This channel has a wide variety of mostly old, but not age specific. Trucks, equipment, working on stuff around the garage. Brockway's and Mack's is mostly what I concentrate on but not specifically that. Watch some videos, hit that subscribe button. Thank you.
great video, I always loved brockways over macks, that's why I thought mack bought them out and put them out of business, also love my diamond reos, dodges, gmc, Chevy, Ford ,s etc, keep up the great work sir
Rich, between each rocker box and head there is a threaded hole going into the intake passage. This must be plugged when installing a turbo. Also check that the oil return for the turbo is open and draining above the level in the pan. They used to call that a smoke kit when adding a turbo to the 220 and I believe it made it a 262 hp.
Looks like she had been hauling Precast for USI before you got her. Pretty sweet 260 Brockway and I like that tight triple frame. Looks like they moved from Hatfield to Whatley,MA. Definitely a sweet rig
It didn't necessarily mean wedge brake. The king pin pivoted in the axle instead of the spindle. So if it wore into anything, it would be the axle itself. Not the greatest idea. I have my brockway 258 video that shows it.
If they just added a turbo and juiced up the pump, it also would have to have two small pipe plugs screwed into the head near the mounting surface of the rocker covers(all three heads) Non aspirated engines(Cummins) didn't require them. (they used to put them in the little envelopes that came with the injector fuel line plugs when you got Cummins Recon heads). Hopes this helps you, Bill
what a moose. the big rubber/chicago wobblers really make the rig. sure hope to see one of these trucks in person some day! awesome collection of east coast gear man
Oh the Peterbilt 352 had a fixed shifter with a big rectangular hole in the floor, compared to the Freightliner FLA cabovers where the clutch linkage fell apart when the cab was tilted. The GMC and Chevy 6500-7500 gas cabovers had the same shifter design. So there’s far less play in the shifter linkage. But the 12v71 Detroit was a pig on fuel at 4mpg!
When I was a kid I lived in Allentown P.A , my friends and I would go to the fence at mack trucks and look at all the ne trucks. Lots of MR models I remember. Great channel. Thank you
I hauled many truck loads of block castings into Macks engine plant in Hagerstown, Md. when they were building those particular engines like you took out. They built America with trucks like that. You have a very interesting channel.
At my work had some idiot put 5 gallons of def in the fuel tank of a brand new truck completely ruined the fuel system and they have to pay to fix it cause warranty doesn't cover being a dumba$$
That is the same truck my Grandpa owned!😀 So glad to see it again! It was sold out of the family several years ago. Where can I get more information on this truck and auction details?
This is most likely my Dad's truck that he hauled our possessions to Spartanburg S.C. in 1968. It was here until it was sold a few years ago. BEN IS MY NEPHEW.
