  1. Thats a new one on me! 👍 terry Wonder if that W means wide?
  2. I don't know for sure, but it seems like the first puff limiters were not connected to the trans? terry
  3. Were early puff limiters no connected to the transmission? Terry
  4. My guess would be the rear suspension, very soft and leans real easy,ok for a hobby truck, but the rest don’t look to bad. Terry
  5. Have you ever seen a simple job stay simple! 😁 terry
  6. Yeah I have done it by myself too. Not no more, my skin has gotten so thin just a nick and I bleed all over, I sold my truck, but the last starter I put in I had blood dripping everywhere! Terry
  7. Two people, one with a rope around starter from the top, and one leaning over left steer tire to guide in, Terry
  8. The outside metal looks good, did you click on the links pics? The floors are gone big time! Terry
  9. That real hard bolt to reach, replace it with a 12 point head bolt, makes it easier. Terry
  10. Something really funky on that fan shroud, could it been that high for a Cummins engine? Terry
  11. Cool! Does it run and operate ok? terry
  12. Probably different offset on the rims, and yes I have seen that on a lot of DM’s with that tire rubbing. There are relief valves in the steering box and stops on the spindles, maybe the truck when new was set up with narrower front tires, and now the wider ones rub.🤷‍♀️. Terry
  13. I had a 237 engine that had a loose exhaust seat, ran quite awhile that way, had the pop,pop when you let off it or coasted with it, when I pulled the head you could see where it was moving up and down in the carbon buildup. Terry
  14. Was it loaded with a excavator or end loader, big difference on box damage. terry And also how well it was broken up before loading
  15. Beautiful bunch of Mack’s!👍. Terry
  16. Joey your comment on the poof poof out the exhaust, I once had a DM with a 237, when ever you backed off it or coasted down a hill it would do that, had a loose exhaust seat, ran a long time that way. When I eventually pulled the head you could see where it was moving up and down in the carbon buildup. Terry
  17. The B models that came without factory p/s had no u joints in steering column, factory p/s had one u joint right at steering box. Terry
  18. If the water temperature was that hot, wouldn’t the exhaust temps. Be higher? Terry
  19. Believe it's a Australian term for the hard nosed macks terry
  20. Can you check between lift or supply pump and injection pump to see if you getting fuel there? That’s where I would start. Terry
  21. I’ll bet at least countershaft bearings are junk. Terry
  22. the six speed is a direct trans. would not work good with the older rear ratios, the right model of the old style trasmissions are overdrive in both boxes. terry
  23. Have to comment on the trans. Statement about how many gears are needed, you do need more gears with a single counter shaft trans behind the 237 or 285 engine that series of trans will not take the lugging down them engines can do. Terry
