Thanks. Thought it was a way to get voltage into the cab. 

Started running lines into the cab. This electrical junction block bolts over the hole in the firewall with nothing on the back for an electrical connection. Why the hole  ?  

Thoughts and prayers for you. Wishing the best for you.

Thanks . Searched for days with out the P/N was getting nowhere. Ordered one from Anything Truck. Don know why the local Truck Pro could find it.

Sounds crazy . I bought a new PP -1 valve from Truck Pro came without the nut to mount to the dash. They said they have not  come with a nut in years and could  find not the P/N . If any one has one for sale I would like to buy one or tell me where I can get one.  7/8 -20 thread Thanks Ed.

Sharp. What was used for paint ?

With the addition of this you should have  everything  someone would want on a B model. 

I have been told by a numbers of good welders peening relives the stress.

Welcome. We like pictures.

I have a neighbor who was born deaf. He is in his late 20' s  farms for me and 500 other acres and works full time as a journeyman electrician . Good to see someone like this instead of being on some government program as so many who do not need help are.

The oil sample or analysis makes good sense. When I buy a used tractor,  truck, or backhoe I change the oil and send a sample to Blackstone Labs for analysis. It gives you a good idea on the condition of the engine. Unless you change the oil it is sometimes hard to get a good sample.

Just read an article in Land Line magazine maintenance Q&A section  about a father and son restoring 1982 Peterbilt with a Cummings 400 big cam. Their question was on oil and drain intervals. The truck was only to be used in parades and shows. They were advised with  C J-4  to change every six months with synthetic once a year due to oxidation and sludge. I wonder if you only put a few hundred miles on an engine with limited idle time is this necessary ? 

I bought a new Freightliner in 2003 the wires were  all tan with numbers on them . With out some information I never knew were anything went.

My  B 61 was wired similar. The one on the frame failed at one time I think. The one on the T.P. valve as near as I could tell  was for the brake lights. Which would be an easy fix. 

I think these are brake light switches.

Looks  great. Good choice on the epoxy primer.

Nice 420 W . Had one couple of years ago. Great little tractor but always had a small leak on the rock shaft.

Got the cab on the frame yesterday. Everything went great until . It was either lift the cab which was bolted or move the steering box. Chose the latter. When things are going too good there is usually  a reason. 

Welcome.

How about  adding an auxiliary  trans.

Enjoyed the pictures.

Thanks. I guess the  steel ones are the countersunk ones. My old ones were rusted bad and I can not find them. Must have thrown them away.
