  1. We broke my 10 month old engine in my RS last week. Along with a flat tire and a disintegrated clutch. Long story and two less employees. We are in the process of installing a different motor. Problem is we don't know exactly what the motor we are installing is. It came out of a 89 super liner and runs good with no blowby and has a dynatard. But someone stole the engine tag so I don't know horsepower or other pertinent info. It is a 2 valve with tip turbine. Any ideas how to tell what I have?

  2. Let me know storkmack. The are taking up space in my shop. I wanted to do the same thing with a 8ll or mack 12 speed but don't have the time. And my RS with the 6 speed is getting better millage than my new truck.

  4. Any good cylinder shop should be able to custom build you one. My local shop built me as cylinder for my bobcat excavator from cylinders he had laying around. It cost me $400 andvonly took a week. Bobcat wanted $1490 and wad backorder 4 months. Get me dimensions and I can see what it would take. Shipping as shouldn't be that bad.

  5. Definitely need to fine tune that lift axle. You should have no problem getting 18 to 20 on that steer. That is the worst feeling sliding the steers hoping you can catch and make the turn. I never ditched it, but soiled myself more than once with a 345b on.

  6. I have the Bibeau BFL-S box on my freightliner. I love it. It is light weight and tough as nails. I am hauling class B rip-rap (200 to 800lb) boulders and barely a dent in the floor and no dents in the sides. The only option I don't have is the highlift. It adds about 500lbs to the total weight of the truck. It also adds some maintenance to the truck. The company I bought the truck from stopped ordering them for that reason. Now we just order the extended hinges and haven't had any issues. I will try to get a picture of the hinges tomorrow.
