How much fuel does a Caterpillar ARD head eat?
Hobert62 replied to Mack Technician's topic in Engine and Transmission
I'm glad someone out there thinks wasting 3600 gallons of fuel is a great idea. I just don't know who. -

My dads 2000 w900 with a signature isx has no emissions including an egr. -
That picture sitting there is so neat and clean it makes it look like a detailed model staged for a picture and not a real truck.

Happy b-day. Hopefully see ya Saturday.

Ok 30. Its the place I was thinking of. I've went by it since I've been little on our way to the beach on vacation. Thanks

I'd Fire up the old stick welder and burn the cam back together. If you can get to it, keep it in the block so its held straight by the bearings.

Bought two today
Hobert62 replied to Truck Shop's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Ill take this one if you need to make a parking spot.

Thanks. Vlad, I do see some rust on that one now. Watts sells ones I thought where stainless, expensive but prob worth it.

VIN # tags for door on R Model
Hobert62 replied to Dougsr's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Watt's has blank ones listed in the B model section. I don't know it R's are same or not

I'd be happy with the stainless hood latches on the 4th one.

If you mean at macungie I'll try to remember. Better yet I'm just gonna tell my kids, that way they remember. Only problem with noon is im going to be looking for a smoker cooking away by the fire trucks.

Econodyne emblem
Hobert62 replied to Hobert62's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I think the truck was an 87. I got the letters off the front and one mack script off the side. They are all plastic, I just expected them to be metal. Both the Mack's have the chrome wore off and have a green appearance. I figured I could make a plaque to hang on the wall out of them. If anyone needs the Econodyne I can stick it in my pocket at macungie. -
I got an Econodyne emblem off of a R model today that's in really nice shape. My surprise is its plastic, it has mack and part #'s on the back of it just expected it to be metal. Where the badges switched plastic when the B went away?

Noisy PTO rattle with MP8's and Allison Auto
Hobert62 replied to Deere Mack's topic in Engine and Transmission
Could you get a length of rubber gas line and run the cable through? It won't eliminate the direct connection between the control lever and pto but may buffer the sound some. Just a late night idea. -
Was it windy? Working air ride cab around when parked?
-
The 3rd one looks more like mine.

I saw a bunch of busses in the parking lot at the Hershey antique car museum last week. Looked like there was a bunch there.

The conventional cab Scania T Series – Past and present
Hobert62 replied to kscarbel2's topic in Other Truck Makes
Is there a reason to do this or just a good picture?
-
Looks like a superliner bunk in the background.
-
Thanks it's the original "to the time anyway" 673 non turbo mack Mine being a b67 the motor leans to the right and is shoved back into the cab due to a 7" shorter hood. I bought it knowing very little about B models other then I like them. If mine would have the standard length hood and the engine standing straight up and down I'd prob look into sticking a 8.3 cummins in it.
-
Any specifics for a sleeper? I never know what my scrapper buddies bring home. Big, little, tall, flat, square, or rounded corners?

I put a single axle airliner air ride from a freightliner under my B and it drives and rides very nice. Mines a 4.30 gear ratio with my diesel and dueplex it maxes out at 65mph at 2300rpm with 12r 22.5 drive tires. Drives nice bobtailing but can definatly tell when it's loaded. You air ride should only take 1 airline to supply it going to the leveling valve then tee-ing off to each air bag.
