ThaddeusW Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Ok while browsing the photo album of an Australian member (Swishy) of Hanks truck forum I found this great five part article. It covers Mack from the beginning to the 70's and has all ot great pictures to go along. Pictures of the rare extreme duty M and L models along with an N model mixer and even the FCSW which was a 3 axle 100K GVW dump truck built in 1937, only two were ever made! My favorite pictures are of the M75SX and the M45SX. I wonder if any still exist especially the M75, would make a nice collectors piece . The first page of part three has an interesting picture of how Mack even used camel back paired with a second set of springs to take the weight of tandem planetary hub reduction axles.Here is the link: http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?aut...si&img=2539The images are 800x1100 which you can easily print. They look perfect on paper!Enjoy Quote -Thad What America needs is less bull and more Bulldog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RRJordan Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Could the "LFSX" be a LRSW? See page 111 of Adams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
