Stack height help for a 389

That seems strange , I'll have to check mine next time I'm in truck , tomorrow

 

My old stacks(factory) definitely both got hot , I melted the slide bushings out on both sides

 

Mine are the same height but 7”.

 

Stacks not more than 13 foot 5 inches. Most all reefers are a shade under 13.6, particularly if they are loaded and manage to compress the suspension a little bit. I remember a set of bridges just south of Elmira Horseheads NY not too far north of the PA line. This one set of bridges is probably the most oppressive I have ever seen gently rolling under there and hear that nice soft scrraaapppeee.... whistling to the grave yard. Antennas talking becuse they are measured out at 13.5 jingle jingle jingle. Watch that sleeper air ####, scrape! then the exahust, you better be at 13.5 and grow a pair....

I actually lost to a bridge just once in my life time there was a railroad bridge made of concrete arch south of Carlise PA off I think old 30. (There is 30 and there is OLD 30... you do not want Old Thirty because you are going back in time and that road is sooo annoying. It is probably the one place anywhere in the US Eawst coast where I am subject to experiencing road rage because it's THAT tight.

If you slap stacks on there at 13.4 you are doing even better. Your reefer engine and it's stuff is probably laser installed at the eryt op.

Anyway, I left marks on that old railroad bridge after trying to gently cuddle the big rig up against the middle of the arch way. I also punched a hole in the fiberglass above the sleeper. The company will have a nice exhibit.

But the coffee. Sheetz. Food everywhere. Fresh cooked food too. And the beer oh wait...

 

I like that basic Pete. It looks really workman like. Im not trying to be weird or anything but that pete is looking weawwy good to my eye.

What building is that? behind?

 

Look crane parts! Nice!

 

That building is at USC(University of So.Cal.). Thanks for the compliment. I have always like just the plain stock look on “Any” piece of machinery. Just keep it clean is my motto. And yes, it’s part of a tower crane. I haul lots of those.

 

I've loaded alot of those. The crane company I worked for used to stack alot of towers. We had mobile cranes up to 900t. I ran a 120 and would load the trucks.
