RW700 had 3/8" thick rails which were of taller section in relation to RW600's. Those had 1/4" rails. Could have inserts to be doubled though. For engine options 613/713 is Mack, 643 Detroit, 633 Cummins and 653 for Cat. 

Forgot to mention Mack had many engine options from the E6 to the E9 all with several different HP ratings.

Try calling these folks.  They helped me.

Looking at that website I would at least give then a call for a rebuild on your clutch. That way there is no wrong parts or at least a minimum. Check to see about the wear shims as mentions.

When I did my double disc Mack pusher clutch it went to Southbend Clutch in IN years ago. They put in heavier pressure plate springs and ceramic pucks instead of organic clutch lining. Not to hard on the foot, holds well and no chater. No clutch smell when slipping it a little ether.

I've got an e7 350 all mechanical. Took my Bosch injection pump to get rebuilt and it needs plungers and barrels. No one has them as they've been obsolete for awhile. There are still so many of these pumps still in service it's hard to believe there are no options. I'm down to the point of swapping engines out of another truck I have so I can get back to work. What is everyone doing when your pump finally gives up?

You are not looking in the right places. I had a few pumps in a Bosch shop several years ago. P3000 & P7100's to have governor and flow calibrations. There were on the shelf for years and wanted them set for a project engine. Fact is there was One Guy in the whole shop that could work on them and limited at that. No Spec's on any of them being all mechanical. I had to tell him the settings I wanted. Of course "Well that seems off" Well then tell me were the settings should be, OK I'll set them to your numbers. Said don't worry about it took the pumps and sent them to Fair Valley Performance in Wisconsin, 608-643-0200. They do AG, Pulling, Truck injection. P3000 & P7100 pumps are their specialty. For stock to full-on smokers. They had everything to rebuild these pumps and more. Send your pump there, almost sure it will come back with new plungers, if bad at a reasonable price and work ready.

If there are 22" bias or radial tube tires available anywhere I am interested.

I have 22" Alcoa's split rims on a LTL. My tires are OK for short runs and shows but I would never take a trip or have any weight on them now. These tires where hard to get 20 years ago and had to be ordered from India. Cheat is the brand. 

I put 24.5s on another truck as good 22" Alcoa's are nonexistent today as well as the tube tires. Then try and find a tire shop that will work on split rims. So 22.5 or 24.5 is your only option now.

Also a great point by, mattb73lt, if you get a flat or need a tube tire no one will have anything but 22.5 or 24.5 tubeless radials in a shop anywhere.

Late to the Party on the Turbos. What is the turbo part number you have? I have several 865/866 turbos on the self for years now. Have to dig them out. Used and spin freely, no slop in shafts. If interested let me know. $300 plus shipping each.

Most guys on here would agree that a LTL, B-75 or Superliner are true classics. In that order of age and scarcity. Also for parts availability, none to some. The wow factor is an original LTL. Think you would want an LTH that has steel instead of aluminum components. The Good LTL is beautiful and seen it in person but the only thing LTL is the sheet metal. Even my LTL has been repowered but all else is true 53 LTL.

Depends on what you want to get and pay for. But you are asking: If you like what you got find some nice sheet metal, be it LTL, B-75, Superliner and mount it on the frame and drivetrain you have already. There are many truck done that way, remember the BRC from Mack? You would have a one and only. There were 6x6 B-models but very few and no 6x6 LTL's. It would certainly be a standout. Just a thought and money ahead.

Forgive me for resurrecting this old thread, but I am doing a little research on the earlier Mack V-8's and have a few questions.  First off, according to some of my old service manuals, the 864's had a different bore and stroke than the 865/866's.  The 864 being 5 X 5.5 vs. 5.5 X 5 for the later engines.  The rod journals are also quite a bit larger.  I am wondering if the 864 had crankshaft issues?  I also see the 864's used a Bosch PSJ rotary pump, and some of the later V-8's used a Bosch APE in-line.  I know the PSJ's could be trouble, at least they were on GMC Toroflows. 

Thanks.

    

Don't know what you are asking but the 864 is the worst of all the Mack V8's.

The bore and stroke are 5x5.5 for 864 and 5.25x5.0 for the 865/866.  E9 is 5.375x5.5. Rod journals are all different. 864 Bad for multiple reasons, first Mack V8, bad heads, bad injection pump, low power, most all non-turbo'ed. These days parts are nonexistent. Sold my last 864, 10 years ago for $400 locked-up and for parts, had the twin turbo set-up and sold that as well.

865/866 are better but still had head issues and the V-pump.

E9's good "IF" taken care of. Will make good power but overheating will kill them. Still had head issues. They did have both the V-pump and inline pumps.

Those are freakin sweet but I have never seen fiberglass molded flares for a RD and my parts dude said what is offered is a roll of that ugly rubber shit $425 for a 15 foot roll from Mack, PAI online 10 foot rolls for $127 per, here is the part number for anyone interested… 24RU2705F

I have those fiberglass flairs on my RW and they where from AU.  I have the 425 floats on the front. This as like 10 years ago the cost was approx $400 for the flairs and $650 for the UPS shipping. So if you want them plan on over double that cost today.

