Does anyone have a driverside rocker panel theyd be willing to part with? This truck was used for salt before we got it...

Hydraulic pump and pto.

Looks are... meh. Maybe itll grow on me, but im still working RD's and an MR.

Single stick, i wish it was a twin stick. Multi speed reverse is great for our application. This mixer gets a 2 section hydraulic pump running off a pto on the rear of one of the countershafts. Its tucked in real neatly between the driveshaft and the left frame rail's lower flange. Hydraulic tank goes on the left side of the mixer, and 2 suction lines will loop around over top of the left frame rail into the top of the pump, while the two pressure lines will come out the bottom of the pump and come under the frame rails and back up to run along the left side of the mixer to the control valves at the back.

A few of the pictures wont upload, but you get the idea...

Title says it. 1988 RD690ST project. Truck needs very little, it was a Locust Ridge H&K truck we bought a number of years ago. Cab was green when we got it, we painted it white and its been sitting long enough to grow some... patina. They put new frame rails in it and im guessing rebuilt the engine not too long before we got it because you touch the key and it fires up and perks along nicely. EM6-300L with a 7 speed Mack transmission. Currently were working on renovating one of our old mixers to for this truck.

Contemplating buying back my 2001 RD daycab, and maybe putting a sleeper berth on it. Anyone done it? Whats the smallest berth legal?

Theres a tag on the back of one that says $0.89.... TBH I have no interest in $$, just understand theyre the sort of thing that is hard to come by. They're yours.

I found some emblems for an R190 series international diesel while cleaning garage. Anyone want them?

Does the truck have the Step 12b software update? I think this update fixed some throttle response issues. Joey is referring to basically the EGR system delete on the ASET AI motors. They use restrictive exhaust manifold and turbo to create back pressure to feed exhaust back into the engine when an extra bump on the exhaust camshaft lobes open the exhaust valves on intake stroke. Replacing the manifold and turbo with pre-ASET parts effectively deletes the camshaft egr function.

You are correct, but hes working with what appears to be a remote oil filter system, which I'm unfamiliar with. The size of the oil pan also plays a role in ESI/ESI+. The. ESI+ is 56 quarts, the ESI i think is in the 36 quart range

Im not sure that you have an ESI engine. Your block is different from all of my ESI and ESI+ engines. I dont have the piece with the green masking tape on it in your pictures. Most of my ENDT engines have spin on filters, but I do have one with a different filter set up with hoses running weird places, much like I suspect you have there. I haven't looked at it to compare the block on that engine to yours. Can't upload pictures for some reason.

I think youre going to be into an ASET AC engine with egr crap on it. How heavy are you talking? Its only a 12 liter engine, so it lacks a certain torque found in other brands.

You low on fluid? Where are you operating? We were in 90° temps, now we have 70°s.
