jakebrake86 Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 Yep.... I think they're asking $17,000. It was bought new as a dump truck by Jimmy T. Woods in Memphis. They've always been known for taking great care of their equipment. They pulled the bed off a few years ago and started pulling bridge beams until a month or so ago when they traded it and another truck in on two new Western Stars. I sure hate to see this one go to Africa....

slpwlker Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Funny they do not know the trans. It is either a 8LL or a 15 speed. Blue splitter button is the tell tale Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29917-89-rd-triaxle-on-truckpaper/#findComment-164083 Share on other sites More sharing options...

220cummins Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 That's a nice looking heavy haul tractor. I like the lift axle and headache rack along with the drive tread on the steers. . Yeah you can tell it was a dump at some point with the rear of the frame and It looks like the hoist tank is still in front of the lift axle on the passanger side.

jakebrake86 Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 They told us it's a 13 speed.. I haven't been up there to look at it yet, though. My bet would be 15, though.

My bet would be 15, though.Might be a 13 I moved a shit spreader on an old rinker Cornbinder mixer chassis. was a 13 trying to remember the shifter. It was set up like a round knob 13 but with todays shifter. Think the split or deep reduction was back, 3L then shift like a 9 speed. I just don't remember. been 6 years since I moved it. Just don't see those anymore. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29917-89-rd-triaxle-on-truckpaper/#findComment-164145 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakebrake86 Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 Okay, stupid question: My RD runs 24.5 rubber on spokes, just like this truck. I've noticed over time that the hubs on the back drive axle have thicker spokes than the hubs on the front drive axle. Same case with this truck, except on the left side, it looks like somebody did a brake job and got the hubs reversed. I always just thought my truck had something mismatched on it, or is this the way Mack designed it, seeing as the rear axle does most of the pulling?
