    Pros: You cant overload the truck Cons: If the material is light you cant get enough in

    Yeah but doesn't putting air ride in a antique take away from restoring it to original condition.
  9. 2stacksuperdog
    I would say just trace it back

    To bad he got rid of the rest of his Macks besides his one DM and superliner. He keeps them all spotless

    I could never figure out why people always want air ride. I go to truck shows and see B-models with air ride and it sure isn't original. In my opinion spring is best for show or work.

    I can see if you pull a lowbed all the time at most 450-500 but if in a tri-axle all you need is 400 because you really cant stop those anyway

    My question is why the need for all this big horsepower? You get to the top of a hill doing 80mph and then you cant stop the truck. The brakes are not any bigger than they were 40yrs ago so next thing you know your going down an hill and cant stop and you kill someone then what.

    It depends if you truck is air ride or spring and if your on asphalt or dirt. If air ride i would say OK but if spring take weight off and if on hot asphalt find sturdy dirt.

    I think maybe for better turning? if they put the long fenders on then they would use regular bumper instead of one on it also they are that same fender as steel nose r-models use so...

    Bob- I was just thinking you might be thinking about Tomasso who was bought out by Ashland Oil of England who now go's under as Tilcon. They had a lot of B-models and DM800s too at one time.

    The bottom one is a DM800 which is made for any motor like a superliner or RD800 but with offset cab. The top one is a RM which means it is all wheel drive R-model which all had mainly Mack motors in them. Also the axles are set back in both.

    The gold dog means the truck was built with all mack components, Ex.- engine, transmission, rears, springs

    It is still nothing like the good old mechanicals.

    Suzio is still owned by the Suzio family. They bought out Beard Concrete of Milford.
  24. 2stacksuperdog
    Yep from what i know they only scrapped 2 Rightway mixers besides that everything is in the quarry. they reorganized a lot of it over the summer.

    I like how the lowbed still has a load on it.
