now I see where Clark got there 91000lb hub idea from which they did'nt remodel till the 70's. Mack's were a much stronger planetary rear end set up than the Clark's. (needle bearings for pinion gears and "O" rings for sealing) instead of PERMATEX which went hard under heat and leaked worse than the green leakers that were powering them.

1710 wasn't out yet but they did have the V-12 1486s Cummins

the first batch of MACK CL350s were powered by 12V71@456 power (N65) injecters 6 speed 5960 allison trans and Mack planetary rears.some still at work hauling logs.

There were a lot of heavy duty Mack LT's here on Vancouver Island in the logging industry.H-S 400s, 65,000 lb rears ,12.00:24 tires,12 ft bunks.

I was told that the Kenworth that had the V-12 was hauling butane tanker out of LA and when they got out of site they hooked the truck fuel system to the tanker.No one will say if they ever got caught.

no there is one uglier than that and that's the DIAMOND T COE.It is butt ugly,even the interior
-
there are two bends to that style. The ones off a L model MACK and the ones off a B model Mack.The L model is a lot flatter than the B model.

I find oven cleaner from the wifes cupboard then wash off with garden hose.Takes the grease off the rear ends and trans.with no problem. just let it soak for a few minutes after spraying on. Practice makes perfect.
