Superliner question
jackb61sx replied to mackr400's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I know on my 89 the model is an RW753 so the 753 on mine relates to the engine that's in it which is a 425hp Cat Jack -
95 dm 688s project pics
jackb61sx replied to ctkiteboarding's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Sharp looking truck, very nice job on it. Jack -
Any time I have moved equipment, I loaded it, secured it and unloaded it, First off it was my job to do that, second I am not going to trust anyone to move a piece of equipment on and off my trailer. The driver should have never sat in the truck and not been there. If that happened to me I would have been in search of a new job that day.

Caterpillar Shows Long-Hood CT680; 15-Liter Diesel on the Way
jackb61sx replied to kscarbel2's topic in Trucking News
I thought the same thing when I looked at it, the big grill with the trim package. -
It was a nice day, my first time taking my truck out there I think there where over a 100 trucks there and the best part was I won the raffle for the free diesel fuel, so got my truck filled up again for the 90 mile ride home.

Superliner 1 steering box leak
jackb61sx replied to Outbehindthebarn's topic in Driveline and Suspension
Does your truck have one box or two and if it does which box is leaking, I have a rebuild seal kit from Mack that I never used on my truck, it was from the passenger side, I had to replace both my steering box's, the driver side was just worn out so I replaced it with one from Mack and the other side was leaking, we opened it up and the outer seal just had to much of a wear grove under it that new seals would of leaked sooner or later so we replaced it aswell. So if you need a kit I have one. Jack -

I took mine from 6" straights back to factory original 5" with muffler, it looks much better with mufflers and quieter. -
Superliner Stacks
jackb61sx replied to bmking16's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I believe it would depend on the motor in the truck, mine are 5" from the turbo and mine is a 425hp Cat. -

They are louder, ours is turbo so noise is that nice bark, I would try it and see what you think. -
Richie Auction
jackb61sx replied to jackb61sx's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
That is an impressive amount. Wonder if a collector bought it. -
A friend told me that he believed that at the Mack Legend they had sold for over a $100,000 dollars at auction. Would anyone know if that was true, I don't have an account at Richie to go on line and see auction history. Jack

1992 RW613
jackb61sx replied to r686st's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I don't feel Bigdogtrucker that I was INSANE to pay that, the prices I got at body shops that do trucks and that included Coastal in NH that was in line with others and I was really insane then to spend $20,000 on the B-model, You get what you pay for. R686st that price you got I would grab for all that work and they have a good reputation I would do it, also both our trucks where painted in single stage PPG Mack Red -
1992 RW613
jackb61sx replied to r686st's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I painted the frame on my Superliner last fall, I paid $5,000 to have the frame sandblasted, headboard, deckplates, 5th wheel and fender brackets and repairs to the passenger door. -
Snowbound
jackb61sx replied to leversole's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
The truck was plugged in all winter as cheap insurance that all was well under the hood. keeps the oil warm, and all other fluids, under that cover the heat from the block heater was warm enough to melt the snow on the cover where it was against the cover on the hood and cab. I dug the truck out today and uncovered it and started it up for the first time since 2nd week of December, that Cat fired off on the first crank,,,thats why I leave it plugged in. Jack -
