Hey folks, I have been working in Michigan and vacationing in Montana! Yaaa. Anyway the splits between gears are too wide for bigger loads, even here in the flatlands of Minnesota with a pod trailer. So I was asking if a mack 18speed would work for me. I still need the lowholes. But never drive over 65mph. Thanks Ray

Hello all, I have a Rd 600 with a T2080. 5.05 rears. Is there a transmission with a large overdrive and more road gears. I work off road with a tree spade and pod trailer. Thanks Ray

50k miles. asking $9500. it sure looks like a factory single axle. vin # must be wrong. -
Hey guys , im looking at a R685ST25840 at a dealer in Holland Mi. they are saying 50k. 2 stick, 237 non turbo. Do i have to go to a dealer to find how this truck was built? how many speeds in trans and rear axle ratio? thanks ray

raybing replied to raybing's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
thanks all, i went to see the rs700l saturday. the good part, its all original, the bad, foor rust, back of cab, pretty much needs restoration. i have learned my lesson on rust so am not interested, anyone else want it? they are asking $4500. maybe worth $2000. ray -
hey guys, im going to look at a 1975 RS700L tomorow for sale. 300k. the original owner say twin stick, not sure of engine. says rust on floor and back of cab. what is the difference from say a rd600? was this called a western style? is it collectable? thanks ray

did you get someone to look at it? ray

i want to replace my air ride single axle on my "evil' volvo fe42 tree spade truck with locking spring ride axle. its too mushy and wanders. i tried helpers to no avail. i would like 3.7 ratio. oh heres another request . today at an auction i bought a 1953 chev 4400 grain truck with 12k miles. all original. does anyone know of a 2 speed rear for it? thanks ray
-
why split gears? the t2080 has 3 off road gears which i need. so that leaves only 5 for the highway. because such a large gap when shifting especially 7 to 8th. actually the top gear is .6 overdrive. ray

ok thanks brian, is the 1241 made by mack?
-
hey, dont want to go faster , want to split gears. and dont want to lose off road gears. $5000 for 1241? what is 1241? ignorant cuss i am.

Does anyone have an auxillary transmission for my RD with em7 and t2080 trans? thanks ray
-
oh, a 4 sp aux is not a quad box. yes a 5sp auto with aux trans would be welcome. jamming gears off road to move inches when digging trees is a pain. ray
-
thanks for info so far, 5.03 rears runs nice up to 65 mph, thats plenty fast for top heavy tree spade. it needs the 3 low hole speeds off road or simular. rpm's pulls to 1600-1800 nicely major drop between road gears, annoying. has .6 overdrive
-
hmmmm, thats why i ask questions. i drove an r model with 5sp auto and quad box last week that gave me the idea. maybe 13 or 18 speed? how much overdrive do they have? ray

hello all, am looking to add speeds for my em7 with t2080 trans. am green on quad specs. call ray at 612-709-1397

Aux transmission for 98 r600 em7 with 2080 trans.?
raybing posted a topic in Engine and Transmission
Hey guys, I need advice on getting more speeds for my mack em7 300 hp with 8 speed. It has 5.03 rears. My understanding is that the 2080 trans has 40% OD. I have a 85" tree spade and the 3 low grears work great off road. On road it is basically a 5 speed. I am adding a pod trailer this week and would like more gears or more POWER, haha. Could a quad box help? Thanks Ray -

history? miles? repairs needed? cab to axle? thanks ray

Ok, Finally got it off. Kind of sick mack puzzle. I definately need a repair manual to save time and energy. Hopefully I will be able to get the gear in the right place and time the thing, with the secret plug and rotating cog. Ha. The dealer warned me not to do it myself, said I would need an A-B timing light. Oh well a person never learned without mistakes. Thanks again ray

I printed your directions and will try this morning. thanks oh ya 91 300hp. ray

It is a 4 valve em7.
