  1. I had an older DM with a Rockwell axle that took these straight pins, all Mack axles I have seen are tapered. Terry
  2. You know the Mack’s have went to pot if customers state there hating there Mack’s! Terry
  3. Real simple ,someone slid the single axle out and replaced with a tandem. terry
  4. I would say R700 series with a Cummins engine maybe? Someone will be along with better info. Terry
  5. Ok I thought it was the tee on each axle, feeding the brake cans. Terry
  6. You could also use a quick release valve if you can’t find that fitting. Terry
  7. I have seen old steel dashed RD’s with a single frame. Terry
  8. A RD is not always double framed, it is a deeper and thicker than a standard R model frame. I have seen single framed RD’s. Terry
  9. 285 engine might not be bulletproof, but close to it! As stated before lifters can lose there hard face and wipe the cam out. Terry
  10. Some close up pics on steer and tandems axles should be able to figure something out. Terry
  11. Always thought the X stood for extra heavy duty, never heard the term excavator. Terry
  12. Not true dm 600 and u 600 were the same, I put a u model cab on a dm, identical. Terry
  13. Just to add to that U model designation, the U model goes way back to even a EHU model. Terry
  14. You mean RB? That’s what that truck is. Terry😀
  15. I had a dump truck with a 285 and a 12spd with 4.17’s never had a problem off road, and had a real good cruising speed. Also had 22.5 tires. Terry
  16. Wise ole dad there! 😂
  17. If you look close the wires to the regulator have all been cut, probably had an all in one alternator/regulator installed. Terry pretty clean F model
  18. I once had an early F model with a quad box in it. Terry
  19. Them new pins are not tapered, no way to fit unless you do some lathe turning on them. terry Look like rockwell pins, there is a notch in the middle where a retaining pin goes through axle and along side of pin to lock it in.
  20. I remember them well ding,ding,ding! terry
  21. Definitely a nice ride!👍terry
  22. I believe there was a taller version of the filter on the left that had two cartridges in it, maybe the taller one is this? terry
  23. Better prepare for a rear gear swap, gas engines have deeper ratio gears than a diesel. Terry
  24. Thanks for the update. terry
