I realize this won't help you because you don't have a stamped engine tag. But looking at the tags I posted for you , I noticed the 300 4 valve was an EM6-300L. I knew the M was for maxidyne, but didn't realize they would have still have them in 88. And the L at the end had me really confused . So I looked in my books and came up with this . I found it interesting so wanted to share.

I got some more pics to either help or confuse . Hopefully help These tags are on the 350 engine , Pump Turbo Looks like the model is S4A-008 and these tags are on the 300 pump Turbo Looks like it may say the model is S3A 009 I noticed the tag on the block of the 350 says initial injection timing is 20 and the tag on the pump said the same . And the tag for the 300 said 21 and that was on the 300 pump.

Dean, Thank You for updating my mind on how these new air controls work. It has been many years (40??) since I pulled a Dump trailer.

Ooooooooooooooooo I didn’t realize that… hell a deal for somebody who needs it

That gorgeous shifter ball might have to be one of my finishing touches if I live that long .. as well as 2 toggle switch extensions… both seem to complete a full restoration cab atleast lol

Looks straight at the camera chest puffed out and doesn’t blow smoke up everyone’s ass and don’t have to read a script of one sentence lol

I think Truckcrazy was being a smartypants... He lives in Washington... I would buy it just to have it.

Ok hadda look him up … ya see what you mean … bob

It’s not that far from here but I don’t need it … bob

Yes the lens is missing,,, My next rainy day project,, . I got both strobes working yesterday. A lot of small things that’s a good time to repair while it’s still in the shop,,, Unfortunately if it goes out and gets hooked to a trailer stuff will get put on the back burner.

I'm haveing visions of that RW pulling a 36' MACsimizer. 😍

The small yellow button is to keep the PTO from accidentally being engaged, the lever towards the back of the cab is to let the fluid flow to the trailer,, the Landoll has a 2 line system, Engage the PTO , Move rear lever like you would raise a dump,, but leave it in that position, then work the controls on the outside of the trailer. It has a big “ Dump Pump “ on it , I could use a small box pump for the Landoll, but it’s already all hooked up.

The littler one (in the front) is to engage the PTO. The larger one to the back is the air control for the hoist. Both, the center stays and you sorta lift the flanged (?) part with your index and middle fingers. I wonder if the "button" you're asking about in the corner is the light that looks to be missing it's lense ? Usually that'll have a red lense on it and light up if the PTO is engaged.

Absolutely! That guy doesn't care what any of those clowns think or who gets upset hes does his job. Id say hes the most competent employee in the entire federal government. 👍

lol yeah and there’s that !!! Thanks for that .. bob

lol don’t know who he is but my TV is usually on ME TV, antenna TV or grit

@67RModel - Thanks for thinking of me. I don't do faceless book, but the big chrome bumper, chrome visor, and dual straight bologna stacks do NOTHING for me. But to each their own. Whatever floats your boat. As the saying goes "they are only original once" and that is what I seek or something close with no rust. I inquired about at least 30 trucks so far and the "nice ones" are usually sold by the time I see them advertised.

A lotta freight companies order trucks with no passenger seat to save alotta money and no riders allowed..maybe something like that

That’s just weird. I have never heard of that.

Dean, I recognized the big yellow lever as a PTO engagement shifter, so the hoist control is the the small post on the corner with the small yellow button in the center???? Just push it raise the body and let go and the body comes down??? This wet line set p will be good with your Landoll trailer..

There you go but from the photographs most of us, I’m sure are on the same page. It looks fantastic and does not look like you rushed anything.

Im watching Tom Homan on Fox and Freinds.. I think he is my favorite person that President Trump employs...

Your exactly right, if I had it to do over I would have taken more time prepping the hood and cab before I painted it,, it started as a axle replacement just to get it back to where I could use it, trying to get it done quicker so I could work on the Freedom Superliner. I probably would have stripped the paint completely off and started with a good epoxy primer,, as it is I just hit the bad spots with primer,, washed it with Ajax , taped and painted. At least it won’t hurt so much if it gets some tree limb scratches .

I assume the oil pickup is different on the bigger sump ? Might be worth looking into Paul
