    I just mentioned, but linkage was still on the end of the brake handle. Let’s get it straight and you could see where it was mounted. If that will help you spread the gossip lol

    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
  14. mowerman
    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

    Yes, I checked that out. I didn’t even notice that. Till roadway mentioned that.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
