  1. Nek, How much do you want for them both? Thanks, Daniel
  2. Matt, Thanks for your help. I have a 673 engine that came out of a 753 truck that is painted a darker metalic blue. I think that it was probably arebuild that they put in the truck about 20 years ago. I don't know if it is the original color or if the rebuilders painted it that color. Thanks for your help, Daniel
  3. Hey everybody, I have a 1963 Mack B 421 with te EN 401 gas engine in it. What I was wondering was, what color was the engine and transmissions painted when they came out of the factory? Thanks for any input, Daniel
  4. mackmech, Thanks for your reply, I have been on Pat walshes website before and had the same problem you did. He'l send you a catalog in the mail if you give him your mailing address. But, I was talking to a guy named Matt Pfall (he's got a link onthis website) and he said that if you have th aluminum aound your windshield, you had better not break one single piece of the rubber because there is nobody that makes new ones. So unfortunatly, as it looks right now, were probably going to part it out to help out the restoration of a different Mack we're working on. Thanks again for your reply. Daniel
  5. Rob, So far as I can tell, the beams don't look too worn out at all. They still have the bushings in them, its just the bushings at the bottom of each bogie that are gone. And if it gets too tough trying to get it apart, I know a guy thet has either a 60 or 80 ton press that might help it along. Thanks a lot for your help, Daniel
  6. Rob, do you think that I could buy the rubber bushings and put them in my self? And also I'm not real sure what you mean by the pin that is hard to get out. Are you talking about the big pin that the beams pivot on? Thanks for your help, Daniel
  7. Hello everybody, I got a B-421 "SX" with the walking beam (NOT Camelback), suspension on it. I was wondering if anybody knows if Mack or anyone else makes reproduction rubber bushings for it? All you can see on mine is a few remnents of rubber left. Thanks for your help, Daniel
  8. Hello everybody, I have a set of 5 glass cab lenses that came off my 753. There were 3 amber lenses and 2 what looks to me like blue lenses. What I was wondering was, were they considered blue or green? And also would they be legal if we put them back on the truck? Thanks, Daniel
  9. Hello evrybody, I got a 1960 B-753 "LT" with the "L" style cab on it. It has aluminum winshield frames on the front and more of a squarer back window. What I was wondering was is if anyone sells parts for the "L" cab. We would need all the seals for the windows doors and everything. But as it sits right now, we dont know if we're going to go on with restoring he truck later, or just part it out. It all really just depends on if parts are available for the "L" cab. Thanks alot, Daniel
  10. Thanks everybody that replied to my question. Sorry tht I didn't get back to you all earlier but I had some prblems with my computer. Thanks Again for all the help. Daniel
  11. Rob, Thanks for the information.The tag on my engine is missing, i can see the two rivet holes where it was. Also I found a place that is supposed to have bearings, rings, crankshafts, injectors and a lot of other parts for the old Mack gas and diesel engines.I don't know if they have parts for all the engines, but they say that they do for The ENDT 673 and the EN 401 engines. Their website is jobbersinc.com . I have not actually talked to them so I don't know for sure if they actually got the parts or not. Thanks, Daniel
  12. Hello Everybody, I just bought a 1963 B-421 "SX" with what I think is an EN 401 engine in it.We got the engine running pretty easily after we got it home and I was wondering how reliable these engines were? Also I was wondering where the engine model and serial number is located? I looked all over and couldn't find it.
  13. Theakerstwo, Thanks for your reply, that website should help us a lot. Thanks, Daniel
  14. Steve, I got to thinking, and now i feel real dumb. I don't know what i was thinking, at first i was thinking that it would for some reason be 34,000 on each axle, but then I remembered that it is the whole bogie rating. Thanks a lot for your help, Daniel
  15. Wow, I thought they'd be alot heavier duty than that. Thats less than most trucks today have on one axel.
  16. Thanks Rob & David for your input. We'll be going through he whole truck and was wondering if they would need to be replaced with something better. Thanks, Daniel
  17. Thanks Steve for the info. Is each axle rated at 34,000 or is both rear ends put together rated at 34,000 Lbs? Thanks, Daniel
  18. Hey Everybody, I just bought a truck that has wedge type brakes on th rear axels. I was wondering if anybody has messed with them before and also how reliable are they and how well do they work? My truck has four brake pods on each rear axel,(two on each side). If anyone has any advice, I'd appreciate it.Thanks, Daniel
  19. rob, i just realised i got you mixed up with a different guy that I'd been talking to about the 673. Sorry. Daniel
  20. Rob, Thanks for your input. I did find a place with injectors and a few other parts. They were pretty expensive but if someone really needed them you could get them. also where abouts in Bakersfield are you? And whats you phone number? I'll give you a call sometime. We might be interested in your engine and transmission. Thanks, Daniel
  21. hello everybody, I just bought a 1963 B-421 "SX" with CRDP 92 & CRD 93 rear ends in it. It also has the Mack walking beam suspension under it. what i was wondering was is what is the approximate axle weight ratings for this truck? Also the axle number on both rear ends is SWD-73. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, daniel
  22. Hello everybody, I just tore apart a Mack B-753 "LS" truck with an ENDLT 673 engine and aTriplex transmission. What I was wondering was is how good of a set up were they? Would it be worth going through and rebuilding the engine and transmission or would it be better to put in a Cummins and a 10 speed? Any input would be appreciated, Thanks, daniel
