  1. Back in the 90's just went through customs at the Dunseith crossing its all down hill into Dunseith ND. Was rolling about 65 in a 55 when I met a trooper it was so cold his lights just came on but would'nt rotate. I pulled over anyway knew he had me but when he came up to the truck he thanked me for stopping. He said seeing as how I stopped without the lights rotating he'd just give me a warning. Guess it was my lucky day.

  2. Hi I had a 3406B in a 1989 freightliner oil samples came back high in copper. Cat dealer could'nt figure it out and about the same time I noticed my oil pressure down about 5 lbs. Finally after much disscusion with cat they agreed to do a bearing roll in. When they had the pan off they found the bushings shot in the oil pump. So rebuilt oil pump and my problem was solved. Not sure if this will be your problem but I 'd check the pump out.

  3. Hi when I bought my Rawhide the last owner had just put on one new Ohtsu. I bought another to match them up and they only lasted approx. 50000 miles. I think that for a hobby truck or a part time runner they'd be fine but for a steady over the road tire I'd buy either Mich. or BF's.

  4. Hi just going to add my 2 cents with my limited knowledge. I've owned 5 Macks through the years and drove several others with very little engine problems. The one thing I would make available on the over the road trucks would be more power and torque as with the 460's I've struggled with our higher Canadian weights. I'm hoping with the new MP engines this will be changed.

  5. Hi I have a 2007 CHN with a 460 18 spd trans 370 rears on 22.5 rubber. I pull a 53 ft tri axle cattle liner grossing out at 101000 pounds average about 5.5 Forgot to mention I drive about 63 mph
