    I don't know if any of them are better than the other, I don't think there was much difference between them.
  2. The Heinz
    22700131 is the number for the upper seat bushings, 22700132 is the lower seat bushings. The lowers are available, uppers are not unfortunately, with not a single dealer in Canada or the US showing any in inventory.
  3. The Heinz
    It'll be a 680, possibly a 680B.
  4. The Heinz
    It's like an unnecessarily complicated Z-Spring Air Ride, I've never seen nor heard about this before.
  5. The Heinz
    No, Atro has nothing for these bushings. They look similar to steer axle spring pins, see the picture below... ALL of them look like that, are on a national backorder, and have no aftermarket available. That sucks.
  6. The Heinz
    Oh, I've never seen that before... I've heard the V-Ride be called twin Y before so that's why I went off on it, let me see what your VIN pulls up.
  7. The Heinz
    As for seeing if there's aftermarket, I'd need at least the last six of your VIN. There have been differences in these suspensions that would lead to different part numbers.

    Known as the V-Ride or M-Ride depending on if it's installed on a Volvo or Mack, it's the one with the super expensive V-Rods. Someone here called it an imitation camelback, which I'd have to agree. The camelback doesn't have a TPI on how to "improve" the V-Rods by using bronze races when replacing the bearing/bushing as one does a lot, the V-Ride does.

    I don't have the ability to check the software for these trucks unfortunately.

    Truck has an AMI-370 ASET, T310, and CRDPC92/CRD93 4.42 rears.
  11. The Heinz
    At least it's not an ASET AC, with an EGR cooler that always teeters on the edge of unavailability, EGR temp sensors built into the mass flow tube so it costs upwards of $1300 for a new one, a VGT that uses air to actuate and has dinky little filter on the bottom of the block, the list goes on.

    The small handful of Jamaicans I've met have been cool people. They seem to have a lot more of a laid back attitude about things, which would be greatly appreciated if the majority of America would adopt. He taught me the saying "C'est la vie," That's life.

    I don't know if these will function correctly or not, but here's some part numbers from a 2000 ETECH (Non-CCRS) Injector 6Pack ETECH 427HP and higher: 85135080 Front and Rear Exh Manifold: 21090679 Center Exh Manifold: 21090730 Turbo: 631GC5153MX Again, I can't confirm the fitment of these parts on an ASET, but these are 100% what the ETECH 460 calls for.

    Welcome to the forum! Are you looking for the Radio code that the truck came with? I can usually find that code in Impact, I would just need at minimum the last 6 of the VIN.
  15. The Heinz
    I've seen someone order those old type hubs here, very recently in fact. The dealer couldn't do anything for you?
  16. The Heinz
    Are those some Hayes logging trucks I see in the background?
  17. The Heinz
    Fairly certain that the design change Mackpro mentioned above also changed that pipe. I'm remembering that we had to order a pipe for the last job we had like this. I don't have a part number thanks to Impact being down.
  18. The Heinz
    Fairly certain your engine was a B code, but Impact is down right now so I can't confirm. EDIT: This truck shows to have an ENDTB676.
  19. The Heinz
    I've never been a huge fan of the straight stacks like that, I always felt the angled bullhorns looked the best.
  20. The Heinz
    Bet you watched Project Farm's video, I saw it pop up but haven't watched it yet. He's usually really good at these tests, it made me confident in the oil I was using for my Hemi. I've heard Hot Shots being recommended around here, seems for a good reason.
  21. The Heinz
    We always had good results with Yokohama tires at my last job, if I were to ever run a rig, that's probably what I'd use.
  22. The Heinz
    Such a shame that something reliable is impossible to get parts for. Had no clue they were actually reliable.
  23. The Heinz
    These trucks have parts are made of unobtanium. There is hardly ANY support for them, so it will be a nightmare repairing them. Rockauto has some parts available, but other than that, you'd be screwed. I've had several owners asking us for parts, and no matter how hard I try, it comes up dry. As a Mack parts guy, I can't recommend these trucks based entirely on that. I have no clue how they perform, whether or not they're reliable, etc., just on how hard it is to supply parts for them... I don't know, maybe eBay would be a good source, but it's up to you, the owner, whether or not you are ok with it being down while you search for parts...
  24. The Heinz
    I think some of their first generation ones had CAT motors in them, maybe a C13 at the least. The majority of them ended up being Navistar junk.
  25. The Heinz
    Also, I wasn't able to get anything out of the number you gave me, I would need either the VIN or the actual engine serial (something like 5G4629). The serial's on the intake side near a boss.
