It was a great time! Nice to meet you Brian. We have a good local group here! Hopefully, next time I'll be able to bring the truck!

Thanks Mike! It wasn't messed up until we replaced the tie rod ends. We got it close so we could get the wheels on it and line it up. We'll dial it in in the days to come.

We have gotten the front end back together, and the wheels are back on! After a front end alignment, it's on to the drive train and rear end…. :driver:

No. We took them off, cleaned them up, replaced all the bushings and checked for any defects. Then we put them back on.

We went with direct replacement with what was there, and what reflects in the TM. It has the roller bearings in the bottom.

Welcome from just up the road!

Looks like you are going to have an adventure in restoration as well! I'll be keeping an eye on your progress as we work on ours! Best of luck! :beer:

Here are some more pictures as we make some headway.

I got my old starter switched out for a shiny new one. Then I got the 2nd axle, right side wheel seals fixed again.... Back on the road!

That's the one! I just got it back to roadworthy status. Let me know when you're around and we'll get something arranged. I'm sure I'll be out working on one of the trucks this weekend, if nothing else. Stop on by.

It looks like I may make it this time! If nothing else goes wrong, the truck should be in attendance!

Cargo, shmargo! That would be one epic truck!!!

I have sent emails to the representatives listed in the Bills, but I don't think we'll see anyone who is really concerned until after the hearings on the 28th. The following is from an email I received from correspondence with the ATHS. It is a forwarded letter from Rep. Nancy Jacobs to her...

From reading the bills, and speaking to a few people in other organizations, here's what I have surmised: You have two House Bills: HB550 which covers Title 13-936, and limits the vehicles as less than 10,000 lbs, and does not include motor homes and truck tractors. HB668: Which adds Title...

I pulled my starter in an attempt to fix the solenoid. After failing in my attempt, I took it to the local electronic shop. They told me that the solenoid was shot. Subsequently, I am the owner of a shiny new Delco starter, at a fairly decent price. Now, if it would just warm up enough that I...

Compared to the current Historic registration fee of $51 a year, it sucks! Personally, I'm more concerned about the fact that I'll have to get heavy truck insurance instead of historic insurance. There's an increase of 600%….

I wish I was in a position to get out of Maryland. I have a couple of factors working against me, but there will come a day…. fat lady sings

Here you go!

Also if you read further into the bill, they want to remove the occasional transportation clause. This would then would limit your use of ANY historic vehicle to parades and events only. This is going to be a change that is reaches FAR into our hobby, as well as any other historic vehicle hobby...

I have sent emails to the heads of the Maryland chapters of the ATHS. This is something that we need to get to fighting, post haste! If these thieves in the legislature think they can make a buck to give to the low rents, we are in for an uphill fight! aua I also sent email to the MVPA. I am...
