Super heavy duty - 8 spoke wheels, 14x24 rubber, walking beam suspensions. truck is in nice shape.

WLb30p Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Jimbo, Would you happen to know the model number of that DM800 you took photos of? Matt Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12764-big-dm-800/#findComment-50533 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaddeusW Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 There is nothing better then a DM800 for heavy haul (well maybe an M series:lol:). Those trucks could probably run for another 50 years no problem. Quote -Thad What America needs is less bull and more Bulldog!

joes mack Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 i would love to have that truck with a 22 footx102x102 coal bed for a off road truck would never have to worry about being over loaded that truck could haul anything you could put on it without breaking a sweat. would probabily need back surgery before long though it would be one rough ride. lol. joe Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12764-big-dm-800/#findComment-50539 Share on other sites More sharing options...
usmcjimbo Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 Jimbo, Would you happen to know the model number of that DM800 you took photos of? MattI don't know - the plate inside the left door was missing and I really did not have the time to poke around on the truck.

David Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 http://www.macktrucks.com/assets/mack/ModelProduction1.rtfJohn, This list from the Mack website shows 25 units built for the DM865. Mine is 1002. If this one is 1033, then they must have skipped a couple of numbers?

David Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 John, My truck has 65K rears and a triple frame with no rust. I believe it has spent most if not all it's life in the south. It was owned by Mayfield in Atlanta when that company was purchased by Guy Turner (aka Turner Transfer) in Greensboro. Some place along the line the Cummins was removed and a 12v71 and 6 sp auto from an off road rear dump was shoehorned in. We are installing a Big Cam 855 and Mack trans with a Spicer aux. It will be very close to original. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12764-big-dm-800/#findComment-51044 Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 John, Maybe they skipped a lot numbers? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12764-big-dm-800/#findComment-51189 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdthoren Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I have seen cancelled orders or model changes where the original serial number was crossed out on Mack's records and a notation was made of the cancellation or change of model for the order.Scott Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12764-big-dm-800/#findComment-51196 Share on other sites More sharing options...
