Cool rig to do that sort of job. As for dancing on that "horizontal ladder" during work it seems to me needed to be slightly used to some knee wobble

That sucks.

Pretty interesting setup. Would be nice to see "in work" pictures either. At least as long as we all like to

I agree a new stuff is the best choice in the most cases (not in all nowadays though) but it seems to me people is worried too much on tyre's age. Thinking deeper this way of things is too attractive to tyre producers so that tendence might be spread by them either. Looking to the matter of facts a tyre might loose its strenght due to excessive loads/hits or corrosion/decay of wires inside. For loads we usually can't know a history but that's more to drives, not steers. As for cord damages they could be resulted by water access. So if we don't see any cracks up to cord there's no risk to it. Sure that all is in theory.

I would say pink dump truck is close to be better that the goat on the hill. The worm is awesome though. Oh, no, I want to say nasty. Thank you for posting guys!

I double the post above, we all like pictures. Welcome on board!

These ones left factory between 1942 and 45. Still hold pressure well. I'm not in much trust to the fronts to drive down the road though so think about a swap to 22.5 radials.

Very nice to learn that there are persons in our world like those Aussies. Hats off.

I can't stop myself to surprize how some of easy looking deals become just a disaster after a couple of smart a$$es put their hands on a subject. Too sorry to hear. Mack NO rears are standard Mack heavy rears, something like 68000. At least heavier than on NR (44000-?) They're Camelbacks with 9.02 diffs. The front axle together with tranny/transfer case were used later on heavy 6x6 B model, if the memory serves B83SX. The original engine is EY707 wich is a common 707 with military reworked oil pan (and the pump?) and updraft carb. So you can put all that together having the rest from those fast working guys and build a real truck. At least if you have enough to brush and the work worth it. As for the "Moscow inventory" the only gooddies of Mack NO I have is a pair of diff mounting gaskets. They're brand new though and i'll send them to you as far as you need. Or just to cheer you up

Paul, thank you for clearing me up and advices. Hope after multi draining-refilling I will be able to check the final condition. Just need a time to put my hands on them. Actually they're fitted onto the frame together with front fender brackets. I don't want to fit the last ones yet since they limit access to the engine area. So shocks is a future affair.

The paintwork is very nice! And the interesting story.

The LTL is awesome! Do you mean you're not going to go to Alice Springs with it? You don't noted on what side of the globe you are. The steering wheel of LTL could be seen on the pictures though. That's pretty interesting. Any facts on how to take them apart? Turn off the notched nut? Or there's nothing to inspect inside so to paint them solid?

Welcome To the paradise city Where the grass is green And Macks are pretty!!

Looks nice and is in a good condition from what you've wrote about. Welcome to the forum! Vlad

Those pics of how the road twisted with some snow (or ice?) on makes feeling "Brrr...". And the very first shot gives just a cry - the car is in front of you but you're in the left lane!! The next one looks Ok though From seeing the pictures I suppose you drove calm enough having moments to apply the camera. Almost every shot is nice enough for a screen wallpaper

Very impressive to see. We have absolutely nothing like that overhere. What do those houses have as in the bottom? Some strong steel beam structure? The one you moved had the gates of the kind of a garage. Wasn't there anything interesting inside of the previous owner forgot about?

Cool! Seems like a lot of job is done in it. Is the cab mated together with bunk on rails with air support?

Nice looking MH. Wish you to end the deal up soon. As for marker lights I bought a set from Truck Lite for about the same cost but they weren't LED's.

I wouldn't miss a chance to have such H no matter what the steering side is.

Both look very nice down the road

The fingers are crossed. Out East??

Sad story.

Mike, thank you for sharing. Hope the sleepers were not going to Mexico.

Ughhh... I'll let you know when it's fail. Right at the moment the main fact that cheers me up is indefiniteness of the time when that truck will be on the road.

I think it was offered somewhere else before. At least I saw that picture. Vlad
