    Just acquired this rig and will be putting her into service shortly as I rebuild the cabover, thought some might like seeing it:

    Why do I say moving backwards in technology?

    444XT NT88 mechanical Cummins and a set of boxes... Spicer PSO140-6A main box and an APO1000-4C auxiliary (6x4) on 4.44 rears.

    Nothing quite as fun as swinging a set of sticks.

    Nice looking setup. The bonus is you'll never have to worry about anyone stealing it because no one remembers how to shift twin boxes anymore.
