Aren't we funny! If you want a lady, post a separate thread. Don't bastardize my post! And wonder why I don't frequent BMT!

I will not be able to remove it to use as a pattern since I will be driving the MH to shows this summer. If by winter I still do not have one, I can remove it then.

Seeking a 2003 or older CH612 in very nice original cosmetic and mechanical condition. Rust free cab. Original paint. Minimum 300 HP. Engine brake a plus. 10 speed manual Mack or Eaton transmission. Air bag rear suspension. A/C. Dual aluminum fuel tanks. Maintenance history nice to have. Current DOT inspection (good brakes and matching rear tires). Any color other than black. Send details with asking price to mhrollhauler612 at outlook dot com. Thanks!

Geoff, Thanks for the information. I am not a fabricator but it sounds easy. The MH guide is similar to one you pictured. I do not know anyone local that can make the part. I requested a print from the Mack Museum and then I will search for a fabricator. Thanks again!

The dipstick guide tube is rusty and broke at the outer support. The guide PN is 715GB530M and NLA from Mack and no dealers show any stock. Seeking a decent guide. Send me an email at mhrollhauler612 at outlook dot com if you have one or know of one for sale. I plan to be at Macungie. Thanks!

Thanks for the input. I decided to dismiss the idea of buying a Pro-link setup. I mainly wanted the system to check and reset the low idle and road speed. The extra diagnostic features are "nice to have". But for the money I will pay Watt's to check/reset the features. Hopefully less than a Pro-link system. I did find a free software program from Diesel Laptops but the cable to connect the vehicle to my computer is over $800. I will pass.

I learned the 804011 (V6.2) is an updated card compared to the 801111 (V6.10). Will either card work for V-Mac I and II? Has anyone used the Nexiq Pro-Link Graphiq? If so, thoughts compared to the Pro-Link Plus? Again, thanks for your input.

I have a chance to purchase a card for the V-Mac III. The card number is 801111. I saw cards with PN 804011. Which is the correct card or are both the same? Will this card work with all V-Mac III engines (199x-2003)? I don't know what years used the III. TIA

Thanks Bob for the heads up. I found a used lamp MANY years ago. I gave up looking for a backup (new or used). Looking at the pic from Walmart, it is not even close to either the early or later lamp. The one posted by @BottleHauler84may be correct but too fuzzy to see any detail. Perhaps you can get a better image. My concern would be the wiring and connections. I am not a fan of "modifications" but I guess something is better than nothing. Thanks to both for your research and updates.

I am "guessing" the MH642/3 were Detroit engines? Anyone know for sure?

MH653 - Caterpillar 6x2 - single drive axle 6x3 - tandem drive axles A MH652 would be a Caterpillar powered single axle. Here is the link to a YT video explaining the differences in the CAT 3400 family engines.

I would say it is an optical illusion. The diamond plate fenders hide the tire (top and front). If you look at the distance from the rim to the ground it looks the same. The front "drive" axle is not a tag axle so the tires should be the same size.

Still looking. Added windshields.
