  13. There’s been many times, I just got out and put on a couple of singles chains. On the drive axle and felt a lot more comfortable to continue. Hot dogs with long boxers would blow my doors off go for it, bud. lol bob
  14. Now I have to pull out Mack manual and see if I can find it now it’s been burning hot past couple days haven’t done anything
  15. well, thanks for that according to the Mack manual I have seen from double clutching weasel I think that’s where I saw it. It was supposed to mean 6 six wheel truck, which doesn’t make too much sense to me because that’s what they’re calling. A twin drive or twin axle…. Bob
  16. Sorry I can’t help you much except I used to work at a gulf gas station back in 75-76 always has the same guy delivering our gasoline he was very sociable. I do remember the colors well but it was a LN 8000 Ford twin axle but that’s all I got…. Very interested stories thanks for that… I’ve been around big rigs since 1960 my uncle had a fleet of Brockways. Bob
  17. If I were you, I would call watts B model store good luck … bob
  18. It happens there was a very knowledgeable guy on here a while back that told me my truck was originally a single axle since it has an S in the serial number not all of us know it all, but I guess some people are pretty sure about something enough to argue a point that is not true
  19. Tried to buy a belt about six months ago. That was absolutely nothing I could find anywhere made here . Boot world wanted 50 bucks for Chinese belt …. I’m not paying that found one in kohls for half that made in Spain bob
  20. But then I got everything I want house payment around 800 bucks instead of 3,000 plus like some people have
  21. Matt My wife hates mine … but I don’t blame her for that… because her biggest complaint is because you have that thing we can’t live in a regular neighborhood like everyone else gets to do lol bob
  22. So in other words, they sold us down the river years ago and now there’s no way of paddling back ha ha pretty much the size of it. I’m glad I’m old. Next generation can worry about it…. Bob
  23. Yes I mentioned that couple of weeks ago .. bean counters hard to find real leaders my wife’s company is a perfect example… the right hand doesn’t know what the left is doing, and if you have a legitimate complaint or suggestion, nobody wants to hear it, and it never gets to the top … bob
  24. Heh almost missed this… excellent hopefully you don’t find yourself loosing interest at your age as I did…. It takes alotta patience and concentration I didn’t realize till I started working on mine or tryed to get it finished… I realized u had a lot more to offer as a teenager.. devotion to these models seems to have slipped away with time best of luck with that… also I’ve never seen the freightliner but I think I put together the peterbilt conventional and cab over long time ago bob
