  1. Congratulations,Vlad! The only other truck I have seen with that type of Neway,was a Ford cabover that had been a test truck for Neway and was at the ATHS convention in South Bend,In. I thought it might have been something experimental,as it was different than any other Neway air suspension I had seen. Now,I know of 2 trucks with it!

    Thanks Al,

    Pretty cool info you gave me about that suspension.

    It looks strong built at all and attached to Mack axles by some special way.

    Although there are repairs on the rear ends of the rear axle longitutional arms (levers) and I had a hope to find a pair of used such the levers in the future.

    Was shure it's a commonly used setup.

    It was also interesting to note - there are park brake chambers on the FR axle only.

    Do the most of modern Macks have it the same or it's out of the rule?

  2. Good deal for you Vlad. The stickers on windshield are 25 is the weight class it is registered for in Pennsylvania. The 02 -6 is a pennsylvania Inspection Sticker,it tells which year and month safety inspection is due. The New Yok State HUT is Highway Use Tax permit for New York State alone.You had to file miles to New York State to pay additional tax. Several States have them they are called a third tier tax.A little side note of where I live there is a small town by name of Moscow,Pennsylvania. It is in the Northeast section of State. Joe D.

    Thank you Joe.

    I read Ray's thread about HUT and being surprized to be related to by some way.

    The "02-6" sticker also makes sence, the truck was imported in Russia in early 2003.

    There's a kind of talk locally that there's the city of Moscow in the USA.

    Just have never been involved personally to that fact. Glad to learn it from you.

  3. Good score Vlad. Sorry,but I gotta be nosy,what's a non running MH worth in Russia?

    No troubles Mike, I don't have a momma to worry she might learn too much.

    The truck was offered for about $5500 and was for sale during two weeks before I checked the site out.

    It was too reasonable in relation to Visions or Freightliners/Internationals wich are common here and cost $25-30K being 1997-2002.

    If you remember white MH with the IH top on the cab it was also not running. The man asked 14K and after some talks stepped out to 11.

    After I came close to the green one and made the offer of 4700 the seller said Ok.

    I had to spend extra 1500 for 800km towing though.

  4. Ray,

    Thank you, but I probably need some additional facts.

    I made a quick look over today.

    The linkage was probably destroyed with a half-secessful fixing it up.

    The semi-spere with the pin wich is on the cab might be fitted into the lower (chassis) part on my mind.

    It comes in but doesn't lock there. I just not shure how it should be correct to work.

    From the pics you posted I can see those two semi-spheres can couples and gets off when a cab is almost up.

    If so what the way the lever in the cab is carried? Mine is just hangs in the rubber boot.

    And it seemed to me that the airbags to support the cab are almost gone.

    Still trying to figure out what it was layed on...

  5. Nice find and congratulations!! Single headlights were standard on the early MHs but these are not in the correct location (at least here in US). If it is a 1991 model, it may originally had quad rectangular headlights. Do you know if the headlight "buckets" are single or quad? I have UPS parts book showing round headlights. I believe most UPS MHs had single round headlights.

    Not sure if the linkage is the same for a Fuller tranny but I have parts book showing linkage for Mack tranny. I will scan it and send it to you.

    Ken,

    I got myself under the fender today and it looked like there were quad's. I supposed it should be that though.

    Single round lights look unusual on my mind and I like them by some special way. So resolved to fit on the truck the kind I can find sooner.

  6. I like it with the HUT sticker still on it. Cool rig Vlad.

    Rob

    I also like them, they reminds me the places I visited this past summer.

    Could anybody tell me what all they mean?

    good find vlad.

    hope you can drive it someday to the Netherlands at the mack day.

    see you then.

    leon.

    Thank you, Leon, haven't heared a long from you.

    It's shure a good idea, although there might be some troubles about riding EU motorways.

    I slowly think on that matter, too hope to do it one day.

  7. Cool. Interesting single headlight arrangement. Should it not be rectangular lights? Or is this a "Fleet" spec kinda thing? Or something someone rigged up along the way(likely)?

    The head lights is the ugliest thing in this rig.

    There probably was some accident and they fabricated the light panels of plywood with the most locally commonly used bulbs.

    So my list includes head light buckets.

    I think it was on ebay not so long ago.

    Maybe her brother ? (or sister?)

  8. Nice!

    It is official now, you have a collection!

    Check out this site. Type in the trans model and they may have a parts book for you in pdf form which may answer your questions with some pictures.

    Thank you for the input although looks like I need to work over the Mack stuff, not Fuller.

    The linkage is an Ultraliner feature, I think it's the same for any or most gearboxes in it.

  9. I'm too afraid not.

    When you talk about side gears do you mean an upper (bewel) gear set?

    If yes you need to set the position of the gears to each other to get a correct contact area, also you have to set the bearings pre-load.

    A lot of work, I'm going to get over it one day but I have no chances to find ready rears of the kind I need.

    Much more easier to swat just diffs. You need to get them out for rebuilt anyway.
