    I took a few pics of a friend and I loading up his project 4x4 that did not want to start this morning. had to pull it up on the trailer with the RS and a Chain. Cold wet mud is always fun at 7am, especially whey your on vacation! Its heading out to AZ to be built as a rock crawler. next time i see it it might be upside down???LOL Hope all had a good Christmas

    if you are ever traveling inbetween Chicago and Milwaukee on I-94, take a look on the east side of the highway just 10 miles north of the Wisconson border. there are a few CFD pumpers sitting inthe backof a used (abused) truck yard just waiting for a ride home or to be fully parted out. not in the best conditions but worth stopping for a look

    If I remember correctly its just for ignition control for the engine in diffrent temps or altitude. you could andvance or retard the ignition timing to keep the engine running smooth. lots of older cars had them. someone correct me if im wrong

    sounds like a 2 stick 6 speed. 1,2,3,4,5 on the main box low,direct,reverse onthe aux box to use low......use 1st gear in the main box (left stick) with the axu box (right stick) in low. mack says to only use low with 1st gear, not shure why they dont want you to use 2nd 3rd etc... in low? my self and many will use 1-2-3 in low to get some speed on a hill then shift the aux box(right stick) into direct. almost any time you need 1st-low it will be so slow that its difficult to grab direct as the truck will stop rolling before you can make the shift. reverse is fun in 5th just watch those mirrors!

    Barry any luck getting the R interior parts. i.e door panels,headliners etc... I still cant source new ones. not even for a truck that was built in 2002.??? I know the old panels from the mid 80s and late 90s are obsolete. but I still cant find the latest grey panels used up to the end of the R production.

    people have pulled B models home with there P/U truck and goosenecks. it will be heavy have good brakes on the trailer! I figure the avg tandem axel B61 is around 13-15K My R weighs in at 15800 with a pto wet tank and full tank of fuel

    its not a 300+ if a 5 speed is behind it. the 300+ was not a maxidyne. it needed more gears to keep it in the "sweet spot". If its a tip turbine engine with a 5 speed its likely a 285 maxidyne. if it has an air to air intercooler in front o the radiator it may be a 300hp maxidyne? The 2 valve 285 was a very reliable engine so was the 4 valve 300. very easy to work on and most parts are still availible. knock on wood

    welcome to the site. many of us are train buffs (myself included) we would love to see that old DM and some old iron railway pics. Enjoy

    the rear cab mounts are unbolted from inside the cab. look behind the rear seats for two 3/4"? bolts. the cab rests on rubber mounts simmilar to the front. The rear of the bam bolts to the frame crossmember or with a bracket that is welded to the crosmember. You may need a person below the truck to hold the nut wile you lousen the bolt. Trent
