russoniellov Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Just bought this baby, it's in north Georgia and I need to bring it to Miami Fl, what are some options to have it shipped down south? I'm thinking of posting it on Uship, or you fellow members may know someone coming this way. Am thinking of cleaning it up, see how she runs and ?????? who knows pto and put her to haul bulk loose.

68-f-model Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I shipped my f -model on u-ship from southern Mississippi to Michigan for about $1800 last fall. Got lucky and found a guy who lives near me and was on a back trip home from down south with an empty lowboy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russoniellov Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 Hello, I'm having trouble finding the width for this truck, it's far from me and can't measure it myself, the shippers are asking for this measure, they say over 8 feet 6 inches they would need permits any of you guys got a number, maybe off your own truck , please.

85snowdog Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 My R with fender flares is 8 ft 2 inches . Without the fender flares , like your new one , should be less than 8 ft - only your mirrors will be over 8' 6" but I would think the outer arms could just be folded in .

Vladislav Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 The Fuller tranny shift issue too might be a leak either.Good looking picture near the house. Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russoniellov Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 Went to the local Mack dealer for some parts, was told the serial# was not in their system, 1M2N188Y9HA019014, checked the title checked the door tag and the frame stamping , they all matched, that was weird. Can any of you guys check it out please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Lazy dealer. Try calling a different dealer or call Watt's Truck Center 1-888-304-6225 who is the owner of this Mack Forum site. 2 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

russoniellov Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 The truck needs work, changed the brake pedal, giving it a clean out, I'm amazed at the amount of dirt inside the cab. The tranny won't shift between high and low range, it's got an rtx 12609, I'm looking for a link on what gear ratios it has, no luck so far, changed the high low valve no luck, any tips on what to look for? Also changing the cab air lift valve and air bags, but I'm not too sure on how to put in the valve, any of you guys got a pick of how the valve goes in underneath the cab 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
