I figured the 338 would be kilowats and not hp
-
no they made a EM6 225L as a replacement it did not have any chasie or engine mounted aftercooler. Don't think it was that common of a motor to spec 300 maxidyne was more common by the late 80s
-
no frame is lighter and 14.6k is the heaviest front axle I belive you can get on a pinnicale but you can get heavy rears. slap on a set of beefy front springs and you could make a heavy truck out of one though
-
did not know they put a 12speed behind a maxidyne motor
-
if he goes bigger injectors and twists the pump wouldn't he end up with a 350hp or so maxydine?
-
low range on the trans was mostly for creeping off road and curb side pouring in a cement truck you'll need the top 5 every time but the bottom 3 depends what you doing with the truck bet its at least for 5.73 gears in it

Heavy Haul Serei Dratchev

exactly but he knows everything, I keep watching him spec super heavy specs to move 50 and 60k lb machines -
it might have started life a just a company freight truck
-
pinion shaft failure and exiting the side of the housing no air ride pavement princess
-
I would go with a Manual e7 they are performers
-
yeah the one i had was heavy spec 44lk camleback 14,600 front
-
they made a ch 713 with the longer hood of a cl on it you could make one fit in one of those
-
I've seen Mack chunks fail in on road applications never overloaded either. Unheard of back in the day I don't know whose building the rears for Mack now but they need to go back to the drawing board.
-
nope and why would you ever want to do that
-
shop labor rates killed the camelback its a excellent suspension until you pay $100 a hr to replace the bushings or a cracked trunion. The T ride is alot easier to work on with just as good articulation
