  1. Going to be one hell of a birthday! Yup, check all the fluids especially the Deeetroit. Has it been upgraded to air brakes? If not, I would plan on doing a brake fluid change. Brake fluid absorbs water over time which will allow rust to form in and make a mess of the brake system.
  2. Check the chart on page 25 and it gives info for acceptable tire to rim use. http://www.accuridecorp.com/files/2012/10/Accuride-Wheels-Rim_Wheel-Safety-and-Service-Manual-ACC7-0002-Rev-4-06-22-12.pdf
  3. Good Job! The bare foot fuel pedal is a keeper.
  4. Super clean 1989 Mack R688ST.
  5. Leave your CXU alone. Buy an R model. Fix up the R model. You will be money ahead with fewer migraine headaches. My .02 worth of free advice.
  6. I believe it is for hauling rip rap stone which certainly includes granite.
  7. This Mack H633 in the orange and blue Roadway colors was on display at Macungie in 2002. It now resides at the Keystone Truck and Tractor Museum. The H633 model was produced between 1956-1958 with 408 produced.
  8. Should be able to get one at a truck transmission shop or a good heavy duty truck parts business.
  9. Don't have an exact layout. I find this Bendix brake book is very helpful in many situations. http://www.suspensionspecialists.com/techinfo/Bendix_Brake_Handbook_2009.pdf
  10. Should be. It says it contains anti-gel properties.
  11. Have had good luck with this product. Treats the fuel for winter time use. http://powerservice.com/psp_product/diesel-fuel-supplement-cetane-boost/
  12. Looking good on 24" rubber.
  13. Well, if I can't use air brakes than their road is going to get messed up when I throw the boat anchor overboard ........
  14. Plain red paint and then dressed in Dupont colors about 15 years later shown at Macungie Park.
  15. Broken belt in a tire? Bent wheel? Tire out of round? Does it happen only at certain speeds? Are all the spring bushings in good condition?
  16. Ebay and Craigslist usually have a variety of manuals to choose from.
  17. A nice and clean reliable money making rig! You really shouldn't park it on such an incline...
  18. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/clt/5893616130.html
  19. Have fun! Looks pretty clean.
  20. Looks Great!
  21. Great looking 1963 B73 towing a 1966 Thiele trailer. A CAT 1674 engine has replaced the original Cummins diesel power plant.
  22. Nice Unit! The R model deserves more than lawn art status. BTW, one of your driving lights is out.....
  23. This beautiful example was shown at Macungie Park. 1962 B615
