Mikesbucketlistmack Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Does anyone know if external 7 inch fiberglass sun visors are available anywhere for a 1981 R model ? I want to paint it to match my truck. Thanks. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32781-r-model-fiberglass-sun-visors-7-inch/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeyk3d Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 When I was looking for mine a few years ago Mack only had the newer style.( was like a ball cap lid ) ( round).. I didn't like it.. Lund made the one I wanted and said no longer available.. Went to junkyard and had it taken off a cab.. 100$ I think I paid.. Ill send pic not sure if you can see it.. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32781-r-model-fiberglass-sun-visors-7-inch/#findComment-206227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Yup, Lund made the fiberglass visor. Salvage yard or used will be the source today. Would be nice if they would make a small batch of new ones every so often. I think with Lund's new (?) owner their is a lack of interest in doing so.

Mikesbucketlistmack Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 Thanks, guys. Nice DM 800, by the way, Big Dog. Is that just a straight pipe on your chrome exhaust, or is there a muffler attached somewhere ?

Joeyk3d Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 No muffler.. I just welded some 4inch pipe up and put a chrome sheild..I prefer a straight pipe on Mack .. It gives it jus the right amount of attitude 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32781-r-model-fiberglass-sun-visors-7-inch/#findComment-206366 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikesbucketlistmack Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 So are you saying that there is no muffler at all from the engine to the stack ? I want to do that to my R 600: just replace the stock muffler and curved stack with a monster stack but don't know if that's legal or not.

rsb502 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Its not legal but ive never known anyone to get a ticket for tampering with the EPA registered exhaust system on anything.
