Well, they share the same block, but the injectors, turbo, pump and maybe the pistons are different in order to produce a bit more horsepower over the 675 (237). Most gaskets, etc...are interchangable between a 237 & 250...

I've seen people weld upper spring seats to the rear housing to adapt air ride, but I am not sure what suspension they were using...but it can be done.

Awesome...those will work. I am waiting for a guy to call me back from alcoa. I also called Accuride for a quote. So out of 2 companies, maybe we can get something happening. Inital numbers are looking like a minimum buy of 500 pieces no mix and match so we may have to settle on 22.5 only.

Doug, I did get the email and it looks pretty promising. Do you or anyone have a photo of what the wheels should look like? Just so I can confirm they are talking about the right thing? Post here or email it to: wmsi@alltel.net and we'll see what we can get going!

Welcome Jay! Welcome to the BMT Forum...Hope you enjoy!

The gallery will only accept several types of file extensions...jpg, jpeg, gif...etc. You should be able to change your image to jpg when you import it from your scanner...that would be the best bet. If not email the photos to me and I will convert them to jpg for you! wmsi@alltel.net

Yes, that is a good idea! I can make sticky topics here too. I will work on some topics for this or anyone here is welcome to start a topic that they would like to see become sticky!

Hi Bill! Glad you made it over to the new boards! This is the place to be if you like old Mack Trucks!

Welcome to to BMT! Sounds like your looking at a U685ST (U-Model) also sounds like you will need to do an overhaul on that engine if it is using that much oil! I looked up your vin and it call for an ENDT675 so that is good...parts are available aand not tooooo expensive. Like Trent said, you will need to verify the engine stamping because an old truck can have alot of stuff changed through the years!

Very Nice! Looks like you got a good truck to start with! Welcome to the forums!

This is the place to do it! Other forums call it a "Group Buy." Alot of manufactures are anxious to accept group buys from online forums because of the volume they can sell...so go for it! If you need any help, let me know!!

I finally got my home computer to access the chat room, but I had to download Firefox browser to do it. If you cant access the chat and have tried downloading the Sun Microsystems Jave stuff, and still no chat...try Firefox! It is free and easy to download. Just goto www.getfirefox.com and follow the directions. Worked for me! 2 things I noticed though, 1) when downloading, chose NO to import your other browser's bookmarks/favorites and 2) after you download, always chose NO when you open firefox and it asks you to make firefox your default browser (unless you really like firefox and want it to be your default) Firefox is a free alternative to IE and Netscape browsers. I stick with IE, but I use Firefox as a secondary browser because it don't seem to be affected by all the stuff the others are.

Hi Frank! Welcome to the forums! The nice thing about this format is you can use it simple or take advantage of all the bells and whistles. It is designed for a guy to be able to register and start posting right away or if you are a bit more computer savy, you can play around with all the features and add your own personal touch. One thing I can't stress enough is to use the "My Assistant" link! You will never miss a post if you click "My Assistant" everytime you visit! Hope you enjoy... Barry