I am looking at three Superliners all have E9’s. 
The two 88’s that were ordered together have 450’s. 
The 90 has a 500. 
Can anyone tell me when the Bosch inline pump replaced the Ambac V pump ?  
The guy that has them thinks they are all inline pumps. I believe the 90 could but unsure about the 88’s. I have read some blogs stating that the inlines found their way into some 88’s & 89’s but unsure. Waiting for definitive pics to see if in fact they are inline and if so could they be factory or converted. 
 

Thank you 

The 88's are definitely V Pumps. The 90 is also with a rare chance of an inline. A photo of the engine will tell all.

The inline pumps started to be used in late 90 and the total change over was in 91. The Superliners was gone in 92 and a few of them had the inline. I don't know of but a few conversions to the inline pump over the years.

My Sperliner had a whole E9 transplant out of a 93 CL Elite that had the inline pump already. It is a better pump for big HP but there is nothing wrong with a V pump in every other application. The V has 11mm plungers and is good for around 750hp. The inline about 1000hp with standard 12mm plungers. With 13mm plungers the inline is good for 1500hp.

I don't know that I would pass on an E9 in a nice truck with ether style pump. If you want it stock at 450-500hp ether will work great and plenty of power. To convert from one pump to another is not that EZ.  Either way you have to have custom lines and brackets made as they are discontinues a long time ago.

Is that the power steering reservoir above the rocker cover

Are we sure it isn't leaking oil out of that and it's run all over the rocker cover and exhaust manifold, then onto the chassis rail, just following the trail of evidence from the top of the mess downwards

It should be the Powers steering reservoir that is making all the mess. They leak even on a good day and all the time. The manifolds are rusted so there is no oil just running on them not when this E9 is running. There would be no oil remaining like that after a good days run. Good thing is the manifold seal is more than likely good with that nightly oil covering it.

Can't tell what you got until it is running anyway but can speculate here. The big issue with these is breather blow-by and valve guides not oil leaks.

If you are looking for a complete E9 I got a whole MH with less that 100K miles and sitting for 20 years. Sell it for less than you are talking for just an engine.

I have emailed you, not sure if it may be in your junk inbox?

otherwise my email is courtney_jade16@hotmail.com I would like 3 sets of silver ones please, can  you please quote + postage ? Thanks!

Hi,

Did not get that past email. I did send info to your email today.

Hi are you still selling these?

thanks

Hi,

You can email me: jeff.caron@aol.com Let me know what you need.

Got them all as shown, these are really nice!

I did not expect to ship to Australia so shipping cost will be whatever it is with your preferred method.

eBay, Like $10 with free shipping. All you should need is the primer. It is leaking air so loosing the prime.

I did not have a Deere track loader but... Had a Cat 931B track loader with that same pin on Deere backhoe. Used it a lot for building my house, barn and maintaining the 18 acres of woods I had for years. I could not give it away about 5 years ago. Actually Sold for $2000 made me Sick but went for Scrap price. It looked good and did not need even paint. There was Noting wrong with it but age. It did not have ROPS and that was a issue. It had a 4&1 bucket as well. Rebuild tracks, new shoes, new sprockets, new oversized hinged lower mouth bucket, Engine with 250 hours, drive clutches, brakes. Hoe needed bushings but dug anything I wanted. Only used about 4 gallon of fuel and hour. Always started and ran well even when it was close to freezing. You do not want to drive a track loader on frozen ground or snow!!

It was the perfect machine for anything around the property. With that 4&1 hauling firewood & taking out tree stumps was a piece of cake. You can hook a log splitter up to the hydraulic hoe lines and just leave the engine idle and split anything. Could really carry about 2 1/2 tons in the extended bucket with the hoe on the back, needed the counter balance weight. Open the bucket and push like a Dozer. If I still had property it would be the machine to have.

These older machines are not hard to work on just heavy parts and big wenches. Cat charges $$$ for parts but only thing I sent out was the engine block to get bored and line honed when it was rebuilt. 

Weight came up here The 931B with hoe was 22,000lbs. The Deere should be no more than 16-17,000. You should be able to haul this on a 20,000 tilt bed equipment trailer. Think the hoe pins are 1 1/2" Dia. Just get round bare stock and drill the ends for carter or spring pins.

That certainly looks like it is Bi-metal with a large radius. It maybe a piece off a well worn crankshaft thrust bearing. The rear side bearing does wear especially with a stiff clutch and being held down for extended periods of time. This could be the outer lip that is generated as the crank wears into the bearing. Crank walk and adjusting the clutch would be a sign of this.

Thanks!  I'm talking to him on FB too...hopefully someone has a good sample so we can get these back on the shelves!

You both know that Mike passed away, Right?

Sorry to let the administrator & moderator of this forum know of Passed events.

The emblems are as accurate as can be. The bottom emblems are the originals. Take a look at the pins compared to the top 4 emblems, they are the same spacing even with the taper to start the kwik-nuts, they are a direct fit.

I have original emblems with the pins broken off, one of the reasons for making these. 3M high bond tape works great if the pins are missing, cut-off or drilling is an issue. I have mounted emblems with 3M tape for years. All newer car emblems are mounted with the 3M high bond material.
