Tks guys will be on the phone tomorrow morning.

Looking for some wheel studs for my B87.They were made by Euclid and the part number is e4987-a ,would like to get 10 of them.They are 3/4-16 on the hub side an the other end is 3/4”-10. Tks for any help.

There’s actually 2 of them.Do a search for R model Mack’s.

There’s a 1972 R model for sale on the Philadelphia FB.I have no interest in it,it’s listed for $10,000.Will try and get you the phone number.

Yes that was my family business.Mr.Morrissey is still active in the business,I believe he is in the mid 80’s.I just retired from them on Nov.8 2024.I ran the old D8L’s they had. Great outfit to wok at.What happened in 2003.

Wonder which quarry that was,he had mostly 88B’s in them.

You can get one at the Mack store online.

I walked into the house from working on my Mack,and was greeted by this.My son got it for me.I was blown away.

Is it for sale and how much

That’s what I throught

I heard a rumor that Mack was thinking about building a pickup even saw a picture of it on the internet.Looks like a Ford.

I will answer my own question,just had my daughter work her magic on the internet.Other then going out to this website,I’m computer stupid.She got me the phone number and I talked to a very helpful woman.

As many of you know I’m restoring my B873SX tractor.Haven’t posted any pictures lately cause I’ve been a whole lot of hand sanding.Hopefully I will get the frame off to the painter in the next week or two.Where I need the help is that I have the original parts book that we have had since new my problem is that it incomplete,I brought one from Vintage books but that is also incomplete.The parts book I need is #5524.So does anyone here have the phone number for the Mack Museum,would like to see if they have the book I’m looking for,would gladly pay for it.Thank you for any help in advance.Will keep posting pictures as I make progress.

I will talk with Mike this week,Tks.

Do any of these yards you are talking about have heavy duty trucks? Looking for one of these.Where are they located at?

I would like to have it done by June for Macumgie(sorry my spelling isn’t that great).

Here’s the latest.All sand blasting is done now just doing some hand sanding.I am hoping to have her in the paint booth by late January.Will keep you all posted.

Happy Thanksgiving to all,I’ll keep all in my prayers.

I finally decided not to separate the frame from the bogies.Talking to someone that has done it before telling me how intense of a job it is.So I got all the sandblasting done,now I’m just about done with the hand sanding.Hopefully on Monday a fellow will come down and give me a price to paint the whole project.Will post some pictures tomorrow.

We used to rent McHugh’s trailer from time to time.They were really nice people.

Joe,reading what you have said makes me rethink about doing this job.I really don’t have to do it,it would just make the paint that much better.You mentioned double frame trucks well mine is triple frame,so I can just think of the headaches I may be getting into.I was going to paint the frame and rearend myself and have a real painter do the cab,hood,fenders and all the stuff that you’ll see.Going to see a fellow that I may have do the frame,he has a big paint booth.It’s not that I’m afraid of hard work or just heavy lifting it’s that I had a heart attack a year ago and dealing with kidney stones and passing blood.Doc doesn’t want me to be doing any lifting.That the good thing of having my shop not at the house,between my wife and daughter I don’t know who’s worse.I will keep you all posted.

No it spent it life here in Philadelphia.It was always parked inside the first 20 years or so.

Looking for a glovebox door (tan color) for my r model.

JoeH,doing it your way the a frames as I call them will stay attached to the frame rails,my way the a frames stay attached to the rears.I’m thinking it may be easier my way.

First I’ve gotta say thanks to everyone that has responded,thank you.I’m thinking that I will pull the frame and rears out of the building then spin it around and push it back in. This way the rear of truck is right at the door, that way I can use something big to pull them out.Like mattb73lt said his 58,000’s were 7,000 lbs, mine are 65,000’s.The first thing I will try today is to try and loosen them up,with some heat and the 1” airgun.If they don’t come loose I may just bag it.Tks again look forward for the pictures.
