Joe Ditchkus Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I took the front tires off of my B-67 with 22" rubber. It has been awhile since I changed them ,if the tires are not centered you cannot get them off the spoke they hit the fender. I do not know if wheel opening is smaller on B-67's with the short nose compared to B-61's. Anyone know ? Thanks Joe D.

Underdog Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Don't know for sure, Joe but from pictures I'm looking at looks like a totally different fender, cut shorter to match the hood. I wonder how many had 22" rubber?!? Seems that may be rare for a B67.GreggSent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/40492-b-67-with-22-rubber/#findComment-293540 Share on other sites More sharing options...
66dc75 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 B67 Fenders are about 10" shorter than regular B model fenders. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/40492-b-67-with-22-rubber/#findComment-293541 Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarnall Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 My father's B66 had 9.00x20 rubber on it when he got it. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/40492-b-67-with-22-rubber/#findComment-293549 Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 The whole fender is indeed shorter and I "believe" the radius of the wheel opening is slightly less.A friend had a B-65 with the little larger fender than the B-67 running 24.5s and it sure looked like the tire would hit the lower rear part of the fender opening but it never did. It was really close! Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

Joe Ditchkus Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 Thanks for the replies.If wheel is not centered it hits fender when trying to take it off hub. I always thought Mack had about the best engineering until this. Mack must have hired a Paccar Engineer for measuring B-67 wheel openings.

Underdog Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Joe, you are changing tires, that must mean you are getting ready to drive to Macungie.
