  1. John can you answer me this , this truck had spring susp. with 80,000 rears , i thought all 80,000 rears would have had solid walking beam susp. or is this something someone did on there own
  2. those 8 spoke rears are 80,000 lb rears , also if you noticed it had juice brakes on the rear axles another trait for the 80,000 lb Mack rears
  3. I was at the auction here are some pics, there were 2 of these monsters from Hallamore , one had a cummins , the other was much newer with a e9 and a 12 speed i took that one for a ride it had a 8 axle step deck on it
  4. where did you find this ad ?
  5. i wasnt positive if it was a 865 or a 866 thanks for clearing that up what was the difference between the 3 of them i think one was twin turbo right
  6. I found a 1974 Dm897sx heavy hauler, triple frame , 65 rears 23 front, winch, cab is fair to rough cond. frame has only very minor spreading in the back , orig. 865 v8 and 12 speed, runs good. The owner knows I want it, because I hunted him down to find out if he'll sell it, of course he goes "go check it out again and make me a offer" . Whats would you guys say is a fair price for it?? I had the $5,000 to $6,000 range in mind what you think
  7. If anyone needs me to check it out for them let me know I live 15 mins for where this truck is located.
  8. Hey B66 , i was wondering if I can come down and view the Mahan collection or if theres a Phone number i can get some info about it thanks Brian
  9. just wondering whos museum has the b87sx your talking about DM ???
  10. I have seen many B873's, the early ones had the low cast tops, the other 4 or 5 i have seen that had the tall steel tops were like 1965's i.e. maybe they figured more capacity, i have only seen 1 true B87sx with the nhrs supercharged cummins, it was like a 1963 and it had the cast top and yes i regret not buying it every day hope this helps
  11. i looked at a 1991 or 1992 in pa that had a 18 sp mack in it not sure if it was origional or what but it was in there
  12. i drive 1 every day and have found by just giveing the clutch a quick tap half way down while spliting down will solve this and you will be able to split down with out a peep
  13. Hey guys I drove by a local junk yard today here in Seymour, CT and sitting there is a fair cond. B61 10 wheeler not sure of any details because they were closed but it looked very restorable , its at Daddio's auto parts in Seymour CT right along RT 8 exit 21 (203) 735-8649

  15. I am in the procees of buying a B87sx tractor the owner told me it had a Thompson retarder on it but it was removed 30 plus years ago because it didnt work well , so i dont even know what it was or how it worked , he did say it was hydraulic and the control is still on the steering colum same as a trolly brake valve, he did say it mounted on the rear axle any info or if any has 1 forsale please let me know thanks in advance Brian
