Rob Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 i call $250..bobYeah, well I think he ought to just give it to me for stablemates to the ones I already have. This is of course is partially due to my cheery disposition, and willingness to "share my girls". Hell he could have each for a night at no charge.See, "what a guy" I am.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

cov1 Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 it has r 700 on the door and its a long hood if tht helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Alright now let's get serious. I personally like the R700 series so here goes:On the right frame rail just behind the rear spring hanger for the leaf spring there will be a number stamped. This number will be about 5/8 inches tall and is a series of letters and numbers and could be anywhere from nine to 13 characters in length. An example is: RL797LST19001 which is one of my trucks. This number is a very good starting point. If you can get this number and post it along with some photos, many of the participants on the board will willingly help you. Location is another large contributing factor.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

rhasler Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 That chassis record shows the truck to have been built 11.30.73. Doesn't show the engine, but it should have been a Cummins engine. RTF915 transmission, CRDLP92/93 with 4.17 ratio, FA535C front axle, 9 leaf Mack camelback rear suspension with split trunnion, 22" spoke wheels front and back.
