Where is everyone #5

I know how you feel @Tug Toy . Early 90’s I hauled a 80 foot bridge crane out of Milwaukee to Jackson Mississippi. Got down there on Friday afternoon and the riggers had just went home. I unhooked from the stretch trailer and went back to do a final check on things when I see a pile of rust on the fifth wheel. I sure thought that was odd till I looked under the trailer at the king pin. All busted out. I got very lucky also

 

Guess it's gonna be a good day.... black Ford pickup eased up beside me earlier, passenger rolled her window down and set those puppies free...

 

I've heard about things like that: I been running since 2005 I ain't seen a set of titties yet!





Though here in Newport RI I can't help but think back on the hundreds of times I straight piped thru here: thank god it was a tractor trailer not a motorcycle

 

You still got straights, don’t ya?

 

On the red truck; today I'm in the white one which is muffled.
I never felt like my red truck was all that loud, until I started driving this one. I do think I am convinced that I will put mufflers on that red truck. I can hear people on the telephone, I can have a conversation with a passenger, at the end of the week I don't have tinnitus lol

 

Been thinkin about mufflers myself. Guess I’m gettin old.
Problem I’ve got is I’m pretty sure a KW muffler will be right in the way of the PTO drive shaft. That’s why I asked you a while back about the ones you drive into the pipes.

The new pipes will be bigger diameter than these 5’s, I’m hoping that’ll tone it down.

 

Some guys have all the fun.

 

The cab style I have the mufflers are on the uprights, so there's no interference.

 

You could just set your truck up the same way....
Delete the undermount muffler run a y pipe, put mufflers with heat shields up the sides...?
