    Same for me,skin cancers on my left arm, and left ear almost deaf. terry
  6. With that set up a 4:17 would be ideal, i once had a DM dump with a 285 engine, 12 spd od mack with 4:17’s and 22.5 tires, engine would turn 2300, and bury the 80 MPH speedometer. It was quite the sleeper! Terry
  7. If you had oil in the harness , did you replace it? terry
  8. Looks like you found the problem. Terry
  9. Bet thats a gas guzzler! terry
  10. Didn't the cover have the excentric in it, and that little pump gizmo would move back and forth to pump the oil? terry

  12. Not to change the subject, but all of a sudden I’m getting ads at the top of my smartphone whenever i click on a topic here, anyone else getting these? terry
  13. Same thing for me Geoff, learned driving dump trucks in the service, 67,68,69, got my first dump truck about “72” got a letter from the state of iowa when cdl’s were starting, that i could self certify the driving, but i think i had to do a written test. Terry
  14. I think the roof was supposed to be beefed up some way for them roof mounted units, but alot of times it never got done. terry
  15. Looks like someone started to redo the white one. terry
  16. That’s probably a x107 six speed, auxiliary goes in direct and just shift the five speed, reverse is on the auxiliary stick, a bullet proof transmission. Terry
  17. Just a slight leak will keep it from building air.
  18. Once had a 237 engine when you backed out of it sounded like bongo drums out the exhaust, exhaust seat was loose, you could tell be the carbon around the seat, ran a long time like that. But it could be one of those things that could let go at anytime. terry
  19. I ran a single disc organic clutch behind a 237 for years, never had a problem, but i was the only driver. terry
  20. Looks just like the old ones, there was a fruehauff plant here in omaha, but it closed years ago. Terry
  21. Don’t see those Fruehauff bathtub trailers much anymore! Terry
  22. I think them three holes on the side were for handbrake bracket. terry
  23. Can you put a oversized pin, and weld on the shift ball and round it down and smooth it, i have done that in the past. Terry.
  24. Definitely alot easier to get, and probably alot cheaper! terry
