  1. etech! Make me a reasonal offer. Motor is strong, Transmission was completely reman from Mack dealer 2 years ago I have all paper work. new tranny mounts was put in at time and clutch. I had bought her from a guy that ran in and out of landfill. 85% of my work is asphalt this truck really did the job for me but all rolling on all that soft crap but a lot of stress on the frame. I also put a trunion on here as well it has no spider cracks.    

     

  2. Does anyone know any thing about 2006 VOLVO VHD64 Dump Truck the set up is VED12 Volvo 465 HP, 8LL, Jake, 4.56 Ratio, Hendrickson Walking Beam, Double Frame, 20K FA, 46K RA, 3 Steerable 13K L/A, Air Tailgate, 90 Gallon Aluminum Fuel Tank, 302" WB, 27'6" Bridge, 425/65R22.5 Steer Tires on Aluminum Wheels, 11R24.5 Drive Tires on Steel Wheels, Chrome Bumper, P/S, A/C, AM/FM CD, Heated Mirrors, Cruise, Diff Lock, Air Ride Cab, Power Passenger Window!

    All I've ever owned was Macks. I'm trying to find out if Volvos are dependable piece of equipment.

  3. Thinking about buying a Used truck that was used in the Landfill to haul slag! As you guys know that stuff is Nasty! Wanted to know as far as cleaning the truck and going through her! Should I pressure wash, sand blast, should I change brakes, chambers, ??????? It is an Cl 700 1998 six axel and has Aluminum dump bed. Aluminum tag axel wheels! The Aluminum looks dirty and I would take any ideas on cleaning that up also! I'll be running her on milling and don't want to look like what she has been running in (DUMP)!

  4. I took a look at the truck today and the rear hosing had a crack that they welded on the front of the housing near the front right! It looked like the weld held but he told me that he thinks another crack stared beside it! I really could get a good look because he's putting a new rebuilt Mack tranny in her! I'm really think I'm going to buy her a few months ago he had new reman Engine out in her, clutch, that rear end that has a leak was a remack read end put in a year ago. He put to knew tie rods on the front and new turbo when he put motor in! This guy had bought a few newer trucks and BANG HE LOST HIS MAJOR CONTRACT! So now he needs some quick money to keep things in order long story short he offered me this truck 98 Cl 700 six axel Dump for $20,000 I just don't see how I can go wrong!

  5. Thanks for the reply! I went to the dealership the other day and looked at the new Granites the way the had the antennas wired it looks like a lot of work to pull them wires and install your own!!! So I guess you right I'll just keep everything stock I just hope Mack used good stuff because communication is Key with me!
