Muck Boots 'n' Slickers - Life of a Livestock Hauler

No I’m just R&R taking it to Little Rock to get cleaned. Its not giving trouble customer just wants try and do preventative maintenance. This better not blow up in my face. I hate working on stuff that’s fine, cause usually it ain’t no more after I #### with it

 

10-4.
I think learning those systems, and doing maintenance like that, will be key to surviving with them as time goes on.

 

I've got the four core high-performance. Is there one any better. I haven't found one. your right elmer i just drop a gear ( or two) i'm not going to melt anything to get there 20 minutes earlier.. my 2ws runs a little cooler than my 6 nz both have same radiator.

 

I’d be curious to know if they are dimpled tube, and what size tubes. 5/8” dimpled tubes versus 1/2” makes a bit of difference.
The way it has been explained to me, the dimpled tubes cool better than the slick tube, BUT, if they don’t step up to 5/8” tubes when they dimple them you actually loose some cooling system volume, plus the slow down in coolant passing through the dimpled tubes, can create a system that still struggles to cool.

 

Well maybe someone on here knows what I need can point me in the right direction.

 

Some years back I was having trouble keeping that black truck cool. Pulled my dimpled 4 core from 4 states and took it to my Radiator man in judsonia. Second he seen it he said let’s not even unload it I can’t help you. He took his ol Case knife and picked at the fins and said see how they ain’t attached to those tubes right? She can’t disapate the heat. So I tell him it’s new or a couple years old and I always had trouble but it was getting worse. He says he sees that a lot outta the cheaper radiators. He ordered me a core outta Wisconsin I can’t help remember there name and it was pricey and we put it in my factory frame. From looks to performance was an absolute night and day difference. @Ruthless put me on some quality radiator stuff to outta Pa but I lost her contact too.


I’m not saying that is your issue but I have learned quality makes a difference

 

I feel ya! But I got the mfer out.

 

Both my radiators came from four state. I even looked at putting a Acert front on my 2WS so I can get the bigger water pump and flow tubes, but you're still running it through the thermostat housing that's the same so I didn't know if all that was gonna work better or not.

that is the absolute truth in almost everything.

 

Yeah, she closed up shop a couple years ago anyway.
