    Anybody have any experience with Capital Reman out of Colorado? I was checking on new engines and they are about 5000 cheaper than what mack wanted for a rebuilt engine.

    I would buy one and know another guy that said he would also
  3. 880joe
    I will look and see if I have one
  4. 880joe
    It's a RS686LST. I'll try to post pictures but usually don't have much luck at it
  5. 880joe
    I will have to check I know it's not regular R model

    I can get some but may be a while truck is about 20 minutes from the house. I'm usually gone during the week and busy with other home stuff on the weekend

    Are these trucks reliable or are they just a headache to stay away from?

    I never could see mine leaking couldn't find any other place leaking so I replaced the compressor and that fixed my leak
  11. 880joe
    Sometimes they leak around front seal of compressor and it's not visible

    Heres some pictures of the grill, there are a few small cracks and a broken piece in the middle of MACK, but otherwise looks pretty good.

    I have always heard them called nut certs or rivet nuts and they are supposed to be crimped to the metal tight enough so they don't spin
  14. 880joe
    I'll try to get some for you tomorrow
  15. 880joe
    I still have the red one
  16. 880joe
    I have a MH parts truck I'll look and see how good the grill is in it when I get home

    Not sure why it didn't work. It's a BW 171702 turbo that starts out with a smaller than 115 housing then is supposed to open up to the 132 at 8lbs of boost.
  18. 880joe
    Took the switchblade turbo off put my old one back on now getting about 34lbs of boost
  19. 880joe
    Problem fixed
  20. 880joe
    New line put on no boost leaks now,gauge checked for accuracy and still only about 22lbs of boost
  21. 880joe
    Found 2 holes in the fresh air line from intake to air compressor,charge air cooler tested good. Not put the new line on yet but the holes on the old appear to have been there for a while so not sure that that is all my issue.
  22. 880joe
    Not yet going to do that tomorrow
  23. 880joe
    I have a 99 CH with a 355/380 just replaced heads and put on the switchblade turbo,full tilt exhaust manifold and rochester 2.5 injectors now I'm only getting alot of smoke and only about 20lbs of boost. Before the head job I was running full tilt manifold 75hp K&S injectors and a 460 non waste gated turbo and would get some smoke and around 30lbs of boost. Any ideas or thoughts where I went wrong
  24. 880joe
    Someone on here was telling about a place selling eup's for less than 300 if I remember right
  25. 880joe
    I can't get pictures to post on here so if you want to send me an email or phone number I can send it to you that way
