Glad nobody got hurt. We have a trailer going to Pleasant Hill Saturday if you want a free ride for your spare that far, just let us know. You could bring your bed down and trade for a tan one if you like, no charge and I will provide the tractor... 8) Glen
I am not sure 2500 is conservative, but every truck owner has his own idea of how hard they should run. I feel guilty when mine hit 2200. We have a few heated threads about Multi-fuels and rpm. Each of us has to decide what the pocket book can afford, I guess.
At any rate, I would be glad to...
That's two of us, you just have to love a money back guarantee.... I probably owe you mileage though. 8) I will do something to make it right down the road. Thanks!
I boxed up one 939 series hardtop and am not doing another. It is not worth the hassle, they are too easy to just sell out of the yard. What flat dash plate do you speak of?
We have all four 915s running now, what an awesome truck! They pull our 70 ton baler around like nothing else in the fleet.... maybe not as fast.... Sorry, no parts trucks yet. There was some scuttle about pulling an engine out of one, if that happens, I will definitely PM you Ferro.
This thread and all of the high speed thoughts got me to wondering, so I grabbed the handy gps and hit the Interstate. My 68 hits the governor at 2700 according to my tach. 1100 Michelins with 70 pounds of air, 63.2 mph. That's it, flat out, screaming for relief, back to 2,000 rpm for me and my...

Changed out three fuel filters on my 68, they were beyond nasty. I suspect some of the fuel I have been burning out of the salvage trucks is less than good, probably should not be using it at all, but the price is free.....
Come on over, we have a spare bedroom and if you can get along with white German Shepherds and a 19 year old that knows everything... we could always use a story or two from down under. It was a busy day, nice to see the Dave and Dave show arrive, I always enjoy those guys!
We have 61,000...
Control box, power steering pulley no problem. Out of hardtops now, I crated one and will not be doing that again. They are not easily packaged, odd sized and somewhat fragile.
