I remember seeing them. Holy cow, forgot all about them.

Thanks for the read. I had seen and heard old timers giving advice on people looking for older trucks with the older Cummins in them, and to be wary of anything with the "Low Flow" coolant system. Had no clue why.

I see i posted on this thread, rather than another thread. Anyway, not gray wires... If you can find the 9-2 code svc. bulletin, it has a good procedure. Of course, Heinz can find good info as well..

my 62 had that same bar,,,it was balanced perfect so i could tilt the cab by hand

im still waiting for all the fat cutting that was supposed to take place,,,and now the media is rattling on about cutting SS by 2033,,,,oh ya well just what is anybody doing about it right now?????you got 8 years to straighten it out,,bob

well how do you like them apples,,,,break for lunch,and now im having trouble getting back out there,lol...bob

my god thats ingenious,,,,thanks for that paul

Tyre art for the garden, the very height of sophistication in 1960's and 70's Australia The very best was the Swan made out of a tyre and some nice flowers growing in it Paul

yeah ill bet

i didnt think that yard pick was gonna work,,,since i didnt have a tire hammer,,,,

WOW, this my learnt thing for this week Having the coolant in tiptop condition would be critical I would think There's a huge amount going in in those motors and their cooling system Maybe Mack had a patent on the tip turbine idea and Cummins and other manufacturers had to have a different approach Tip turbines biggest draw back is you can't build big boost, 21 pounds is sort of the max and you have to be pulling pretty hard and that boost is only for a short amount of time 15 - 17 is sort of normal Get to a chassis mounted intercooler and I read of blokes getting 35 pounds boost Thanks Geoff, very educational Paul

oh forgot to mention,,,made a half ass stand out of 2/4s served well ,,,bob

Guy not far from me done that with tractor wheels...filled them with clay and planted flowers in them...looks great. Paul

I thought you were supposed to relax in retirement. Here you are breaking down split rims with a pick axe. 😅

ok i got 4 dismounted,,,5th is giving me a little trouble breaking for lunch,,,had to take last bad tire off left rear axle to dismount,,,thats the side with the leaky wheel seal,,,,im just going to leave the wheels off for now and change that seal,,,another thing added to my list,,,ill just leave it up on boards for now,,,since the truck is down anyway right now,,,i did get that end cap to move just a little before i started on the wheels,,thank god,,,,i was starting to have my doubts,,,atleast im able to shoot oil in all around the cap

While the expenditures he is discussing are lunacy, the man just voted yes for a bill that cost US taxpayers $3,500,000,000,000 (3.5 trillion). Now he's yapping about cutting $9,000,000,000 (nine billion). Hmmm. 9/3500 = 0.2%. I think he is a hypocrite.

The F-MAX looks absolutely brilliant to me. A cutting edge truck. I'm extremely proud of Ford and partner Otosan. They've enthusiastically pushed and made it all happen.......a lot of hard work......with Bill Ford's unwavering support.

I had one of them once, was surprisingly easy to pull cab over. terry

Still have one of them out in my shop! terry

This model is on Ebay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/297446498218 .....Hippy

I don't think any F600's made it to Australia F700's yes, they had a drive shaft for steering running across the dash, under a cover etc so it didn't stand out Then like pretty much every Mack built over the next 40 years in Australia, the R model chassis was used, long after everyone else in the world The R model chassis lent itself to RHD conversion much better than anything else Mack has built, the frame rail shape So CH Macks had a R model chassis out here The F 700 became the FR 700, F cab R chassis Paul
