Ah the new age of truck specing . Most of the Med Duty's are speced for box work and not much weight involved henc the transmission used as due to the driver base they have to pick from today . When you look at MOST grain trucks on the farms just about everyone is UNDER speced with GVW's under 26000 and this goes way back like this . BUT when you roll across the scales at the elevator your no less the 10000 over loaded . Even if you speced your truck out with a 12000 ft axle and a 23000 rear axle most times you will be a grand or two over . Yea i know i am a great one to talk being over after all those years hauling coal and making the trailer look like a Dairy Queen cone . Atleast you have air brakes that is a PLUS i personally despise Juice brakes . This past fall i helped a buddy with corn hauling for a couple days and first load with his 1700 I H S model first thing i noticed was his brakes needed adjusted and like everyone i have even worked on with Juice brakes the adjuster were FROZEN and will require pulling all the wheels and drums to get in there to free them up and with luck he may be able to get a couple times of adjustment before they freeze up again.

I have also restored and shown model F's, E 27N's, Field Marshall Series 2, David Brown Cropmasters and the old rey Fergeson T 20. At one time I had seven restored examples which were shown and used in ploughing matches. As most restorers, I have a number of war stories I can relate on a range of topics that may help other like minded and interested people. Perhaps my first p
