  1. The liners are glued in with urethane. You won't remove them without tearing them up. I've repaired small dents in 379's fenders by using some filler, primer, and blending the paint/repainting entire fender. No easy way around it. I've repaired large dents and twists on 388's by replacing/painting a new fender, gluing in a new liner, and re-hucking it back on.
  2. The price seems a little steep for the condition some things. That truck hasn't had a rear crossmember forever or so it looks like. Just when you think you've seen everything.... Otherwise it has nice potential
  3. Frames look similar to a GU from what I can gather. . I just worked on an 06 model year CTP with a red motor mp7 04 emissions.
  4. "Why" does it matter? Because it's different. How cares? As long as it's clean and done nice that's what matters.
  5. Check your tires for balance. Check the entire driveline. Check all the suspensions and components.
  6. The 7th injector hasn't been replaced. It still places fuel in the exhaust to regen the dpf. The SCR aftertreatment is downstream from the DPF lower the NOx emissions even more.http://volvoscr.com/default.aspx?pageid=3362
  7. The old "torpedo" style is longer than the newer torpedo style.
  8. I doubt it. The manifold has to be custom or one off. The MP10 turbo is gigantic compared to a MP8. I think this truck is a good move to show off the Mack Brand.
  9. Pretty impressive for a 13L. Do you know what's all done it? It isn't the new common rail is it? What trans is in it? I think if this cab option were in production it would be a good fit for municipalities and fire/rescues. Attached are an additional picture of it and an explanation of it. I guess Volvo is investing in a modernization of Macgunie and changing the name to Lehigh Valley Operations (LVO). Guess this is just another death nail for the "Old Mack"
  10. Check your driveline for wear or play and check your tires. I had a Freightliner FL70 box truck do the same thing. It was the drive tires out of balance. I jacked it up and spun the wheels slowly. The wheel went back the opposite way I spun it. I put a couple balance bags in the the tires and it made it for away.
  11. Posted to a Facebook group. Is this suppose to compete with international for municipal jobs or is this a one off type thing? Pretty cool considering it's different doors on the back of it.
  12. Two different twos for swedging (installing) cups. One for copper cups and one for stainless. Stainless are the replacement and current production. I'm curious to see common rail setup I keep hearing about.
  13. Cups come with the injector kit. Change them when you change the injectors cause they are usually messed up from the injector "walking" around in the cup
  14. I have a 237 flywheel if you would like to borrow it. Also have a almost new clutch
  15. Beautiful truck in pictures and in real life! I wish I has and extra 45k sitting around
  16. http://www.macktruckshistoricalmuseum.org 2402 Lehigh Parkway South Allentown, PA 18103 Telephone: 610-351-8999 Email: mack.museum@macktrucks.com They should be able to help out.
  17. Feather edge the clear as best as you can and apply very thin coats of whatever you choose. When you have a hard line and put a thick coat of something over top of it it tends to lift and crinkle. The solvents in the top coat eat the old finish. Multiple Very thin coats would be the way to go. You could always get the bulldog remade and then sand/strip the entire facedown to the veneer, re apply new bulldog, then top coat.
  18. MEK steer very clear of. Like 41 said. Anything with ketones are bad for you. I used kerosene for the longest time or clean fuel works good to.
  19. Full fenders-low boy, 1/2 fenders-dry bulk or dump, 1/4 fenders box or flatbed trailer. When setting up check suspension articulation and fifth wheel height
  20. I always thought those "pregnant roller skates" we're pretty cool.
