1986 R686ST value
hicrop10 replied to Bjt's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I have a 1979 r model and I m the original owner.My dad brought 20 of them along with 10 u models,15 dm600 triaxles,all at once.The specs of the r models were 169 WBA’s,endt676-300 series 285 hp,trxl107 low hold 5 speed,12,000 front,38,000 rear,4.17 rear ratio.When it was new it pulled a dump trailer and it was never loaded less then 80,000-90,000,except on Saturday when it was loaded at 90,000-100,000 or more.The point I am making is that we never had a problem with these trucks,carrying that weight.I think that it was in the trans with the low hold.We also used them to pull the lowboys.The most we would load them with were cat d8’s.

Randy,the truck I remember would have been in the early 70’s.

Randy,it was a rainy night I was coming down Huntington pike and rear ended your mom.Your mom called your dad and we exchange info and went about our merry way.Your dad and my dad talked down at Chuck’s and settle the whole thing.I think your mom was driving a ford station wagon.If my memory serves me right I ended up paying something like $100.00 to have your moms car fixed.On another subject wouldn’t you like to have your dads old Mack he would park at Chucks.

Randy,I met both of your parents by accident,and I mean by an accident.It was my fault,your mom was very quiet and your dad was a true gentleman.I watched my dad go down that same road.My prayers are with you and your family.

Our old equipment shop where we would bring in d9 dozers and twin engine scrapers that weighed 100,000 had a foot thick slab and we never had a problem,matter a fact it was poured in 1963 and it still hasn’t been replaced.

Restoration of my 1929 AC

Who did the painting,it is absolutely beautiful? -
Again it was a great show.Mack really knows how to do it right.My hat is off to all the volunteers that help to put this show on.Think about it Mack is the only manufacturer car,truck,tractor that does this.Hope to have one or both of mine done for the next show.

What would you have expected with a Mack out front.We had a fellow back east here that had some Pete’s that had more then there share of chrome had a move like yours.His load came in by rail and it was a press for a machine shop,thing was huge.He asked me if I thought my 82 dm800 would pull the load,said he was afraid of breaking his Pete’s.I told him when and where he wanted the Mack.Pulled it no problem weighed in around 250000.Chrome won’t get you home.

Sorry to say that truck made a boat ride.We brought it new in 84, my cousins sold it in 2002 I think.The most we pulled with that truck was somewhere in the range of 200,000 lbs or more never failed us. -
Ex H&K truck.Why would you waste the time and money to detail it with the bad motor?Looks like they put perfume on a pig.

We moved our 1166 with only removing the bucket. We were weighing somewhere around 300,000.If I can find the pic of it on the trailer will post it.
