There is a place in Latrobe that stores motorhomes, etc...but that is about 45 miles from you...I don't know of anywhere else.

Rear drum from a 1970 Mack M45 Dump Truck!

Wow! That is awesome! Post more pics of the trucks you have done! I wish I had patience to stuff like that!

Yes, there ae limits on the number of attachments you can add. If you reach your limits, you will need to go to your control panel and manage your attachments. I have also added new user groups to give members more global space based on post counts...see this link for more info: http://bigmacktrucks.invisionzone.com/inde...&st=0#entry1901 Don't forget about your Gallery! You can add photos there also! You can also use free photo hosting sites to attach pics or albums with out using any global space. If you have any questions, call me at 1-888-304-MACK

I have set up new user groups for members based on total number of posts. All changes are automatic and you don't have to do anything except post! Here is how it will work: 0-50 posts = Member (5mb Global Space) 50-100 posts= Special Member (6mb Global Space) 100-250 posts = Select Member (7mb Global Space) 250-500 posts = Premium Member (8mb Global Space) 500-Up posts = VIP Member (10mb Global Space) As you can see, the Global Space goes up for each member level. This is what lets you post more photos as attachments in your posts. In addition, Premium & VIP Members can delete their own posts, topics and edit titles! If you have already reached a new group level, the change will take place on your next post! Have fun and keep those topics coming!

Welcome to BMT! You came to the right place! We all love Macks (and all antique trucks for that matter!) Look forward to hearing from ya! Enjoy the forums...

Welcome to BMT! Glad you found us! We would love to see photos of your truck when you get a chance!

Nice lookin machine there! Looks almost like the Rubber Duck! As far as the engine, I would check all the exhaust gaskets and lock rings while it is out. Lot easier to work on exhaust when it is out of the truck.

Hi Bill! Welcome aboard! Glad you found us...There are lots of friendly, helpful folks here, so jump right in and enjoy! We sure would like to see some photos of your new truck, too.

Nice collection of photos! Gotta love fire trucks! Did you go to the fireman's parade a couple weeks ago in Greensburg? I didn't make it, but I heard there were tons of cool trucks there.

Welcome to BMT! Glad you joined up and we look forward to hearing from ya and seeing some pics of your trucks!

Hello and welcome to BMT! Glad you joined up! Here is some info I grabbed from www.oldmacksRus.com Chassis Versions What do all the letters mean? These are the basic letters used B - school bus chassis C - flat face cowl for the addition of a delivery body E - built for export F - fire truck chassis L - light weight or weight reduced by using aluminum components P - platform chassis (single axle straight truck) R - right hand drive. This designation was started in 1964 but right hand drive available prior as option. S - six wheel chassis (tandem axle) T - tractor chassis X - severe or extreme service chassis Combine any of the basic letters to get a different chassis PC - flat face cowl platform chassis LST - light weight six wheel tractor chassis SX - six wheel extreme service chassis STE - six wheel tractor chassis for export RX - right hand drive extreme service chassis These are some odd versions BD - school bus - no idea what the D means. Little more than 100 built 1955-1956 EWX - don’t have a clue on the letters but the picture shows a mean looking B83 built in 1965 with 3 drive axles SX-C - six wheel extreme service chassis, may have been built in Canada SX-M - six wheel extreme service chassis, no idea what M stands for T-HS - tractor, don’t know about HS T-M - tractor, don’t know about M TPB - tractor piggy back Now the fire truck combinations! The good guys at the Mack Museum and Harvey Eckart had to do some “head scratchin” on these CF - fire truck with Chrysler Corp. drive train FA - aerial ladder fire truck FC - fire truck chassis without fire body. This designation started in 1965 FCD - fire truck chassis with diesel engine without fire body FD - fire truck with diesel engine. This designation started in 1964 FMD - don’t have a clue. Only built in 1963 FSW - six wheel (tandem axle) fire truck. This designation started in 1958 for fire trucks but had been used in trucks prior to the B model series. FT - fire truck tractor. This designation started in 1965 but fire truck tractors were also built before this date. Hope this helps!

Awesome photos! Thanks for posting them!

I just started a webshots album to hold all the photos we take at truck shows. Here is the link if you would like to check them out. I will be adding the photos I take at Lititz here also. Enjoy... http://community.webshots.com/user/wattsmack

Here are a couple pics of a new stock truck! We had a Trail King (Ti Brook) Aluminum body put on it. I gotta say, they were kinda ugly as a cab/chassis...but with a body on, they don't look tooooo awful bad! What do you guys think?

WOW! That is a tough decesion! Glad I don't have to make it! LOL With that said, I would probally go through with the trade...like you said, this may be the only chance to get a truck like that. BTW...we are gonna need some photos! Good luck with your decision!

Here is a quick tutorial on how to post photos into your gallery albums. Look for the arrow cursor on the screen shots to show you where to click. The gallery controls are located in your control panel. In your control panel, click on 'Your Albums' This will open up the gallery controls. At the bottom of the box, click 'Create Album' and a window will open asking you to name and describe the album. After you name it, a window will open with a drop down box on the right. Choose 'upload photos' Then a screen similar to the posting screen will open...you can add a title and description to your photo, and then at the bottom, browse for the photo saved on your computer. When you are done, click 'post photo' and you are done...ready for the next photo! You can expirement with the other functions in the drop down box such as delete (incase you make a mistake) You can also create multiple albums if you like, or just keep adding your pics in the first album you created. If you have any problems, call me toll free at: 1-888-304-MACK 6am-6pm est and I will help guide you through it! Or you can Instant Messege me with MSN Messenger at: wattsmack@hotmail.com

Alot of R-Mods had the tow loops built right into the front spring hangers...check and see if they are there. If so, you may just need a bumper extender or a bumper with holes in it.
