thank you bobo

So...Nobodys ever had to replace the starter on their E9?

If you want lower LOW, get your 13spd back box rebuilt into a 18spd. Your low/low will now be 14.4 and still have a low of 12.3 bobo

Um actually the back box is the same on a 13/18 speed, the difference is the fact that you "can't" use deep reduction in low range to get the 14.40. However you can swap the shifter or just pop the plastic stop out of the 13 speed shifter to select deep reduction in low range giving the same low gear. However in an Eaton the gears and bearings in the front box in low range are different than those in an 18 speed,they're bigger for more torque capacity.

NO, The difference between an eaton 13 and the 18 is in the back end, the 18 has a much larger bearing on the overdrive gear, The 13 depending on the age actual has no bearing on the overdrive gear ONLY on a mack tranny can you "just pop the plastic stop out" you can just change the splitter valve and shifter handle on the eaton but it wont last long because of the missing bearing bobo

Do you mean all the story including towing and repairs cost $25826 ??

Looks a great amount to me, hope I just haven't understood something...

vlad i had to pay 5000$+hst(tax) the total with towing was 25800$(insurance) b0bo

hood(painted and dressed), fender mirror, repaint drivers door, new door stickers, tire & rim, spindle, oil cap, new bearings, drum, bumper, head light(led) & light pot, cowel panel, battery box & cover, batteries, fuel tank, aligment, towing and clean up! bob0

Never mind the mess behind the overhead! the cardboard cut out is the template for the extra brackets i made to carry the extra weight. you can see extra holes (pics #2,#5) i riveted the plates to existing roof brackets and and spot weld lip where roof is attached.

It took quite awhile to remold the the console, i cut it out and flipped it. but now i can see the radio screen! I also added metal strips to stiffen the mounting ledge then went over it with fiber glass, the sanded the console smooth. BOBO

still waithing on hood! Mack Canada cant seem to find one? at least insurance came good for the tire! with the tow just shy of $30g. bobo

UMMM....Somethings missing? Where's the dogs?!

nice truck, how long from start to finish? are you working it or just hobby?

Thanks 2 years and she will be working! bobo

By the word I feel myself as Canada-related because my R's made in the maple leaf country.

Although if anybody could clear me up a bit of what the Canada day is it would be nice.

Happy day to all the Canadians!

Vald Canada day celebrates the start of Canada's independence from Britain.

je me souvien-bring me souviniers

haha good one EH! bobo

i got 5 (led) from I80, for the center light, I cut it down with hack saw to same lenght as stock. It had a flat rib in same spot, painted it with some chrome paint and then clear coated. On the roof and you cant notice the difference till they light up! bobo

my bad your right 4.35 202/203 is what i have. no im not really looking for speed but rpm drop.my next step would be 3.94? i wouldnt be upset if i had to change it eatons. im a little dumb when it comes to diff's

would it be worth it to change out my 4.33 to 4.17? '00 Rb 460 18 eaton. the rears are on hendrickson rubber block. my Rw has 4.42(camelback), if i could I'd put the 4.33 in it. any help is appreciated. try to decide to buy new truck or spend some momey on old Rb? Bobo

save your self the trouble...just use red "long life" coolant bobo
