We haven't seen any updates for your dump truck lately. Think you said it would be on a Ford forum but not being an internet guru I can't find it. Can you direct me? Thanks.

Chris, I got up to page 11 on the Ford forum, will look at more later. I remember reading that one of the rods is bad. I was wondering if anyone made insert connecting rods.

Are you getting as much rain as my friends in Ohio?

Keep up the good work!

John,

Folks,

Yes 8 inches of rain on Friday/ Saturday last weekend did not help our local tractor show.

Currently I have spent two half days discing and culti-packing ruts from the cars and trucks getting stuck in the yard.

Yes I warned you about the Ford Barn thread on the 32 triple D. Lengthy! Good reading if you cant sleep!

I plan to go with replaceable bearing inserts instead of the Babbitt poured bearings.

Got to get on that truck engine work too.

Regards,

Chris
