for a hand throttle id use something like this 20FT BUYERS HEAVY DUTY VERNIER LOCKING THROTTLE CABLE VCGTX20 TRUCK EQUIPMENT | eBay
for a foot pedal throttle id probably just hit the junk yard and try to find somthing that i thought looked like i could make work a little grinder welding work spay paint done...lolspsauerland and Brettj3876 Thank this. -
Guy said we'd be pushing 45-50psi with 171702. Puff limiter is on it too and he said it still has a lot more rack adjustment. -
Quite a few farm tractors run cable throttles on a push/pull setup. I'm not sure if you could get the correct tension or smoothness on the pedal from a cable setup.
Linkage would be the best bet. If you wander a junkyard you should pick up enough ideas of how to do it.Dino soar and Brettj3876 Thank this. -

Hoping she puts down 625+ at the wheels at antrim. Stock 550E w no mods im already pulling away on the few we worked pulling sand. For 200$ im gonna maybe get 1.45ar
Or the pump guy might have my dad convinced to build a set of twins but thats on back burner. 1500-1850 is where i run it. Don't lug it below 1475-1500. -
Idk have a clue on HH rates but we're 4.00+mi on our outbound to bayonne. 700$ on 172mi. Like yesterday i picked up a load of castings after my Bayonne load. 10 pallets 240mi for 800. Kicked it off same day.
Hope media keeps hyping corona bc i set the old man up with a costco load 800 on 127mi and reload back up to Binghamton for 750.
We're looking to put 2-3 more trucks on and 6-8 more wagons. I've been handling pretty much everything from booking loads to chasing after $$$. Slowly getting my little brother involved.
