Between Redmond and Madras? That's about the only part of 97 that I don't drive on, sense I live in Prineville. Thanks

Go past the Ford dealer heading south and 100 yards on the right. Across from the John Deere dealer.

I was just in Madras last week, in that area, but was having truck problems and did not see them.

"T" Suspension??

Not sure what the coupe is next to the 27/30 roadster pickup is but it has what appears to me as a "T" front axle with a traverse spring and with coil springs on the shackles.

, just one of those curiosity things, overloads??
