I came out of long island heading thry queens and exiting ny from the south went across a toll bridge that was $70 some dollars.....wtf... My best advice is if you can....go thru ny city at night...you think Chicago is bad in the day time......ha ha......I can't wait to hear your story on this run...the gw bridge is pot hole hell on the east side.... No where to park.... Just get thru it at night and hopefully get out a different way.....good luck!

What trans do you have in the truck now? The 237 was a turbo charged maxidyne non inter cooled only need 5 speeds The 285 was a turbo charged ,side mount charged cooled maxidyne only needed 5 speeds The 300 was a turbo charged ,front mount intercooled maxidyne needed 5 speeds The 315 or 300+ was a turbo charged thurmodyne side mount charge cooled,needed 7 or more gears if I recall . It was not a low lugging engine

Real clean truck there...hope it finds a good home..

Ex Greco const lowboy truck....v8 with a quad. Truck is pretty much stock from when he took ownership of it..

Looks like its a Canada built Mack with the big tanks and spread tandems.

I used asphalt sticky back sheets on the whole inside of my RS700L cab. Made a huge improvement in sound reduction. I can't comment on heat reduction but it cut the vibration noise level down pretty good.

Dident know you were into that kind of stuff brad...I know a few girls that do that kinky dominate stuff, they are real fun when drunk. What ever floats you boat....

My new horton fan clutch on my rs700 was less than 200 and I recall not to long ago when they sold new for less than 100.

It will fit with ease....the 700 series had options for Detroit,and Mack early v8s. If i recall The e9 is no longer than the inline 6 turbo fitment may have to be adjusted but should work

G&D valueliner Tanzillo RD's and Starks R770 at Chicagos Mc Cormick place for the public works show. This place is historicly a Union Nightmare! They want in your pockets and think they can do everthing better than you. Tanzillo #35 "old style"

Replace feed and pickup lines, they'd re cheap and easy to do. May want to replace the vent valve as well unless the fuel cap is your vent. There may be a check valve in the fuel return or feed. May want to replace that as well. If it still has issues it may be the pick up pump can't keep up at idle. This little pump hangs off the main fuel pump and has the in and out lines attached to it.

Hows his hand doing???....lol...... For some reason I always thought that truck would look cool with a 2 tone paint job....white stripes along the hood lines with pin stripe accents.......are you going to paint it into stark colors?

I have seen maybe 2 u models with a sleeper. Both were just small 36" bunks. It looks odd coming at you with that off set cab and big sleeper wall hanging out. Don't think it would be easy to get in and out of the bunk....he'll a r model with a 36" bunk can be a pain..

Saw sids rd and this valueliner owned by G&D....the valueliner got a new cab about 5 years ago

I used a standard steering wheel puller.. Has 2 or 3 jack screws...i would spray the splines with some PB blaster A day before to aid in pulling it... Some are stuck on tight...others slip right off... If you ever plan to remove it again use some anti seize on the splines when you install it..

Always thought the LTL and L cab long hood B models had that classy look to them. They just had that similar look of a high end automobile from the same period. They stood out among the rest. For the newer Mack's a western R model sure has nice lines to them.

Nice trucks Is your nick name " crash" ......LOL.......glad your still here to tell the stories.

I have the mack rear mount pto for my 6 speed...The Mack pto part numbers were in some of the service books that mack made for the service dept. it had info for everything from orings to internal parts .... IMHO the rear mount is the only way to go on the 6 speed or 12 speed... The rd I drive now has a side mount and it sucks...too much bs to operate for what it should be...

If its a glider kit it may be hard to decode as it may have been stamped by the state that it was built and titled in..?

I have been trying to get a pic of their value liner....it looks like a nice older r model...

Hope this tape proves he did the right thing and the car was in the wrong.. Let me guess ....did they impound the truck for inspection.?

I drove a 96' mid rise IH9400 eagle .double bunk. I ran in teams rarely as in a few times a year. I never felt we had lack of space. We kept our clothes bags on the floor and had 2 cubby holes for stuff we used. No tv or fridge just a small cooler we kept in the truck and a large cooler with the majority of drinks kept in the trailer. Running solo I kept the upper bunk up and out of the way. 10- 16 hrs driving then go to sleep for 8-10 . Well rested and do it again. Don't think I ever went anywhere in the u.s that kept me in the truck more than 3 nights in a row... If I hauled freight I would have wanted a fridge and tv but the bare big bunk worked well for me. Onthe otherhand Our hi rise IH had a fridge,tv and microwave ...I felt it was over cluttered running teams and lacked storage with all the stuff that belongs in a kitchen.

That's a good combo....if the rears are speced right it should be about a 68-75mph truck topped out. A lot of people don't like the Mack 9 speed but I liked them..

I agree....it's sad

Exactly...plan the hose route with the tank on the truck to make sure you have clearance for the driveshaft. Then just drain and remove tank, weld a threaded bung for your return line. Then run the hose up to your deck plate. Also some people choose to run a 1" feed and 1" return ....others use a 1" and 3/4" ...it really depends on what everyone does in your area..
