RSD501

We ran a bunch of of knock off brands the last few years and figured out it isn't worth it. They don't last, they don't repair well, and they don't recap. When we were running a lot of them, it was because we needed to save every penny we could, and we still do, but the truth was that they cost more in the long run.

Thanks for the reply. I think I will stay away from them.

This is off topic, but I need a set of tires for a dump trailer. Have any of you guys purchased Rollcoo tires from the place in wheeling? They are the same price as recaps from pomps or tredroc. Is it too good to be true?

I have a 2000 CH with a 460. It started running like the fuel filters were plugged the other afternoon. I drove it about 20 miles to drop it off and get a liner installed in the trailer. The motor was breaking up in between 1300 an 1600 rpm, when in the higher gears. the idle seemed a little rough at stoplights too. The shop called me saturday afternoon and said they went to start the truck, and it seemed to loose its prime. I went out there today, and the red fuel filter was down about an inch, and the primer didn't have any pressure. I filled the filters, cracked some lines, and eventually got the truck running. It ran pretty rough, and had no power. I tried to get it home, but I didn't think the truck would make it. Any ideas? I have never had an "electronic" mack before, and dont want to just throw parts at it. Thanks, Rob

kinda thought snap binders were a No No in recent years with the DOT? least I know we don't use them when moving Dozers or lifts. Ratchet binders can be a pita if you go to use them and he last guy only loosened them enough to get the thing unhooked then threw it in he box, especially when your in a hurry. I like the ratchet binders with the hand that folds away myself.

I always close my ratchet binders all the way back in. Then they dont rust and always work freely… Only takes a second to hold them out and wind the back out

Looks really good, and I really like hand painted logos! Not too much of that these days.

I was going through some old stuff of my grandpas. He had purchased some internationals from Lewis IH in the late seventies or early eighties. Apparently they gave out these with the purchase.

I saw this Superliner the other day and then again this morning. I think its out of Rockford. I see he has two different

wagons. Clean one owner, never off roaded...probably not. Looks like it has seen better days. I hope he is on the

clock because that full frame Fruehauf has got to be heavy.

That trailer was on craigslist for awhile. What pit is that?

Holy sh@t! That would make me never want to pull a lowboy again. That has to be one of the more expensive screw ups...

Yep,Mike.You are correct.Looks like the late "Lucky Bob" Amato's old Super-Liner. It sold last year sometime and not to far away from that other Superdog you bought close to my place.

I was thinking the same thing. I had some pictures of it when it was sitting at Benny's. I think i posted them in the Chicago thread.

was the brown superliner on truckpaper for awhile this spring? I think it was "completly redone" and listed as a CL713 in florida... I could be wrong.

the superliner with the Axle trailer looks pretty good

Took these pictures just a few short months ago. I'm so glad winter is over.

Were you hauling out of Vulcan Lake Bluff today?

This looks like a superliner cab. went for pretty cheap.

I saw that this truck was in the March 28th auction. and just didn't have the $$ to bid on it right now. Looks like it went for a good price.

To get the best COLD air, you must shut off the valve on the motor that's inline with the heater. I noticed a big difference with cooling.

I did that, and it would blow cold in the morning before the sun was up. But the a/c just couldnt keep up. I think this spring I will tint the side and back window. I just was disappointed with the results of $1600 in air conditioning parts

On the subject of superliner A/C, does it ever actually blow cold and hard enough to cool the cab? I replaced the grilldensor, compressor and dryer and the a/c really sucks. It never blows very cold. Any ideas?

and there is an E9 super liner

Here are a couple more pictures borrowed from the Tom Bronge collection of the Alan Smith Superliner.

He had before and after bunk pictures. Was a beautiful truck with a hopped up V8. A shame it burned to the ground

That is the first truck i drove when I had my cdl permit

It's gonna take a helluva lot more than chrome lug nut covers and chicken lights to overcome the fugly factor on this one.

and the name on the side of the trailer...

It sucks that the guy works for $125k a year and doesn't already have insurance.

And we used to have a 931 with the detachable backhoe and a 4 in 1. That thing was pretty tired by the time it was sold, and the backhoe was more of a pain in the ass than anything.

Cat 988A, (2013). A long service life from these machines, I think the last year of production for the "A" series

was 1976.

That machine has good rubber on it. My old man used to have 2 980's, they were still running strong when he sold them.
