CF795-1081 xTarrytown NY Eng 76 x Shawnee Valley PA

Thought I’d share a couple pictures of my 865 powered CF running like a sewing machine in this years parade.

My paper is showing a clutch number as 1MXA 3165 clutch type CLS-751 and that’s with a tr-722 in a cf795

I’ve got an itemized parts list as well from Mack I’ll look when I get off shift from the station when I get home in the morning.

Not sure if it would be of any help, but I have a 77 CF795 that was originally a 5 speed. I have the build sheet at home it should show the factory clutch part number. Would that be of help?

I’m trying to learn more about the 865/866 myself. I have an 865 and am beginning to collect parts for future repairs. Thank you for the part numbers.

Love the DM old school fabricated front end and heavy rears. Is it planetary?

I’ve been very curious about the 865/866 since I bought my fire engine with one. Not alot of information out there on them. still can get parts just have to dig. Turbo was discontinued but I had new one built to specs so it can be done reasonably

Just wanted to thank everyone and give an update; Today I was able to get the old girl out for its first successful journey since thanksgiving. She ran flawlessly. 90lbs of oil pressure hot cruise and 45lbs hot idle on a fresh service. the new turbo is definitely an improvement over the original. Now just have to run it some more to build up my confidence

That’s awesome!! Another cf700. bearings, I’ve seen a few floating around. You can get parts just takes some digging. they are out there still. Just went thought similar with my 865 finding a turbo. Takes some patience and research.

Just a simple observation, I assume that year did not have a battery disconnect? All of the apparatus I’ve been around in my career, Mack’s have had the kussman “spelling” staple black quarter/half turn battery disconnects. In the event I’m willing to bet the field is energized or bleeding power through the generator if nothing else.

Gents, recently put a new turbo on my 865 in my CF795 i need help identifying this turbo flange to get the right parts to build a new downpipe as it is different than the original. Thanks in advance.

Have our departments original 31 Suburbanite in our headquarters building. Still operating. Awesome trucks.

Turbo is a modified BorgWarner 183386 4LE it looks like it will drop right in. The diesel shop said it should out perform the factory turbo. The only difference I see is the turbine housing is quite a bit smaller, but the inlet and outlet are the same size. I was surprised to see how big the factory turbo housing was considering how small of an area inside the housing the exhaust has to flow out of. Basically a 1/4” gap all around the outlet. Might take you up on a used turbo as a spare if this does work out or if I need one because this one won’t work.
