New to Mack


Mack-1986

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. Thanks for having me. I've been around trucks most my life and have always had a passion for them. I just recently got my licence to drive truck my class3 up in Canada. I'm starting a new business venture for my self in the roll off bin business. I'm purchasing a 1986 Mack superliner with the e9 500hp engine and 12 speed tranny.  Here are a couple pics.

Good looking truck, and welcome to the site! Also good luck with the new business. Lots of collective Mack knowledge here at BMT to help you keep that V8 working for you. Learn as much as you can about the E9, it is a good engine if you pay attention to it, and BMT can be a good resource for parts, as spares are becoming harder to find and more $$$.

Guys I here these trucks are expensive to repair if the engine breaks down. If I run this old girl every day and keep her well maintained will break downs bankrupt my new business I am starting or are the engines pretty tough. My ultimate goal is to restore the old truck to its former glory but for now I will be putting it to work. 

Thanks for the info guys.
