Superdog Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Got the Magnum MH home this week.I'd sure like to know what caused all this cab damage.There is very little on the entire cab that is usable,interior is pretty well trashed as well.I'm pretty happy with the rest of it,though.Has factory rebuilt 3:65 rears,with air lock power divider.Taperleaf suspension with fairly new springs and bushings,trunion is good,no cracks or welds.We only had it running briefly,but the E9 sounded good,has PTO with direct mount pump and full wet kit.nearly new steer tires 11R24.5's on aluminum,and floaters on the rear at about 50%.Lots of good parts for sure.

Mike Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I would say a good find for parts. I wondered if the frame is bent ? mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered if the frame is bent ? mikeI can find no evidence of the frame being bent.The frame is really clean,also.I bought this truck mainly for the engine to transplant into my son's '88 Superliner,way cheaper than rebuilding his E9.

BAD DOG Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Left side looks like she's been jack knifed , must have side swiped or been side swiped with something high in the process to do that kind of damage to the right side. does'nt look like it hurt the front wheel bumper or air tank though. By the way don't throw those aluminum air tanks out if thet're any good, very hard to find good ones for MH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxidyne237 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Must have been one fast COE.It has to do close to 100mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mack mhe9 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 11.24.5 lp 41 high inch tire times 2100rpm =86100, then divide buy .71 trans, 3.65 rears, then use this equation 336= 98.8mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
