A newer flex pipe comes off the turbo. i don't know what the mounts are like. I did not see the studs in previous breaks. This time the far back stud on #6 broke and the other one broke on #3. The pyro is right before the turbo. The previous owner complained of broken studs too and after talking to my son again I found out the previous owner bought it from a farmer with 250,000 miles on the clock. Farmer bought it as a new glider (Freightliner) in 1994. I have an inkling the engine was overhauled before it was dropped into the frame. I don't know when the next owner bought it from the farmer but it did sit still a lot since it only had 390,000 miles on the clock when my son bought it a year and a half ago, giving me an inkling the manifold might be stuck. It will be checked out this afternoon. The only reason we tack welded it was to hold it in the exact position it was in the truck just in case it wanted to twist in handling. Maybe our concerns weren't justified if it is indeed stuck. Son called the dealer he got the studs from and they are from cat. Will keep you posted. Thanks again for the suggestions.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
