Dont get me wrong Lynn, appreciate any and all comments and advice. What I know about these trucks is very limited and I am always learning.
I was cracking a cynical joke
you know...the tyre kickers at events that would point out the directional arrow facing the wrong way.
I have seen the tyres in reverse even in old pictures. I think you are spot on in your assessment. It depended on wether the truck was predominantly on bitumen or dirt work that determined which direction the tread was facing.
It would make for better tread wear if I was to reverse them..
