    I think She'd be Barely Legal.. Otherdog.. Those old 300's were a good Motor. Dad had one in a F700. It got a bit Tired so he put a 351 in It. . All he gained was the V8 Burble.. Didn't seem to Go all that much Harder...

    My Monies on It being a BITZA built by a Retired Truck Driver... Most likely a Mack Chassis & running Gear with the Camper Body Grafted onto It.. But just a W.A.G. on My part..

    I beg to Differ. The Country I've spent the last 56 (plus) Years growing up In, & My Family has many generations of Living here .Bears No resemblance to the Nazi Germany i learnt about at School & still Hear & read about.. None... Media Organizations the World Over are absolute Experts at Cherry picking, & Selective editing things to suit Any Narrative they Want..!! Don't believe everything the Press Tells You.....

    I've Broken Most Things, But Never an Axle..💥 Most Common Way to remove them I know is to; Slide a bit of Polythene or PVC pipe/Tube in over the Broken Bit & get your stick welder with a bit of heavy Wire or Light Rod & stick It to the Broken Bit & pull out.. or a Strong magnet on a Rod or a broom handle & pull It Out through the PVC/ Poly... @Mark T We're Talking about 44,000 LB Mack axles Not Braking.. Not Axles in general..

    No the Midliner is Renault. . However they used the Club of 4 Cab which was shared by Volvo Daf, Magirus & Renault.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club_of_Four

    All Good Redhorse.. If All your Wheel Studs are the same length, & Nuts identical. You Can get it Damn Close just by having the same number of Threads sticking through each of the Nuts..

    Too True Paul, I've done It at 2.00am with a Torch in my Mouth (Pre head torch days) & got them to within a couple of Bee's Dicks..

    I'm with You tjc.. As far as I'm Concerned, Its nothing but an Urban Myth.. When hauling machinery/Equipment, I always ask the Customer if they would like the exhaust covered or Not. (purely as Professional courtesy) I can Honestly say that I don't know of a Turbo Failure caused by this..

    The whole thing'd be overweight... A bare D7G weighs 44,600lbs add the Scrub Canopy & Blade . You're at 50,000lbs (or more) They'd be Grossing at least 135,000lbs I would Think..

    2 D7G's Melbourne to Brisbane, Bit over a 1,000 Miles.. The Blades are on the Floor between the Tracks..

    Vlad is correct Brocky..Mack Australia used the R Model chassis for everything.. Vlad, I own one of those COE Magnums. They came into the country as Glider Kits. Cab, Chassis & Front Axle.& were fitted with the entire Drivetrain Here. It has the euro 335pcd Wheels all round.. The Quantums were a little bit Different. The early Ones came in as Glider Kits, & were quite problematic. the Later ones were CH Chassis fitted with the Quantum Cab, & where a far better Truck by All accounts.. Pretty sure there's a Thread (or 2-3) here about them..
