where is it located?

welcome!

looking to buy a rust free cab for a 88 mack dm690sx. would prefer it to be a complete cab with the dash assembly intact. Any one that has one or any guidance to where one could be obtained would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

i think i am going to try and make one out of diamond plate aluminum and mount it to the the pedestal with the dump body controls

messaged you fullfuel

Any ideas for putting a good looking cup holder in an r model cab?

is the air throttle reliable? seems like it could be a lot more finicky then a cable.

Did the e9 always have an air throttle?

What year did Mack come out with the e9 and what was the v8 prior to it?

some were worm drive from the factory(most of the ones I have seen) and some were chain driven.

I know this is an old post but red dot make a factory like under dash unit

I have a dm690sx that is a 300 with a 5 speed. Would that make sense?

What is an rd690?

I am just going by what the guy told me when I called. What is the difference between a 300+ and a 300? I thought it had to do with rpm

with 120,000 miles in 30 years, it had a lot of days off from work. The guy told me its a 6 speed 2 stick with 300 plus, 58,000 rears 18,000 front, 12ft behind the cab, on 11.00r22 rubber. It worked pulling that summit demo trailer in NYC so that is why it is short. I am not sure when Mack came out with the rd688sx with a 350 and a 12 speed, but the 300 with a 6 seems to me that it would be under powered out of the city.

wow, sure is a nice truck!!

Saw that Superliner at the Bolton Fairgrounds show. Sure is a beauty! Is it a v8?

All I am saying is that if it were an rd688sx with a 350 and a 12 speed and 14ft behind the cab sitting on 11.00r24 or 12.00r24 I could see paying that kind of money for it, but that is just me.

and the fellow is only looking for a mere $35,000

Heavy spec, but short framed. 12 ft behind the cab. 11.00x22 rubber

I believe they have an identical rd 686 that only has 22,000 miles. It is for sale "FOR THE RIGHT PRICE"

Good stuff, would that cummins have been a wet sleeve?

does anyone know if what kind of shape the trucks are in? Did this fellow have them running or have they sat for years? I like that red lj-swx

It seems most of them i see have a cummins, was that the popular engine?
