[roadranger]

WOW! a blast from the past!
I used to drive a 2110 with a 24 ft. refrigerated box back in 1970, it had a 501 Red Diamond gasser with a 10 spd roadranger. The Red Diamond engines had a split exhaust manifold going into a large weed burner muffler mounted underneath the pass. side frame rail, which failed from wheel spray on the red hot muffler warping it. The company shop replaced the factory muffler with a 2 foot long glass pack muffler on each exhaust manifold pipe. I just LOVED the sound of those pipes rapping off shifting thru the gears! Those 2110's were good riding with their spring suspension cabs, spring Bostrom seats, and they handled well in tight turn maneuvering with their new wider steer axles.

Older trucks in the fleet were R200's with RD 450's and a straight cut gear 5 speed stick (Rockwell?) with 2 spd rear ends - SLOOW shifters! And hard riding...
