What extreme do you go to for parts??? (hooks)
Walking through a yard the other day and something told me to look up. I normally wouldn't go to this extreme, but the yard owner and and a yard guy kept an eye on me. Been on there so long i snapped the bolts getting them off. Unfortunately they both curl the same way as a couple others i have. Good thing i am tall and not always so bright.......

It's living dangerously Eric that lets you know your alive....but health and safety deadens the senses and turns everyone into wimps.
I'm gonna start calling you Captain Hook

We all do stuff others think is dumb, and sometimes it is, but it does make for a good story later. Heck I'd have done it.

Re: What extreme do you go to for parts??? (hooks)
Nice work Eric. I look high and low for parts, but I don't think it has been quite that high.
Sorry I never got back to you about the locking hubs, I should have emailed you earlier. They where gone by the time I called the guy back, but I will keep my eye out for others. |

Re: What extreme do you go to for parts??? (hooks)
Deadhead, they are correct for 60-68 truck front hooks.
Leroy, i have found others on busses in the past, but not very often. Nigel, captain hook... i like that. Blacksheep, you are 100% correct. Brain, i figured the hubs were gone, but thanks for trying. Rob, i am 6'6".( you probably remember that) I was teetering on a motorcycle frame trying to pull a 24" breaker bar towards me will the bus was moving slightly everytime i pulled. I had thoughts....... Strange winter, we just got a little snow recently.
