    If the headlight panels are off a B73 they are narrower than a regular B61 panel, the B73 has a wider radiator than a b61, you could put the whole front off a B73, but the hood has to be completely redone. terry

    Rob the TRDL 1070 is a overdrive tranny, there was also a TRDL107 which is a direct tranny,to use all the gears start out in 1st in the main box and direct in the back one, then shift to overdrive, then 2nd in the main and direct in the back one, then in to overdrive and so on up through the gears! And i am almost positive the top main cover on a 5 spd. will work on that tranny. the main cases are the same and i think the back one is too. just different gearing in the back box. Terry

    I think i would start at 4,000 and go from there, you can always go up if you think it is worth it. Pretty hard to go back down! Terry

    I was told the heavy axles out of a DM mack can be used in the CH, but measure from center bolt to center bolt to be sure. terry

    I owned a DM with a 285 turned up and a 12 spd. overdrive with 4.17 rears, absolutly the best combo i ever drove. you could not believe the trucks i could outrun. But it sure liked the fuel if you kept your foot in it. terry

    I have seen the door bent up by going through the window opening, open the door or take it off and use the door opening. Terry

    There were 1,619 made between 1955 and 1966, that is the total for single and tandem axle units. Terry

    Looking for a GOOD hood for a B73/75 with the L cab. you can call at 402 630 8027. Terry

    just remember the 1071 series is an extra low hole tranny than the 107 six speed, so there maybe different sized gears that the pto runs off of. Terry

    You are talking about an overdrive triplex, you can use the under, direct and over in the back box with first to fourth in the main, then when you are in fourth in the main box and over in the back box, you just shift the main box to fifth, which is overdrive in the main box. it really gets confusing to try and explain the difference between a trt 72 and a trt 720 In both tranny's the back box is a underdrive a direct and a overdrive. Hope this is not to confusing ! Terry

    If it was a flathead it was probably a 401 in a B42 model. Terry

    He is definetly going to have to match the rears with whatever tranny he goes with. Terry

    The 2060,2070,and2080 all take a rear ratio of at least the low or mid 5.00 number, the 6 spd. really should be with a 3.86 to get any good road speed, and a 12 spd. overdrive and fuller work real good with a 4.17 ratio. terry
  21. terry
    The one thing you have to remember is the 2060,2070, and 2080 trans take a different rear ratio than a fuller or a mack 6 or 12 spd. tranny. Terry

    Yeah you don't see to many of them D models around, my boss has one he redone some years ago , and has two or three more stashed away in a building. Terry

    They are different bell housing sizes, and i don,t think the frame is big enough for that engine. Terry

    Where are you located? Terry

    Should be some different dimensions on the front on length, i think the R700 had the longer hood, than the R600. terry
