    I am the proud owner of a B873SX tractor that has been in the family since new.Mack only made 75 of these trucks I've been told.I would like to talk with any other owners about there trucks.We had another one of these truck but that was sold.

    Why not leave it as is and make some money with it,before you spend it.

    Phila truck,next time you're in their yard see if they still have any of their BE-10B's left.I know they had either a old A or D model in the quarry up state.

    I am assuming the cab that is on the truck now is shot.Only because you are offering the we secord cab.Pic and price would be nice.

    Maybe I will use theB87 as the pull tractor.It has 9.10 ratio and top out at 72 mph.I know this to be true cause I was stop many years ago by Pa state trooper for doing just that early one Saturday morning with a D9 dozer on the lowboy.

    The only work this truck will see is pulling a trailer with some antique caterpillar tractors and the B87 Mack tractor that I'm doing.

    I would like not to change the transmission,the truck has only 74,000 original miles.My dad brought 20 of these trucks.
  11. hicrop10
    I have a 1979 r model with a endt676 300 series engine with 285hp.The transmission is the trxl107-low hold 5 speed.The rear ratio is 4.17.My question is to get more of a top speed.The truck tops out now at about 65,i would like to be able to cruise at 70.What ratio will I need? Thanks.
  12. hicrop10
    Yes,i'm one of the Durkin from Philly.
  13. hicrop10
    When is it?I would like to go only about an hour from me.May take my r model up,do you have to register your truck before hand?

    Trump

    hicrop10 replied to david wild's topic in Odds and Ends

    Just my thoughts but Trump and the whole Republican party better get their heads out of their ass or this country is going to be in the sh*ter for a long time. I don't want to even think of that b*tch being in the White House.The last thing that that no good son of a b*tch we have now is going to do before he leaves office is to give her a pardon. Again just my thoughts.

    Great looking barn.The father's day gift is great also,was it just a one and done or could more be had?
  17. hicrop10
    The paint looks great.Any paint numbers would like to compare with what I have.

    Those tires are around $12,000-$15,000 range. Back when me and my brothers were in business we were paying about $6000 for tires and they were for the cat 773 trucks,the trucks pictured are 777.773's 60tons,777 100 tons.

    That machine is storage bin for the paver.It holds about 3 loads of the asphalt in it so the paver has a continuous supply of material,it makes for a better road and the contractor doesn't need as many trucks.

    Yaworski B87 could be the twin to mine,it even has the big square radiator top tank.Which museum are these trucks in?Would like to visit.
  21. hicrop10
    I know he also have a couple of b61's as water trucks.He just stated a big dirt job at the ABE airport and is using his 50 year old Euclid belly dumps.
  22. hicrop10
    I have seen both of them at that yard.The yard is an old asphalt plant.

    Tell Herbie I'll come down and show you some pointers and running a lowboy.Nothing hard about it,it just like anything.Just got to make sure you have enough chains and binders.It's not like it was back in the good old days,i remember taking D9's with blade and rippers intact and taking them out to Maryland with no chains and binders at all,just put a 12x12 block behind the track.

    Great pic,wasn't able to make this year.The good thing is I was able to get some work done on the b87.
