That's a solid looking crop, would only be seen on irrigated land over here in Oz.

Added a newer dog to the fleet, 2014 Superliner 685hp MP10 with mdrive trans. Shown pulling new seed and fertilizer tender bin for wheat planting. I know its mainly Volvo, but a whole lot smoother on our rough roads than the old girl. Hope they play together nicely

Greetings from Downunder. Haven't posted for a while so thought would show a couple of the old girl hauling grain with two end tippers in road train configuration. About 80 tons gross, 52 ton payload. 1986 Series 2 E9500 12 speed on camelback

I have seen a couple of Magnums here in Oz, not sure if they were copies or the real thing. Do we know which truck museum this one is going into ? Would like to go and see it.

I understand that there were a limited number made with 3408s in Brisbane Australia. I have seen a photo of one with a lengthened hood to accomodate it on old australian macks Facebook page

Superdog your livestock trailers are certainly a lot different to ours over here in Oz What species do you carry on that one, and how many to a load ? Cheers

No luck Looks like I am stuck with the rigid drive for now.

Thanks snowdog, mine looks like #1 top left corner Will try PAI parts dealer in Sydney with the part number Cheers

Thanks for the photos Bad Dog Did the clutch and fan come as a kit or did the original Mack fan still fit ?

Are viscous fan clutches for E9 V8s available still in the US ? Part #38MH315A Mack Australia now only supplies a direct drive for the fan that runs continually, makes a lot of unnecessary noise and dust and makes the motor run too cool in winter. Thanks in advance

Thanks fellas for your kind words Here are some pictures of the air cleaner mounts and air tubes that Ray was after. I suspect the air cleaners are also larger than those I see in the US photos, as this truck was specced to work on outback dirt roads. Also note snorkels on top of each unit to try to reduce dust intake. The air cleaners are mounted on each corner of the cab and have a bar between the to stabilize them, and the air hoses go in a cutout in each back corner of the hood. Just fitted a mean muffler to it today off a mates Superliner that he fitted a C16 Cat to, makes my old girl cackle good under load.

Here is a right hand drive one from Oz E9 500 12 speed 44s on camel back 1986 build Even the bulbar was made by Mack in Brisbane Aust Not as shiny as some above, but still original and in work
