    No problem! The "big end bolt",are you talking about the one on the front of the crankshaft (holds viration dampener on)?

    Someone check on Rick (ap40haultruck),he's probably overwhelmed by the contents of this post! This stuff is his specialty!

    There is 7 pages of "Fits and Limits" for the ENDT866 in the TS442 servce manual (mine is from '75).The book is too big to put on my scanner,sorry.Maybe the Mack Museum can help? Head bolt torque-225 ft/lbs Main bearing torque(12 point)-350 ft/lbs Also says "main bearing buttress screw"-100 ft/lbs& "mainbearing buttress screw cover screw" (long & short)-80 ft/lbs. Big end bolt ? (Could you specify) Hope this helps.

    No kiddin',Mike! I've got an OVERDRIVE with that in it,somewhere! John Fischer was about one of the last people to get interior panels made for his F model,by the guy.

    I would love to see some of the guys I work with,shift a duplex or even the 6 speed trans' shown in our off-road trucks,today! Still wish they'd get me one!

    That '76 looks like an Adams Transit truck,Did you get it right from Del,Mike?

    All I can say is WOW! I had thought maybe the guy from E. St. Louis,Ill.,that used to advertise in OVERDRIVE did the interior. Very cool footage.Nice that the guy thought of filming it for all us to see 40 years later! Thanks 2stack for posting it!

    The old-timers used to call 'em Bi-Focal Internationals (fits)! There was a story in WOT awhile back,where Dallas Daggett (Daggett Truck Lines) said when they hooked one up to a van trailer,it looked like a "loaf of bread pushing an ant"!

    Seems to me there was alot of R-700's around here with 8V-71's in 'em,also.Celli Trucking Co. was one outfit that had some.

    Page 175 in the newer edition anyway,Matt.Its just a short version of the story.I do have another more in depth write up on it,must be in a BULLDOG magazine or something.

    Chicago area R model of the day goes to: Manning Concrete..I don't know,this poor RB looks neglected.How can they beat up a fairly late model truck like that? Hell, its not even in Nigeria(yet)!.....Maybe its looking forward to the boat ride?
