Re: are they this loud?
All I noticed was a CCKW with the US Flag being displayed improperly.
The US Flag Code
Title 10 US Code, Chapter 10, subsection 17, paragraph B. "The flag should not be draped over the hood, top, sides or back of a vehicle or of a railroad train or boat. When the flag is displayed on a motorcar, the staff shall be fixed permanently to the chassis or clamped to the right fender.
Now, what were you saying?

K44 in the Beltring show ring
I recognise the US Navy grey one, but I don't think I'd see the K44 Earth Augur truck at Beltring before.

Re: are they this loud?
I would say it is the recording method used. Normal about of gear noise compaired to engine noise. That is one of the heavier Chevy trucks and has alot more drivetrain parts.

My K-43 has alot of gear noise as well. I always wondered if that was OK.
That was a cool video.

My K43 was 10516, I think
What's the chassisl number on your K43 Paul? Mine was converted to a basic cargo truck by a new owner long since.
I think half that noise would be due to the fact it is crawling round a show ring in low range.

Re: are they this loud?
Hi, that video is one of my chevy that my girlfriend made in 2007.
When I drive it on the street there is no noisy gearbox it runs very smooth.
In the arena i drove in low gear because it was to muddy. And the weight is 5.5 ton and I couldn't shift from 2nd to 3rd in low gear.
I have a nice picture of the k44 and k43 I'll try to post it.
