I appreciate everybody's help, but after pricing I think I'll have to pass. Cheapest I found was $900. I think I'm just going to order a aftermarket grill that is aluminum and has a similar appearance to the Mack grill, it just doesn't say "Mack" on it. It's only $400 to my door.

The last 2 numbers in the model number is the engine, I think a RD888 would have a E7 350. I've got a RD822sx that has a Mack E9 V8 500hp.

I think that one will work, and that seems like a good part number, but I haven't located one yet. Do you have availability of that part number?

This isn’t a pic of my truck, it’s a truck I saw sitting that belongs to TVA. I’ve got a CH613 and I want this style grill for my truck. I’ve looked on the internet and everywhere and can’t find this style grill for sale. Even called Watts and they said I needed a vin off a truck with that grill to look it up. Does anybody know where to find that grill, or has a truck with that grill they are willing to share the vin with me?

They only built 233 total? I've got a '85 RD822sx, it was one of the Macks shipped off to the Middle East in Operation Desert Storm.

I've been debating on buying the Blixxton tuner for it, but I guess I'll wait and see how it does. I've got to get a wet kit on it first, as all of our trailers require hydraulics.

That pic is from Rainey's, but all they seem to offer is the grill surround pictured.

I honestly don't know what the rear ratio is, but it's fairly low, I'd say maybe 4.11. Trans is a Fuller 9 speed.

I picked un a '97 CH613 with a E7-350 awhile back, mainly because it was cheap (bank repo). I've slowly been fixing it up with plans to just use it as a farm truck or sell it. Well one of the main trucks I use in my business took a dump ('95 FL with 3406c). The engine has went down and is probably going to be down a month or more. I'm thinking about tagging the CH, putting a wet kit on it, and using it until the FL gets repaired. My only concern is power. We commonly gross 80-90k, how does the E7-350 compare to the 3406c? I'm not one of those people that has to beat everybody up the hill, but would like not to have to drop to the low side to get over a hill.

That’s not my truck, it’s just a pic I found on the web. My truck currently has the one with the big bars and Mack in big letters across the middle. The one currently in it is busted and I like the looks of the grill in the pic better.

I really don’t know. I did talk to my local dealer but they are a bunch of idiots. They claim my RD822sx doesn’t exist when I give them the serial number, but Watts has no trouble with it. I need to call Watts.

I picked up a '98 CH613 with set forward axle and the grill is busted. I would like to replace it with a grill like this, as I think these look much better than the stock grill. Anybody know where to find a grill like this for my truck? I've looked online and have came up with dead ends.

Just line the yokes up.

The truck in the picture is a RD822SX. I own it, same truck that is in my avatar.

I just love the looks of a steel hood. IMO, the C500 is the best looking modern truck on the market.
