    That’s kind of weird do you haven’t got an answer yet maybe you want to PM Barry. He could probably tell you. I certainly can’t help you much way out here. Don’t have a clue personally I guess it’s a matter of monkey see monkey do these days OK? Well everybody’s using buds now I might as well order them …

    Must’ve missed something didn’t catch the trooper story that sucks. I think we just lost a couple of highway patrolman here recently seems ever since black lives. Matters came about law enforcement has lost considerable respect from lots of people just more baloney and a country headed for a hell. Pretty cool to have the copter flyover thanks for that.. bob

    And yes, they even look good. If you have all brand new Lugnuts and keepers or at least had brush them with the gray paint.

    I was considering chroming my hubcaps like Matt did, but I’m probably gonna paint them gray along with the rims I was fixing on doing the spokes green, but up in the air with that also, I might paint the spokes, black and the rims gray not sure what I’m going to do yet since that’s the way most factory trucks came back in those days

    Ha ha Amazon it’s amazing what they carry or what they can get. I even went on there and found various shapes and sizes and colors for toggle switch extensions.

    Well, I hate to say this Paul, but I really think he moved onto greener pastures married that chick from Israel and I think something happened to him over there since the country is always fighting with somebody bob
  22. mowerman
    Excellent thanks for that. I haven’t decided what I’m gonna do yet since I’m not a big fan of chrome depending on what it is, I might just paint everything including the mirrors and brackets as I mentioned the stock Mack hubcaps are probably out of the question. It’s nice to know I could use them if I wanted to and 10 four on the air start and spokes excellent combination

    Well, I pull loaded down triple trailers across 80 top out at 66 miles an hour I would be pissing myself to be able to pass anybody flat ground or hill… my personal opinion on jacking up your engine is like mentioned very old and hard to get parts for I wouldn’t do it, but each his own If you really need more power, I would go for a 600cummins Bob
