  1. The thing is USPS shipping would be under $20.
  2. Thanks. They sure are proud of shipping. Want $250 for it, almost half is shipping.
  3. T/A is twin axle. There's all the info and a ton of photos on the auction listing. Figured someone near Texass might be interested, why i posted it.
  4. I suppose I can make something. Wouldn't be too worried, but the others have wear, so they're definitely getting used. Fuel tank bottoms got caved in at some point, no idea how they don't leak or how they didn't get ripped off.
  5. No such thing here. There's a truck shop in Anchorage that sells Mack, but it's sort of a side gig. If I needed parts for 5 year old truck they'd probably be ok.
  6. Not sure how to make a link, screenshotted it though. Looks really good shape. Has a 12 speed Mack, not sure why they claim its an Eaton Fuller trans.
  7. Thanks for the info, I need to unhook that. No reason for brake lights to be on with park. If anything just blinds people at night.
  8. Jeez, how long did they use that dash? That's what my 1990 has!
  9. Same kit for E6, E-Tech, ASET per PAI parts.... Sure is frustrating trying to get parts for this truck!
  10. Sure, but there's no reason I can think of. I work in lubricants, so I review lube specs WAYYYY too often.
  11. Sure, just an odd spec. Like it actually makes a difference that it's 20wt vs whatever oil the engine is using. 5w40, 15w40, etc.
  12. Trying to source what I'd call a bumpstop, I think Mack calls it a "suspension stop bracket" for a 1990 R model, 38k rears, camelback. Front driver's side if that matters. Found a 12QK367A, but nit sure if that's correct. I'm not finding a good source for part numbers.
  13. Holy smokes! My R688 has maybe 2-3" and I was concerned that was bad and needed new bushes and all that stuff.
  14. Thanks, was trying to figure a few things. I know the tank isn't that big compared to most trucks I've run. I can get the low air buzzer going just moving it around the yard and having to jocky around stuff going forward/reverse/brakes. Considering putting an air dryer, the wet tank had oil, and it's made it's way through the whole system over the years. In the dash it's a lovely blend of misted oil from the air switch exhausts and caked on dust.
  15. Hope not, already ordered the kit. Seperate the gaskets were $55, so paid ~$170 for the studs and nuts.
  16. Good deal. Hoping I caught it early enough that the head or manifold isn't eroded. Well... and that I don't have to drill out every stud. I gave them some Kroll a couple weeks ago over a few days.
  17. I can't think of many times I've actually needed heated mirrors that a splash of methanol (windshield wash) didn't cure.
  18. Working on putting a 1990 RD688 dump truck back on the road. Has the 400 E7, 12 speed, camelback, top loader rears (maybe all do?? I've seen some with Eaton diffs and 5-18 speeds) Has an exhaust leak between head and manifold at for sure the back cylinder, possibly the 2nd. Was really noticeable starting it one morning with the hood open, as it'll smoke for a few seconds. Are the gaskets and studs the same for all E7s? I can order a kit for around $225. I think they are 12mm studs, which makes me wonder, metric was quite rare until late 90s into 2000s. None of the kits specify a year range or anything denoting there's different kits off a CPL, serial, etc so makes me think they're all the same.
