Mack N series trucks were specially designed army vehicles. There were mostly NR, NM and NO of different versions wich had many basic components of a L-model. Some early versions had L-model cabs. Although there were also different N's such as NJU or NB wich were different.
NR, NM and NO have much of look in common but technically were different also. NR was 6x4 with a frame and chassis components of LF or LJ.
NM had L-model hood and a cowl and cabs on early versions with Mack 707 and Mack 5-speed. But they were equipped with Timken-Detroit axles and a transfer case. A frame had "stepped" design, rails were higher under a hood and a cab than at rear to clear up a front wheel drive. NO was one more different beast. It had heavy rated Mack rears on Camelback with front axle like Paul described. 707 gasser under the hood (the same as in NM) with Mack 5-speed but integrated with a transfer case. The same style tranny was used in some heavy 6x6 B, something like B-813SX if I'm not wrong.

Best wishes!
Hope you had a great day.

Sounds like not a good day indeed.
Hope for a better turn out.

Have a great day!

Although all Europe drive them.
And sometimes they go bobtailing.
I remember the funny story when a friend of mine was going to make a trip to his willage house about 100 km and had no car, only a truck at the moment. Yes, it was 15 years ago. That day was raining and he finally resolved to hook up a trailer to.

Oo, that thing is clean!
Nice looking truck, haven't seen them Diamond-T's so old.
Thank you for posting gentlemen.
-
I missed the post some way but saw the truck in the other one.
Glad to see nice pictures, she turned out pretty clean

Any truck might be military if you paint it correct
Mike, there was another, "small" version with a hood shorter and a gasser.
But that's a matter for a new thread indeed.

Ken,
I'm afraid I don't cheer you up too much.
This pic seems to me as somebodie's art.
The lettering on their backs look correct although those stripped pins are used by road police overhere.
Shoes also don't look like a service stuff.
So don't be too fast with crime.
I mean if you see anywhere a MH with a grill in a decent shape think twice before pull it off

Thanks guys for posting all of these great trucks. Also thanks Vlad for posting, I especially like the original military look. I must be getting older cause I now like mostly original trucks. Would especially like to see a Diamond T military trucks. I'll put some photos of my dads WW2 photos together and post. I don't have any Diamond T photos that his outfit used to pull the big guns.

I hope you guys don't brake me down for off-topic, here are some pics I have of the "big" diesel WW2 Diamond-T's.
The color pic is of the fresh restored one I catched up in France this past D-Day selebration and the black'n white ones are those trucks in a civil service in Russia right after the war.
Mike, it would be too interesting to get over your dad's service days.
Paul, good luck on the deal with the Red monster.

The lake in the background is that a one of the great lakes?
I had been to Buffalo but only once.

That's cool to see!
Hope you had a lot of fun.
Is it END673?
-
... And the talks were about F models with aerodyne cabs wich all were Europeans excepting that one.
V8 powered Hayward R-Model was a cool thing to see in person indeed.
Glad to recognize some faces in the meeting although I still wonder how did look the red head I recently read so many about.
-
Cool toy to play in sand.
I think it still able to make some money if really needs.
Hope the owner has enough area to keep it away of scrappers.
-
L model MACK with a Cummins i believe. It was on Ebay a while ago with a bunch of mining equipment and office trailers in the back ground. Paul
Doesn't sound worse than the best answer.
-
Good looking rig.
Seems like it needs a pair of head lights to put on though.
-
Thank you for posting Ray.
I just wonder how did you catch up so many Superliners down the road.
The girl in the car shot was a good one.
And I too like the barn with RW in.
-
Have a luck with weather Tim!
Hope the harvest will pay the labour back.
-
Looks like he didn't make much damage to the trailer.
Hope he will be running and keeping that day in his mind.

What the 9 speed transmission is ?
TRD-720.. ?
Any markings on it?
Any water in it ??
-
Older style had 10 bolts all around, 4 of them were big.
Newer style has many bolts of the same size, almost like on a R-model.
Although I think CDR-92/93 are always newer ones.
R-models have a power divider shorter so if you put them in you should correct the prop shaft.
But you can go up to 4.17 - 3.86 that way.
It would be easier if you post some pics of your carriers.
Ring and pinion sets require set-up in a carrier housing so it's easier to swap whole diffs.

Hey Ken,
This time you was right.
Those are true.
That's the parade probably to the day of finishing police school (academy??).
Usual thing but they collected girls off guys in the lines.
Cool pic, just that type of chicks used to have a lot of attention from the other sex along a service.
