  1. Very, very nice truck! ! Terry
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. Looks like an awful straight truck to chop down! Terry
  6. Every older mack i have worked on had it hooked to the suction side. terry
  7. Have to agree with H K the lo hi range needs rebuilt. terry
  8. Could't look any better than it does, should stay as a dump. terry
  9. You will have to post some pictures! And i also like the EHU models, almost bought one a few years back. Terry
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. If you are talking Gerharts all mack meet, i believe it is in first of October. terry
  13. There were 1,619 made between 1955 and 1966, that is the total for single and tandem axle units. Terry
  14. Looking for a GOOD hood for a B73/75 with the L cab. you can call at 402 630 8027. Terry
  15. 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
  16. 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
  17. If it was a flathead it was probably a 401 in a B42 model. Terry
  18. He is definetly going to have to match the rears with whatever tranny he goes with. Terry
  19. 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
  20. 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
  21. 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
  22. They are different bell housing sizes, and i don,t think the frame is big enough for that engine. Terry
  23. Where are you located? Terry
  24. Should be some different dimensions on the front on length, i think the R700 had the longer hood, than the R600. terry
  25. Ratios are as follows, 1st 14.44, 2nd 11.23, 3rd 8.59, 4th 6.68 5th 4.99, 6th 3.89, 7th 2.84, 8th 2.21, 9th 1.66, 10th 1.29, 11th 1.00 12th .78. And there are some 12 speeds that are just direct in 12th gear. Terry
