I did it! I saved Little Deck! Parked for 16 years due to a blow transmission this 1994 Peterbilt Cabover was all but forgotten and destined to go to a scrap yard. I saved it so it can live again.

I love your channel. I drove new 362’s from 1986 up until 1998. We had the double bunks with 425 HP E model Cats and 13 speeds. I guess I am spoiled because I always seen them in there new glory. At 300,000 to 350,000 they were traded off for new ones. We ran dual exhaust and polished tanks with aluminum wheels with air ride on them as well as our 48’ Dorsey refers we pulled with them. When the company owner retired he offered us the trucks but almost all of us passed on owning one. That was a sad day we had 39 of the 362’s when we shut down and my oldest son was a senior in high school getting ready for collage. I would love to see one of our old 362’s today hooked to a grain trailer somewhere…

Mike I think the name "Stumpy" fits perfectly just like the Walter Brennen character from the old John Wayne movies, He was old and mean and would give you both barrels of his 12Ga. but he was a loyal friend that could always be relied one. Good Old "Stumpy"! a friend worth having.

Damn Mike, grab a cup of coffee or eat a candy bar.... your as hyper as a two year old. Nice going so far.. I like the new truck and far as square versus round lights, fix it on the bumper parts to square down there too. Horns shouldn't matter but snap the covers off and put the square tips on it .... the horn tips, change them to square. But thinking every one of the new rigs are round aren't they??? Horse round things on the lawn, I was mean and its cause I am having a round things in my yard day... your excited and happy and then I piss on the steer tires. I am really happy that you saved it and its not a bad looking Pete. I happen to be a conventional guy who is hung out to dry on Kenworths. When I drive a cab over, the front right tire or right front steer tire is in the ditch and I think I am over the yellow line. About one or two signs on the city streets and I get out where I belong with my knee cap feeling like its on the yellow line and its just right. I heard low and slow, its got micro's on the jake brake so how come you haven't learned to jake shift and leave that clutch pedal alone?? Your hang up right like my hang up. Teach momma to drive Stubby and she will be all smiles especially if its got a killer sound system in it and those things that keep us cool or warm depending on the temp outside.

I like Stubby, he's cool. Glad to hear he has an engine. Can't wait to see him cleaned up and if his engine starts. Fingers crossed the transmission can be fixed without too much expense and hard work. Your list of parts is ever growing. Make a huge list for each of your cabovers and go hunting for what you need. Perhaps start with what you need to get each one running, driving and road legal, then hunt down the missing detailing parts. 5 windscreens, well you need 1 for Low n Slow and we don't yet know if Stubby may need 1. So that's maybe 2 you need plus a spare each. Great plan for Kenny to tow a low bed trailer, that would be awesome. Maybe try to get him running soon.

A 15spd you flip the button from deep reduction to low in 3rd loaded or 4th empty, flip the button let off the throttle if it sticks dip the clutch, the truck I drive the jake on low it burps it enough DR shifts to low then carry on through the gears. I've been driving a 15spd nearly 6 years and I learned the tricks of a 15spd 3 months ago. Damn I wish I knew this years ago I've always driven 13s I learned on them.

in my area 15spds are common for steel-hauling and at least with the pre-2000 Fuller transmissions, you drive them like a 12-speed if you're using DR: So with DR selected, 1,2,3,4,5, then flip switch back, then 4, 5, Range up, 6,7,8,9,10.
