Frame Rails


BAD DOG

Recommended Posts

:SMOKIE-LFT: I looked into buying new frame rails for my RW700 superliner the other day and was told that the specific heavy ones for mine were not available anymore. I also loked over a new CL700 they had sitting on their lot , so I got the tape out and measured the frame up. It had what apears to be the same shape and thickness rails with alot of extra holes in the front of the frame. I wonder if CL rails would work on my RW project.

:SMOKIE-LFT: No not for getting them made. I have only priced genuine Mack rails witch were for my trucks VIN which were 3/8" 30' rails and they said are no longer available from Mack. For the price they told me though they should have been solid gold ones. I should call P.G. Adams just to see if they could duplicate the Superliner II rails with the drop in the front and to see what they would be.

CL MH RW all have comon frame!The RW shared the same frame with with the w model cab over and when the MH cabover came out The RW shared that frame with the MH When the MH was fazed out the CL took the frame over! Until the Volvo people got hold of things !Now its all Volvo trash. The cab and the Bulldog is all that remains.I beleive the MR is still its own truck ,But likly not for long!If you get a chance to compare a mack to a Volvo some day take a close look at the Simular if not exsact frames bracketry as Volvo /Autocar<From the Cxn / VN to the pinicale / Autocar

DO you know how much it costs for 36' 1/4 in frame rails like a ballpark price?

i had two grade 100 fourteen footers made for my B a couple of years ago. they were $750 delivered to wallingford conn. i too was very pleased with the fit and the fast service. scott
