  1. I have some old truck wheel cylinders i found years ago in the trash old company I worked for I took them home thinking they would probably come in handy sometime. I will post photos soon. It’s snowing out now here I don’t want to go outside.Bob
  2. But then you got so much labor into that thing now I guess you might as well just keep fixing it bob
  3. Yes, I noticed that really don’t have proper clothing either and yes Joey I was thinking the same thing throw in the towel and get yourself something else lol … Bob
  4. I quit messing with old Chevys years ago on account of the same reason outpriced themselves …. They took all the excitement out of it.. glad my Mack doesn’t really need a whole lot except little stuff mainly just alotta work that doesn’t cost anything
  5. No man that’s what I was far but thanks for asking not surprising I don’t think it means what it looks like Bob
  6. That’s amazing. This guys don’t even really have anything to work with…. Bob
  7. Not sure what you did but it looks real good now bravo brother!!!!!!
  8. You can even keep it in manual mode and shift up and down manually with a switch
  9. Haha got to agree that’s about the only thing is irritating is coming to a rolling stop have to wait for transmission to decide what it wants to do but all our trucks have up and down switches you can decide what you want most of the time
  10. I haven’t adjusted a break in 33 years jobs usually have work shop with mechanics that do i check brake shoes on Congers before I picked them up. I’m surprised never noticed that. Oooooooooooo you mean big old wierd fat man stuck on the past… Bob
  11. Well, never mind. Clearly, I don’t know what a 9/16 wrench would do either
  12. Clearly, they don’t need the money, Joey , so I’m sure they had a coddled upbringing and I am sure a dock work is not going to happen lol Bob
  13. Like, why would I carry a 9/16 wrench? Oh I don’t know the scale might be able to tell you ha ha.
  14. That’s one of my complaints about them Bubba guys like me earned them young punks just get to jump right in one right off the bat doesn’t seem fair…. Bob
  15. Yeah they squashed junior’s . Internet Caper in a hurry. Now I noticed the old man’s juicy story is slowly fading away as well. Bob
  16. Yes I am with you. I haven’t slept on my truck. In 32 years. The one thing I did like about it when you’re done you’re done you don’t have to drive anywhere just crawl in the back. Ha ha.
  17. Ha ha I can appreciate that although I didn’t think I was going to like the automatic …. Now I think it’s the best thing since sliced bread but I did shift trucks for around 44 years. Bob
  18. I was trying to weld a piece of pipe to a chunk of angle iron. For some reason the weld wasn’t sticking to the pipe only the angle iron.
  19. No, I just have to put it all the together seems a getting just a bit better at following the bead and keeping it going
  20. My Montgomery ward actually drops to 20 amps on DC side
  21. Thanks for that. I think that’s what Matt was trying to explain when he was fixing his fenders. I did learn right off the bat. I was using too much heat … Bob
  22. Plus, I didn’t even know they were around that long. There’s a dealer here in Reno. They do a lot of advertising.
  23. Cool posts guys I ran out of likes ha ha I just spotted it. This thing looks pretty damn good for his age.
  24. I’ll be redoing the entire real section of my go kart I’m trying to get good enough to attempt welding most of it … bigger engine different axle possibly band or disc brakes
