Didn't know that a B-61 can with power steering.

There was an OEM set up that ran the pump off the back of the generator. 

Kevin All may be able to help you with the ball studs and possibly the springs as well.  607-434-1063 upper NY state.

I was able to match up springs from Fastenal on a project a few years back.  Grainger and MSC would also have springs.

Jim, isn't CMCAC a Chassis Mounted aftercooler? I always thought that and expected that attached onto the chassis in front of radiator.

You are correct.  Sorry, I was talking on the phone on another issue while typing.

CMCAC cooler out front of the radiator.

In 1982, the Tip Turbine (CMCAC) was beginning to be phased out and the ATAAC (air to air after cooled) was being used.  CMCAC stayed with the DM model for a while and steel noses for design issues.  No place to put the cooler in the front.

OK.  The truck was either ordered with that wb or it has been altered to that wb.  All sorts of wheelbases were available.

Turning radius with 183" is 64 ft. or so.

Center of the front axle to center of the rear suspension.

Depends on the trucks wheelbase.

155" wb.   55 ft.  

173" wb.   62 ft.

204" wb.   78 ft.

231" wb.   88 ft.

245" wb.   93 ft.

Fantastic!  Will enjoy watching the progress.

Mack H model chassis.

We buy cardboard bales from Chicago. Find some crazy stuff from engine blocks to TV’s compressed into the center 

Well, isn't that special.

Might need the accounting folks in your office impose a BS fee for damages or make the payment checks for the bales a little lighter.

Looks like there were DMM's with butterfly hood and even non-front driven.

That green DMM with the van body must be a rare Dog!

Yikes!

Would rather find some left over gold in the tailings!

I had a wheel one time that would never stay tight.  Turned out that it had been run loose for a while and the tapered seats in the wheel had become wallowed out.  It would always work loose after tightening.  Replaced that one wheel and never had a problem again.

RM is an all wheel drive R model.

It is interesting that in a tandem truck the RM could be ordered with a non driven front axle.  Don't think too many were ordered that way!

Stamped.  Depending on rust, dirt, grease, the info may be difficult to read.

On a flat machined spot? Both rears the same thing? They are both the big cast axle housings.

.

The identification will be stamped on the rear of the rear housing right side.

Hair gel?

Hmmmm..... should look like 50 W oil.  Eaton PS-321 or PS-386 synthetic or equivalent.
