Well after 4 14 hour days of working on it I think it might be ready for the road. It was definitely a Labor day weekend. Relined front brakes and drums(which I couldn't get until today, and they were ONLY $290 each). Found a bad wheel bearing, replaced all of them. Replaced exhaust pipe found bottom connection on muffler was bad couldn't find one Saturday so I cut one off another one I had and welded it on. Took air cleaner off to paint and found the one strap was bad, had to make a new one. Paint didn't quite match but it's better than rust. Put on a new steer tire. Changed oil and filters. Pulled off all the wheels and cleaned and painted them. Put a visor on. Wife spent a couple days cleaning inside and polished tanks and cab. Looks pretty good all cleaned up. I'll try to get a picture on tomorrow.

Thanks for the comments. I hope it works out. The Ch is getting tired and it will be awhile before I get the Superliner back on the road.
Good luck nice nice!! If I were you I would check the top cover of your trans. If it is a T2090, I have a truck just like that but a year older and I also had a Superliner (89) with a 2090 both broke the forks and jammed the trans between the gears and broke the main shaft in the trans! IT IS A MACK PROB. And they make an updated cover!! Mack would not stand behind the failure, and if not for the service man. At Mack at the time I would not even known about the new cover that they put on the trans when they fixed it! I was not charged for the new cover!! So look into it, I don' know if anyone else has had the problem but I sure did! What a beautiful truck!!

PS my old Bull Dog works every day!!When I had my 84 r model I remember they had a recall on the 2090 so I was hoping they fixed the problem by the time this one was built.

I went to Beckley, WV to look at it and then I had to have it. 89 R model 350, Mack 9 speed, 44,000 rears, wetline and only 157,000 miles. It was a WV turnpike truck. Its in pretty good shape. A little touch up paint an exhaust pipe elbow and a good cleaning and it should be ready to work .I have some pics of some older Macks The guy has if we can figure out how to get them off the wifes phone

I know what you mean. I start something and I see other things that needs fixed or painted and I figure nows the time to do it.

If they're hub piloted they probably are 33mm.

Chrome Depot in Mantua Oh has straight pipes they put mufflers in,looks like a corkscrew. That's what I put on my Superliner. I had around 1500 in everything pipes, mufflers, elbows, clamps, and mounts. Its a little louder than stock but not much.
