    I had to find the auction listing for this and see more pictures. https://www.auctiontime.com/listings/trucks/auctions/online/222288491/1971-mack-rl700l I'm almost certain it's a Hayward mack and has an aluminum frame and doors. Also is see a 13 speed shifter plus another stick. Is there a brownie behind it?

    No affiliation, this thing is ugly right now but it looks immaculate. Been on marketplace a couple weeks anyway. I can look at it May 6 if someone is interested. https://m.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1349935329127151/ 350 9 speed 4.42 rears cab and chassis $21500

    No affiliation though I'm probably buying the hood. https://m.facebook.com/marketplace/item/620173646630626/ E6-350, 12 speed, 58 rears, 20 front. If anyone is interested in anything I'd be glad to look at it for them if I go out to get the hood.

    In 73 they started coming out with a cab that was 3" longer behind the doors. Around here the old cabs all rotted away years ago. The short grab handles are a dead giveaway. That truck should have a steel dash and the parking brake valves mounted on the back wall between the seats. They're really neat and you seldom see them anymore.

    Looks pretty much original and unmolested with the pre plus 3 cab still intact. Just wonder if someone did in fact put a big cam in it as they weren't yet produced in '71.

    I'd say it once was an exhaust brake and if the truck has an engine brake I'd definitely get rid of it. Otherwise how much time and money do you want to spend trying to fix it? It looks like it's in a difficult to access location too.

    The big green service manuals from that vintage covered all the truck models. They are often online. I have a bunch of you need to know anything in particular. Operator and parts manuals are much more scarce.

    MACKS, I was implying 80k gross as if this is a tractor with semitrailer. Certainly not on the truck alone.

    Similar concept to a mack taperleaf suspension. They ride quite well but some people say they're too weak. If you're grossing 80k max and not pounding the sh!t out of it they might do well. My family had 2 with taperleaf doing dry bulk and they did fine and both trucks I have now are taperleaf.

    I've never heard em called Twinkies Jojo! Here's a picture just to make things clear lol

    Have you checked with trovei? I haven't seen those wheels in a while.

    I've seen plenty of reproductions of Eaton fullers but none for mack. Your best bet might be to have one made by a sign shop from a photograph of a good one. I'll see what mine looks like and try to get a picture of its decent

    It's an unfortunate big expense to the maintenance of a camelback Bill. With all the issues you're having added up the springs and bushings are likely shot. The left side leaves shifted could be just a u bolt defect, but the right side shifting is a good indication of bigger problems. Rebushing the trunnions and replacing the elephant pads would probably be short lived as the ends of the spring are probably worn out.

    It looks to be 0 premium which is pretty surprising with many companies up to 13 percent now and not many having a cap.

    SOLD.... $68,000.... Wow!
  16. Hans Remmers
    I'm wondering the same thing.

    I don't know when gold dogs were used for maxidynes and when for all mack power train. My 84 mh is a maxidyne and all mack and it still has a silver dog.

    1985 Mack RW600 Superliner semi | Commercial Trucks Truck Tractors Sleeper Trucks | Online Auctions | Proxibid Already bid to $30k, strong bidding for one so seriously weathered. It looks as straight and solid as can be but sure has been left neglected for a long time. I'm just curious to see how high the numbers go.
  19. Hans Remmers
    Someone must've wanted it for something, but not me. That old bone cable sheave Holmes and 58 rears with a 5 speed I bet that things a real treat to drive and operate.

    Happy birthday Vlad!

    Note the open exhaust at the turbo lol
  22. Hans Remmers
    I buy from that auction house quite a bit but certainly wouldn't bid on that mutant. I don't even know how they made an RB hood fit on there.
  23. Hans Remmers
    New replacement bottom and side pieces are supposed to be available at Watts soon.
