    Now I’m confused all our work trucks I 1100-22-5 but they appear to me to be a lot taller than my tires. Maybe just an optical illusion at any rate I’m getting ready to open the wallet wide ha ha hopefully not too wide.bob

    OK, let me get this straight at 22-5 is the same outside diameter as a 1020 correct??? I wasn’t really looking for a taller rubber, but I thought they were bigger

    Personally, I’m going to look into some used takeoffs container chassis use a lot of them. You might be able to find a full set of good used tires with the rims used. I’m thinking of doing the same thing. Also, I noticed a lot of guys nowadays are just changing the front rims to tubeless since the fronts have the lock ring sticking out which is the dangerous set , just another couple of ideas. I’m going to be looking for tires myself here pretty quick. I also have 20 inch tube type split rims plus as . geoff says taller, rubber means more top end….. good luck … bob

    More progress a little bit later unfortunately more preparation ha ha I’ve got a new caper in mind. Let you know what I come up with a little later. I’m starting to think I’m going to put the underneath reinforcement backing in first which will give me a nice foundation to start the outside …bob

    I thought I saw that truck at Watts truck show. I think it was just one that looked a lot like it certainly same condition. Couple years ago… certainly not hard to look at.. bob

    I think you put this in a wrong area, but I am the same way the highways around here and nothing but drag strips. They’re no fun at all…. with triple trailers a lot of times on better off on straight road if I get swingers, but I have had them on back roads to get around accidents And yes, just like you said you’re usually the only one out there nobody behind you makes it nice ,, without some pushy jackass all over you trying to get around as quick as they can first chance they get. Happy Saturday.

    Glass shop can cut anything as long as it’s straight. I bought two of them in the San Fernando Valley California years and years ago for a F model . The guy actually had two of them already cut in stock…. Glass shop. Bob

    Well, it went from automatic transmissions to three stick transmissions. I am not sure what the third one was for on that thing I know the older macks had the married box with a two speed browning behind it for top end … bob

    Speaking of throwing a bone I wound up with a four day weekend due to internal issues. I am taking care of right now. OK I’m really changing the subject. Where is Joey when you need him ha ha.
  19. mowerman
    excellent once in a while in life, you get thrown a bone doesn’t happen very often. Yes I was practicing on my dad‘s cars. He got rid of the Cadillac and bought the LTD through the process, but I actually went to driving school to make sure I had everything right…. bob

    It looks like it takes all the manly out of it. You know I’ve been out on the road since 1972 and I can honestly say I have only seen one girl in my life driving a Mack and that was in a video a few months ago.

    I think the pick up was a 64 was a four-wheel-drive with a snowplow… bob

    Didn’t realize I put this in the wrong section ha ha oh well somebody might see it
  23. mowerman
    Oh, I would’ve thought those things would’ve moved real quick in that area. I would have ran over and grab one of them if they were closer , you could easily get your money back by selling one component. I had an original Mack key years ago my five year old boy at that time took it out and lost it somewhere. I’m still pissed about that. That was almost 35 years ago bob

    Yeah baby back at you bud. This is the only weekend my wife will fix me corn beef cabbage. I could eat it almost every night ha ha.. bob
