Macks On The Big And Little Screen
CML Service replied to Andy Wright's topic in Mack on the Silver Screen
Hey Barry , Cool link. Check out the picture on the first page 3rd line 2nd in. B61 in police Acadamy. Something is a little different about the wipers. Chuck -
Bias Vs Radial Rubber
CML Service replied to rick harper's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Be careful mixing radials and bias. I did it for a while on my R model single axle dump. No problems empty but loaded on the highway was a different story. I had radial on the front and bias on the rear. Lots of sway during lane change and exit ramps could be scary. Chuck -
Herb, I agree with your thoughts on upgrade. Also you may be correct about the support rods. I seem to remember in 1988 some rads had cast tanks and some were frame mount for air to air intercooler and 4 valve engine. Gees it seems like yesterday these were the NEW trucks for the fleet I worked on!!! Chuck

Something doesn't look right here. That looks like the small radiator from a R400 and the fan doesn't have a fan clutch. What is the history of this truck? Chuck

Wet Line Tank
CML Service replied to CML Service's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Thanks Trent, I plan to install a two line system just for that reason. I found my good 50 gal tank today. I cut a large hole in the top to clean it and to weld supports for the feed and return piping. I've seen some tanks crack at the bung when valves piping and hoses hang on them. I'll post some pictures while I'm working on it. Chuck -
Wet Line Tank

Thanks for the input folks. I think I will try to use the 50 gal tank that way there will be air space even with 45 gals of oil. Chuck -
Wet Line Tank
CML Service replied to CML Service's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Hi Trent, Are you saying you are running your system with 40-45 gals ? I was thinking of mounting another fuel tank on the driverside. I have a nice 40 gal tank fuel removed from another truck but I was thinking it may be too small. I think I may have a 50 gal still on a truck that matches the drivers side tank. This is one of my B models and it has 50 gal lf 40 gal rt. Chuck -
Hi folks, in the process of putting my truck back together I need to add a wet line tank. What size tank should I use? I plan on using it for a 24' dump trailer. Thanks Chuck

I think the cleaning and blasting are comming to an end. My frame is in primer and trunnion bracket is painted to go in. It's nice to stop taking things apart and put something back together. Now my only snag is still power divider parts. I hate to update to new style rears because I recently spent over $2000 on new driveshafts. Don't know why but I couldn't make my pictures small enough to load with this post so they are in my photo album. Chuck

Question About Batteries
CML Service replied to cranecrazy2's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Buck, You should be OK changing to 2 - 12V batteries. Use the best you can buy group#31 950 or 1000 CCA. I run my R model with 2 batteries and have never had a problem. Just be sure the starter and the wiring is in good shape. One battery per box will do it or two in one box wired in parallel not in series like the six volt. Chuck -

Thanks, It's a 1957 B42P. EN401 with a 5 speed. I bought it from a farmer a few years back. Drove out of his barn and about 40 miles home. Hopefully I'll get to working on it sometime soon. Chuck -
