    No reason you can't use the one you have from the etech

    I thought peak torque was around 1100 rpm on those. Probably came out with a 5,6,7,or 8 speed mack transmission when new

    I had a similar situation and it was the gasket between the turbo and exhaust manifold

    Here is a picture of the headlight and turn signal for a CH almost positive the RD uses same headlight just 4 screws that holds it in.
  7. 880joe
    You working on an RD is that correct? I think Wilbur is talking about CHs. Maybe I'm confused
  8. 880joe
    are they not the same as the new ch uses
  9. 880joe
    The light and turn signal are separate pieces

    I've saw those after market LED lights advertised for the CH mack but I don't think they will actually fit better make sure b4 ordering. The olney LED ones I found that fit are the new ones from Mack
  11. 880joe
    Pretty sure they use the same headlight
  12. 880joe
    Would the variable geometry turbo be stuck in wrong position?

    I would sure like to know what they did to reinforced the inside of cab to keep them from breaking. I called 3 or 4 mack dealers and body shops and no one had any clue
  15. 880joe
    The factory rawhide exhaust mounts to the cab I don't think there would be any other way to mount them. I had a Rawhide with a million miles on it and the cab where the exhaust brackets bolted on was not broken out. I built a set brackets similar to the original design and put on a 99 CH reinforced the cab some but apparently not enough because they broke the cab out in about 6 months. Not sure how mack reinforced the cab to keep that from happening and couldn't find anyone that could tell me how they did it.
  16. 880joe
    You could find you a Rawhide and get a vin# and order the brackets from mack or just make your own. The brackets from mack are not cheap. Also if you do this you better make sure you reinforce the cab good where they fasten to the cab or you will have problems with them breaking the cab out.

    I like my CH's

    You should try Grand Rock Exhaust they have mack factory exhaust kits I believe I saw on their website in the past.
  19. 880joe
    Not really hard to replace but the screws that holds the light in all twisted off or had to drill out because they were corroded in then had to put nuts on back side. As far as the wiring you have to get a pigtail that fits the light and cut your original end off and splice them together only 3 wires on each side.

    I converted one of my CH's to LED I bought mine from mack about 500 each they are all one piece. Another guy on here did one I believe he just put new headlights in and replaced the 9004 bulb with an LED replacement was alot cheaper probably a better way to go as it would be cheaper and easier to replace out on the road if one was to go out. They do make an amazing difference over the old ones.

    Are the new CHU's using the same frame as they used on the CHN or did they change them when they went to the CHU? If there is a difference what year did it change?
  22. 880joe
    Are you just needing cores for exchange

    If he doesn't still have it I have 1 I would sell
  24. 880joe
    All my CH's do that also I was hoping someone on here had a cure for it.
  25. 880joe
    He could have it ported and ceramic coated that is supposed to help exhaust temperature
