  1. Vlad, the CH has different front springs.
  2. Yes, the WS/WL did use R-model springs, e.g. 2QK3378 (10,500lb) and 2QK3378P2 (12,000lb). But the Super-Liner II (aka. RWI), well the RWI 600 was an Ultra-Liner chassis while the RWI700 was a heavier variant of that chassis. And the MH/RWI used a new family of springs.
  3. It's stamped right there on the front of the axle. Also, if I researched the front axle assembly number also in your picture (it appears to be 1QHA5745P2), it would tell me the axle model and show all the parts.
  4. It's a Mack model FAW537C 12,000lb steer axle.
  5. Apply 20wt non-detergent motor oil to the (rubber) trunnion insulators at installation.
  6. MAN builds a very good truck, arguably better than M-B. However Scania with its Mack-born V8 is simply the world's best. .
  7. Well that's quite a compliment. I'll just say it's a European-style COE wearing the blue oval. Ford-Otosan really hit it out of the park with the F-Max.
  8. No sir. That was not me.
  9. Bob, at the EPA's direction and with their funding, Navistar attempted to reach EPA2010 (virtually Euro 6) with MEGR (massive exhaust gas recirculation.....levels of 35% to 50%). Today's engines still utilize a modest amount of EGR, but SCR to achieve emissions with Adblue.

  11. You heard wrong. Whoever told you that is grossly misinformed. I invite you to call Barry. Even busier than before, I lack the time to post as much as I once did.
  12. We spoke on this a while back, Bob.

  14. This is a beautiful truck.......Ford F-Max L, powered by the 500 horsepower Ford 12.7L Ecotorq. https://www.fordtrucks.com.tr/Uploads/Documents/f_max_l_eng_euro6e.pdf .
  15. I know some people there. I brought it up. They did engineer it to be spec'd as a tractor.
  16. Who was kicked off BMT ? I await your reply.

  19. I feel it's a great looking truck. I'm very proud of Ford's global heavy truck business. I know that Bill Ford is. He took a chance with financing the F-Max, i.e. investing in taking Ford International to the next level, and it has paid off !
  20. "At Ford, we're serious about trucking. That's why we designed the new F-Line from the ground up to meet your needs. Why we build them to be lightweight and tough. And back them with a global dealer network specializing in heavy trucks with some of the finest facilities in the industry." . https://www.fordtrucks.com.tr/en/news/f-line https://www.fordtrucks.com.tr/en/news/solutrans https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-IaiaYU6m4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sP9IPP4okAg .
