The SuperLiner saves another one- Early 1940's CleTrac Model FG recovered from a cow shed in northern GA and is now resting safely in northcentral PA. 1600 miles in 2 1/2 days- about four hours with the big Tulsa winch to loaded and get fastened down. We only had to make 2 cuts to get the blade (Eimco brand) off the c frame, to get close to being under 8'6". Tractor weighs about 27,000.

V-8 question
phildirt replied to felicello122's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
E9 500 performance chart.pdf Here are the factory specs- From Mack Publication 5-102, March 1993, E9 Mack V-8 Engine Overhaul Procedures -
Didn't intend any insult- sorry about that. I hauled it out of the woods for the current owner about 15 years ago- it had a Mack gas engine at the time, but I didn't pay any attention to what it was. Since then it has had a 673 and a quad added. It is definitly a kitbash- before and after. I am doing some more research to see if there are full build sheets. Don and I did a quick search during Trucktoberfest and found some evidence of it as a B 52. I think a misstamp is a possibility. Couldn't get a good photo/ read on the frame stamp.

From above: "Mack never made a B52 at all.. B53 yes"... See the picture below- somebody better call Mack and tell them that the chinese counterfiters are back at work-- There are some records of this truck in the archives in Allentown- (this post has moved on from what it started from- this information has nothing to do with the truck for sale at the start of the thread) Usually not a good idea to say "never" or "always" when talking about these old trucks- can come back to bite you.

I know of a least one other B52 - owned by a guy in Meadville, PA. There are build records for that truck in the files in Allentown.

Glad that it worked out-

I was always told that the offical color name was baby shit green.

A young man by the name of Scott Lester, Centerville, NY, owned a Farquhar steam traction engine and showed it at many antique tractor shows about 10 years ago. Don't know if he still owns it, but he seemed to consider himself an expert on the Farquhar. Good luck

Wiring diagrams are in the wiki section of BMT.

Anyone know this owner?

That would be Daryl Emery- He is one of the ATCA Directors- his contact information is in the Double Clutch magazine. -
R model firewall insulation
phildirt replied to jakebrake86's topic in Exterior, Cab, Accessories and Detailing
I have use both Lizard Skin and Dynamat. Both work well and beat using tar paper. You probably only want to these jobs once- do it right and it is cheaper. -

Nothing came up on the last post. The first link looks like it is from BMT- "Sorry, you don't have permission for that!" I am signed in ...

I get a message that says "you don't have permission to view this".

LMack- thanks, that would be a great help.
-
Lmackattack- I am trouble shooting/ fixing the front rear and rear rear temparture guages on my RW 613. The wiring diagrams I have from Mack don't mention or show anything for these 2 guages. Do you have any info that would be of help? There is a single 14 guage wire coming from each sensor that was cut off just in front of the cab/ firewall. Haven't been able to find continuity from the guages to anywhere on the fire wall. Any help?

Anyone with a 5th Wheel hitch wanna make a few extra bucks?
phildirt replied to tkobes43's topic in Odds and Ends
Did you find someone to haul this? -
I was thanking Mike- I saw his collection about 12 years ago (I delivered the front half of an R700 for a friend to his yard). It was very impressive even then and I guess it just keeps growing.
-
SuperDog I ran the RW613 today and tried the shift the way you described above-- It does take a little getting used to but it does seem to be a better transition between low and high. Thanks- love it when I learn something new.
