This is the truck I would buy to do your job. I recognize the chassis, it is a Michaels Construction truck. Short and stout with a good turn. Been for sale for one year, hot potatoed from Michaels auction to this dealer. They used it for pulling wire stock through off-road power line right-of-ways. Think they fit with 300AMI engines.

Chopped edges....hard lines

I really like the thing. Maybe my generation of kids who went nuts on Transformers will snatch'em up.

They are staying in trend with light automotive body preferences.

Buncha.

Stay low tech emissions and beat the system. $ 🐮 $

T200-300 transmission?

Seems like an entitlement war that Mack won with reputation, funny.

#1 Mack MP10@685HP

#5 Volvo D16@700HP

Volvo reads this article they will derate the MP10 to 665HP.

Packed pretty tight by the looks of it...

Thing packed solid, snapped the 3.5" rod AND bent the cylinder tube. Messy.

This was me in 1984. Thought I'd throw in the other photo I took 1986:..83 cruiseliner I used to own not a very good picture...bob

lol...bad ass ...I wouldn't have flicked you in the ear unless I had my running shoes on.

Mack part number 88800186 

Second time it came in, 30 days later, it became apparent...... Yup, that took some serious swinging to unpack.

Anybody looking for an operators position? Must be able to blow out chips.

The first time the rod snapped the machine came in chip free and clean as a whistle. Little head scratch....hmmm...maybe fatigue? It does have 25,000 hours?

Your guess is as good as mine FJH.

I use to think Mercedes was spooky. They mount high and stick the filter in a bullet proof canister.

Some of our off-road engines have multiple oil pumps so you can hold the engine nearly vertical (like a dozer climbing a coal pile) and still pick-up oil. Those machines use upside down spin-on (bottom facing upward from top of engine) with check valves in filter to hold oil during engine-off.

Seems like some engineers get a kick out of new ideas, even bad ones. Like plastic surge tanks.

You have the techs and specs on it? You install a mated top gear set you need some info on set-up. 

Dump the compartments, remove both wheel hubs, clean wheel bearings, pressure wash banjo, etc.

OTR performance makes a $90  boost dummy for testing. Good to buy and have. We had one at our shop made of a large pipe cap drilled and pipe tapped for a 1/4" air nipple. Put 10psi on it and find your boost leak.

Never see bad turbos from the box, they are too low tech. Unless you bought from some brand X, eBay, china firm. 

Mack also has an awesome universal boost circuit tester made for MP group. I use it on everything, even 13.5 liter John Deere with VGT. Stretch, but it fits. 

For turbo warranty a Mack shop would pull and disassemble every tube from air filter to engine intake and change air filter. Psi wash CMCAC. If turbo through-shaft breaks on failed turbo we pulled the oil pan to make sure shaft frags were not in basement. Drain or remove intake, I never had to pull an intake. I have pulled the exhaust pipes to find the impeller from blow-up. 

In Wisconsin we also hang the CMCAC so residual wash water can not collect and freeze crack the low rib of CMCAC core. 

Good luck.👍 

The movie only gets good after the fifth time you see it.

I brought it to deer camp one year and my brother got mad at me. Two years later He and my brother-in-law had bought a copy and began showing up at camp with Linenkugels.

Did you see the movie or widdle it down on google? 

NAILED IT 41!!!!!!!

potential hint......only place in North America you can see this much smoke coming out of a wood mill. Boiler start-up system must have a Mack E6 pony motor.
