To me it looks like you can install a primer pump just in place of the 2nd plug. Or better to say that spot supposed to suit the primer but Mack "simplified" the things for a operator at a certain time to not bother his mind with such a unnecessory item as a primer. And plugged the 2nd hole.

The front standing U-model in the #5 picture has a decorative grill of a kind R's had installed on a CMCAC and it looks untypical to a U. Were there any U688 or U690 with chassis mounted aftercoolers produced or that grill appered there just by ocassion? Yes, Vinny is always on my mind when a U-model shows up by any chance.

As said above PAI offers supply pumps for that engine. Units put onto Ambac and Bosch injection pumps differ. But even that seems being possle to climb up with some re-machining or use of adapting parts.

Yup. All the setup is in the front housing of the FR axle diff. Take away the prop shaft, drive yoke, front cover and you'll able to pull a cage out and see them wedges. Sure better to look at a cut or blow out view in a book and read a bit. The CRD92/93 maintenance manual may be found on the net. Vlad

No, I don't know. Probably not. Guess the numbers reflect the pump capacity but also not sure.

B95 is a fire truck model.

I have a manual which is entitled as T2070A. Common reverse style but long rear compound. In fact it's half empty compartment if you look through the top cover opening. There's space for the reverse setup but it doesn't take place. Probably the reason is possibility to install PTO. Short compound housing doesn't have the mounting as I mentioned above.

Looks like a well cared truck from the distance. How could you track the suspension??

You are probably right. I have only a few Mack tranny manuals but one about T2070 represents long compound only. Also there's a brochure (below) posted on here in the past which also describes T2070 in the long housing only (note the length in the list). And two actual 7-speed trannies I could adopt locally both have long 2nd housing. On the other hand I see no reason a 7-speed can not be done in the short version.

Upps... I'm interested since kept my eye for something like this for a while. But I'm not sure I'm able to import at the moment due to the known situation. I will ask forwarding folks tomorrow on current possibilities. If anyone else leans toward making a deal on this starter I'd step aside.

Hope it's not difficult to fugure which one is long and short. The particular pics represent short version T2090 (I have almost similar T2060 in a truck) and the 2nd unit is the spoken T2070 long compound I installed on my R in place of the "short" nine speed. Had to cut the prop shaft and tinker with shifter air lines a bit.

Pretty easy way. Long compound T200's had cylindrical shift cylinder housing attached to the rear end of the transmission housing above the prop shaft flange. Short compartment versions have that cylunder hidden below the top cover of the compound housing so you don't see anything sticking out above the prop shaft. Also there's a PTO flange (usually plugged with steel cover) on the long compound housing and short version didn't have any side covers. Actually long compound housing is nearly 15 cm longer than the short. So easy to figure out if you have another style ever seen. BTW I'm not sure T2070 was offered in the short compound version. T2080 was.

Yup, that's the one. Also was close to be called a glider kit.

They had interesting offer on a heavy specified Superliner with decent double frame as it was seen in pics. The point was the truck didn't have an engine but everything else was there including cab, hood, radiators, Mack rears and tranny. Seemed as a perfect base for a resto project but there was no price tag either. I spinned some thoughts in my mind but figured to not stir the pot making a call. Now it seems gone.

I rifled through those glider pictures and didn't notice a Superliner. So figured you ment the one in the background of the yellow DM-800 shot. Speaking the truck you noted Joseph Equipment have plenty of listings on Truckpaper including a few RW's of different kinds during the recent years I checked the site from time to time. The prices are never put in their ads with "call for a quote" for everything. So difficult to judge the affordableness if you don't actually have particular reason.

Do you mean this one? I'm pretty sure the owner is known well enough.

I belive those with the slotted nut at the bottom are only adjustable to compensate axial play. And if the bushings or the pin walls are worn no use of tightening the nut.

Really sad events. I saw the aircraft when it flew carrying Buran shuttle near Moscow ring road in 1988 or 1989. Plenty of time passed since. Don't lean toward commenting what happens in Ukraine now, the most info I have is from media and generally the same as you can learn in your country. Personally I can say the least I'm shocked. And couldn't belive even in the morning of the 1st day when heard the news. Sure sanctions will affect my incoms and abilities to provide the resto projects. But the matter that bothers me the most is what Paul mentioned in his post above. Vlad

Excellent stuff! Drool.

Yes, sometimes we may be dealing with not pleasurant circumstances. Or may be involved into.

Yes, that's me. Sorry, can't understand the meaning of "not easy hit'n send". The thread was posted by Randy 1958FWD who was in contact with Hat. I just pulled it from where it was in "Odds and Ends"

Unfortunately guys you are late to the party.

Definitely better!

Time will tell

You already helped alot. And it's quite a common case when even very clever person may be achived in stupid situation just not knowing some key point. From the post you shared about engine repairs etc it clearly seemed to me that your knoweledges were deep and skills very impressive. But the fact you are eager to share the info and help others is very appreciated. Nice to discuss with you. It's already late time at me. I'm off to a sack
