Now that's one hack of a load! Wonder where that's at? And what's in that truck for power? I'd be totally impressed if that guy can back that outfit up!

Nice little fleet of Mack's!

Yeah they both look good for the money. It's just a long way to go to get them. It would cost more to go out and get them or get them shipped then you paid for both of them.

Very nice! Welcome!

Not sure if you can get a new one but Vickers made the pumps for 866's I posted a photo and part # a few weeks ago. I have a used pump and reservoir that would work for a core if you need it, let me know.

A guy walks into a bar carrying a set of jumper cables. He sits down at the bar and asks the bartender for a beer. The bartender looks at him and says Ok you can have a beer but don't you go starting anything in here !

8 hole hub pilot wheels were used in the late 80's to mid 90's used a larger stud and nut and were believed to be stronger wheels than 10 hole, but never were popular and probably are not the easiest to find rims for now. My 92 MH had 8 hole on the steers.

Northwest Truck 1-800-665-9248 ask for Harold he should have all gaskets and o-rings for them. Only things that are totally extinct for them are water pumps , oil pumps, and liners. But if you have a rebuildable core to work with Northwest Truck can rebuild water pumps and oil pumps. And I know a place that can make liners for them too if you ever need. But I don't see why gaskets should be an issue to get even from mack there should be old stock somewhere. Some one at his dealer didn't want to be bothered to look for it! I found that out on the weekend when getting a coolant filter for my E9 . It take the old fat spin on filter same as the older 6 cylinders do and my dealer at home told me they were getting hard to get a year or so ago, so I went 100 miles up the 401 to the mack dealer in London and hunted up an experienced parts guy I deal with there named Bill and told him what I was after and without needing the number he asked how many I wanted and went in the back and brought it out to me. Turns out the old number has been changed. That's what a good parts guy can do for you.

Yeah for sure a production version of that would be a way bigger seller than the Titan is by far!

Superliner II andMH springs and hangers are the same and both will bolt in place under a CL.. RW MH and CL are built on the same frame assembly CL just uses a longer spring and front hanger. If you look close on most CL's the holes are already punched in the frame rails to bolt Superliner and MH front assemblies under them. The stretching of the hood would be more work than changing the front end. So it really wouldn't be that big of a deal to do a forward axle CL conversion. I think finding a good cheap CL with an E9 for an affordable project is probably the toughest part.

Nice find 85 Snowdog! The Chatham International plant closed a few years back and was just demolished this year. Used to be tons of Loadstars around here back in the day .

Always sad to see them go, at least it's going to a good home for a second chance at life. Hope his pick up makes it looks like a good jag behind it.

I'll bet it didn't look that good when it first rolled down the asembly line. Looks great! Thanks for sharing your pics.

Toolboxes are always handy. I like the airline box looks good.

I have a pump and reservoir for an 866 but iit might be ok for a core if you are stuck for one. Has end play in the shaft don't know why it was taken off . It's a Vickers pump # on the pump is 313D . The last one I changed was in Jan. 05 and it cost me $495.00 then for a remaned pump my parts place got it from a steering shop in Toronto. And I know it was a Vickers pump I put on the part # on the invoice I have is LP17VTM42AF maybe that will help you. If not let me know and I'll have my parts guy call the place and see if we can find out anymore. Too bad You weren't after one about a month ago I pitched a box of Vickers pumps that had busted shafts must have been a downfall to them I think a few of them had better tags on them than this complete assembly I have.

I've been on wind farm jobs where I've had to back up over a mile to get in. Straight roadways and ones like that with a lot of tight curves. I did pull a set of tanker trains for a few summers too no matter if it's a set of doubles or a single trailer I have a lot of days where I can back in places first shot and a lot of days I don't get it first shot. I seem to be better with the pressure of having an audience watching.i don't concider myself to be good by no means just lucky.

Yeah, I changed my clutch cable in mine once. I don't remember the part about working in the end under the dash as being a very nice job.
