  1. Making sure the Consolidated Freightways storage trailer doesn't sink into the lawn.
  2. I would say LJ or maybe a LM.
  3. 12 speed OD is .78 ratio. Low is 14.44. At 1800 rpm, you will be at 60 mph with 5.02 gears and 24.5 rubber. Dropping down to direct will be 47 mph.
  4. You can use grade GO-H 80W-90 or GO-H/S 75W-90. There is a drain plug and fill plug on the power divider. There is a drain and fill plug for the bevel gears on the carrier and there is a drain and fill for the axle housing. Fill top and bottom to the respective fill line. The bottom sprays oil to the top while in operation.
  5. Looking at udder things instead....
  6. Looks good Bob! Stop in when you can. There were 1,589 C models produced between 1963-1965 and was replaced by the U model in the Mack line up.
  7. If under normal driving the brakes are working well, the adjustment and lubrication of the cams is probably good. There is mega pressure from the spring in the brake chamber to engage the shoes so something is not dumping air like it should. Control valve or QR??? This Bendix info may be helpful. http://www.suspensionspecialists.com/techinfo/Bendix_Brake_Handbook_2009.pdf
  8. With the information presented, my sympathy is for the emergency workers who are now drawn into a legal quagmire.
  9. Fully equipped with all sorts of gear including a Geiger counter.
  10. Makes sense. Shared components certainly can help the bottom line in manufacturing.
  11. I am not familiar with this type of body being used by multiple manufacturers from a single source but it may have occurred.
  12. Plugged line somehow? Has this been going on for a while or all of a sudden?
  13. Sort of think it is Mack 1MR3484M which crosses to Cole Hersee 75600-07. There is a picture of it on catalog page 57. http://www.carquestprofessionals.com/catalogs/fleet_hd/COLE_HERSEE_CATALOG.PDF
  14. Plymouth humpback at Macungie displayed to the side of Watt's Mack sales tent.
  15. A pack of bulldogs.
  16. Yikes! Better put floaties on the Mack.
  17. I agree. The J. Edgar response was the answer to dirtymilkman's questions that has since been removed from the post.
  18. Politicians sure do like their Kool-Aid.
  19. Used to be seen making deliveries in neighborhoods everywhere.
  20. Only thing missing in the ad, "It is what it is". Good ad!
  21. Thinking the torque rating is around 2000 or so. The 12 spd can live behind some hot rod E-9s.
  22. Here is a link to some info. https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/44460-l-power-steering/
  23. Excellent! The picture is good too.
