Are you checking all the boxes?

Cummins L10 (actually 9L displacement) was introduced in 1982. The L10 was replaced by the M11 in 1994. The Mack E7 engine (12L) had a similar design to the L10 with mid-stop liners.

Interesting dash. I would try to keep it original with the tach-o-graph. But as they say "it is your truck."

Send a note to Don S at the Museum and ask for a copy of the build sheet. He will likely send you a PDF. Or just ask what engine was installed at the factory.

Paul, Interesting information. Talk about a blind squirrel getting lucky. I agree....don't modify.

Mike, Try getting the VIN and have your dealer check the specs.

My MH is single axle with spring rear suspension. It is like riding a bucking bronco without a trailer. The air ride seat helps "tame" the ride. If I put anything in the sleeper it needs to be secured otherwise it will be on the floor. My trailer is a 28' drop van with single axle air ride. With the trailer connected and very little weight in the trailer, the MH does not "bounce" around. I like the way it handles and rides. I have a several stacks of furniture blankets and a small storage trunk in the trailer. The items don't move around the trailer. The added weight of the trailer on the fifth wheel helps improve the ride too. I never pulled a spring suspension trailer with the MH but I would recommend an air ride trailer based on my experience.

AC had some great products. AC was the first farm tractor with a turbo. My only complaint with the tractors (WC/CA thru 190/210) was the lack of a "true" live PTO. The transmission disconnect was their answer until later tractors (6000 series IIRC).

Jim, If you wait long enough they will be in style. I still have my white belt but I think I disposed of my leisure suit and white shoes...

Thanks Whiskey! Now for the $$$$ question....where were these pictures taken? Anyone recognize any of the people? White shoes and white pants...definitely 70s.

You must be using WIN8 w/IE11.

Yes, I posted the Bulldog cover and here is the thread.... http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?/topic/32505-mack-bulldog-magazine-cover/?hl=bulldog

He is training his grandson how to find old Macks!

Tom, Nice picture story. I would have checked the "LIKE THIS" box but Hat would accuse me of "liking" because of the Winfall lass! BTW, you look much more "civilized" after the trim.

If it is fuel being sprayed around/on the manifold....BE CAREFUL....you might have an "underhood event."

I don't like buying anything sight unseen but the seller needs to provide details and detailed pics. Sometimes sellers don't want to take the time, they just want a quick sale. Not saying this is the case with the Superliner but just saying.

Make sure you transfer your original (old) VIN to the "new" cab.

Happy Belated Birthday

Hee Haw!!!! No offense taken. I was going by memory and my memory is going. Did not know bout Fs being upgraded to 3306.

Dr. Don and the Museum comes thru again! A BIG thanks! 1. As best I can tell we did not sell all-wheel drive MH’s to anyone except UPS. This was a specific application; the purpose of the trucks was to shuttle doubles over the western mountain passes in winter weather. There were two GSO’s. 2. Engine: EM6-300 (300 HP @ 2100 rpm), Transmission: TRDL1070 (10 speed), Transfer Case: TCS15, Front Axle: SDA16 (Fabco 16K, 4.62 Ratio), Rear Axle: R170 (Rockwell 23K, 4.63 Ratio) 3. The specs are somewhat ambiguous as to whether they had a manual lock-up for the front wheel drive. I’m also not sure what the S stands for in TCS15; I’ll do some more checking on that and get back to you. Guys - remember the Museum in your donations.

Good luck in your new endeavor.

The computer will "derate and disable" the engine in EPA 2007 engines and later if any of the aftertreatment system is altered or removed.

Are you suggesting removing the emissions aftertreatment equipment? If so, it is illegal to remove such equipment.

EZ, Does a person need a "permit" to buy R134A in bulk?

Not familiar with a RD...is the dimmer switch on the floor?
