Freightrain Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Gold anodized to keep from rusting. Looks great!! I'm so unhappy with the way my wheels turned out when I did them. Just 5? yrs and they look like chit. Rusty and ugly. I should have just painted them with a brush. 1 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

mowerman Posted 19 hours ago Author Share Posted 19 hours ago You know I trained on one just like that way back in 1976 and I find it very very hard to tell people. It’s an antique back in those days those things with the king of the highway in the north east. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/96/#findComment-585476 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted 6 hours ago Author Share Posted 6 hours ago Paul when I was putting those last two wheels together and putting in the flaps, I was thinking to myself the last time I did this I was only 17. 52 years ago it was a little bit easier back then I had a little bit of trouble trying to get the lock rings back on since I did not have a rim stand. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/96/#findComment-585491 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted 6 hours ago Author Share Posted 6 hours ago And yes, I took your advice and put the brake adjuster in the vice. I removed the Zirk fitting and shot a bunch of penetrating oil in there and spun it completely around. Thanks for that. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/96/#findComment-585492 Share on other sites More sharing options...
