RPM pull gear lever into neutral wait for revs drop 1100rpm (or roll a cigarette) while U B waitin for the revs to drop so U can grab the next gear mack had a clutch brake and the idea to kill the revs between gears by hitting the clutch brake in neutral made for a faster gear change by slowing the cogs advance on a few years with a Maxidyne 5 or 6 speed cog box you could kill the revs by using the dynatard where you could pull the gear straight thru to the next cog this idea was great U did half the gearchanges compared to a green screemer & RR gear box twas the next best this to driving an Auto When the clutch brake aint working properly... thro the clutch to start off to pik up a gear is to drag the gear lever into the biggest badest cog 1st gear then select the gear U lookn for or engage the PTO then shift to neutral cya

about 1950 Bill had an idea to make a removerable gooseneck low loader to make life easier speaciily for transporting Steel drum rollers and blawknox & Barber Greene asphalt spreaders etc the only problem .... it 2 blokes a good hour to remover the gooseneck using screw jacks and load up it has been modified a few times and now we use the winch mounted behind the truck cab About 15 years ago we thought we should make a movie of the detach neck the only load we could find to load up was the ride on mower WotSezU? cya -
