yes swish

i think you are correct, i do remember Atkinson having a tri but on the cover of the first volume of the bulldog bulltion there was a flintstone with a drilling rig on the back, tri drive or at least 3 axles on the back, i take it was a camel back then a single axles after the camel back.


But just like it has been said be fore ButEyeDoSt&2BCorrected!

Have been looking in Rob Laurents book and cant find a tri drive Mack. I think if there was one ex factory he would have got it in there.
He does have a photo of a 5 axle Leader page 105 but it has a lazy axle on the back.

OK Monty
hows a bout scanin the Bulldog bulletin
n we can declare it as xhinit 'A' u're Honour

Well done fellas, what year is that cutting from ?

1973 ???

Well Swishy should be able to tell us.

Swish,

Cant scan it co i dont got it. have seen this Bulldog Bulletin on eaby and it sold for more than $200, the cover was blue, and the flintsone was blue, and i think that the year was 1968 or late 67, and was a copy from the 1st volume of the bulldog Bulletin.

Swish, can you explain for us more simple folk how the entire back half was put to geather please, all i got was it had two power dividers and one power divider lock out on the front, dont get how the physical mounting of the diffs worked.
