    As far as the pressure washing of the international goes, very satisfying.
    As far as the wheels on your Dodge Ram goes, I am a big fan of the classic look of normal size wheels and meatier tires. I’ve never been a fan of the big wheels and low profile tires.

    Look on left front side of the motor there is a plate with the CPL
    number for that engine ( certified parts list ) look it up!
    Leave the side wings on, keeps the back of the cab clean.
    855 series engine..probably a 350.
    290 has no inner cooler
    350 does have intake inner cooler.
    Btw I'm 855 certified, ask if you get

But could have used a little more room in the things, it's not like the condos on the road today. Running with a trainer was a little tight. But not to bad when I got my own tractor.

      Change in regulations. Before there were restrictions on the overall lengths of a semis. When they were changed to not include the tractor, makers went with the more conventional design which provided better comfort to the drivers on long hauls, and easier to maintenance since the engine didn't sit under the cab.

    Bruce thing as you call it on top of the cab is an air deflector it saves you diesel and you will get a better ride if its windy .but it's up to you it's your truck ,it looks nice without the air kit but with it on they look awesome.its got lovely interior I personally like push button leather interior but yours looks just as nice ,what would set it off is lots of new chrome on the tanks ,on the chassis, and a nice set of polished durabright alloy wheels.

    That COE brings back some memories, the second truck I was assigned to as a professional driver was that exact that model. the one I drove was a COE International with a big cam 400 Cummins with a 13 speed transmission. The interior of this truck looks identical to the one I drove, same color and style on the inside but, the one I drove was painted all white. That truck had balls for days on end.

    The top is called a fairing. It improves airflow if you are hauling a dry van or refrigerator trailer. The extensions should be left on the truck for the same reason, but the fairing needs to be removed and/or replaced because of the damage.

  • @seanoleary1979
    @seanoleary1979 4 роки тому

    ...and leave the side fairings on. They help bridge/close the gap between the tractor and the trailer which helps to improve fuel mileage.You can leave the top one off - guys (0wner operators who own their own custom reefer trailers too) take 'em off if they're pulling reefers to help cool down the condenser, and if you're pulling a tanker, it is always yanked off.

    If you’re going for a “hot rod” truck, the fairings on the roof and back of bunk gotta go.
    Cheap way to go is find a frame cutoff at the wreckers and add about 2 ft of frame at the same time.
    Take the spacer blocks( or shorter spring shackles) out of the front axle. And you got a stanced badass cabinover.
    And LOSE THE MUFFLERS!
    those old mechanical Cummins sound evil through straight pipes.
    And just paint the frame.
    Leave the age (coolness)on the cab.
    Either way,gonna be a cool old binder.

  • @jamesr2046
    @jamesr2046 4 роки тому +1

    For leaving the air dam on or leaving it off, it depends on what you are pulling. They are on for aerodynamics to the trailer. (As much as a cab over is aerodynamic.)
    If you are using it as a farm tractor, just leave it off.
    Don't forget that the air tanks need to be drained daily to keep the water out of the airlines. Older air compressors draw more water than the new ones.
