maint1 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Does anyone have a source for Quadraplex parts, need some gears and bearings for the one in our LT. My job wasn't as much fun today as it usually is. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/47105-quadraplex/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 You might want to consider a used transmission even if you have to go to a one stick I know most of us like to keep the two sticks but from where I hear is safe dares alone can run to 400 a piece or more if they have to make them I won't up buying a 5 + 4 rebuilt for 350 bucks but offers like that don't come around every day got lucky but you can usually find a good one ready to go for around a thousand bucks good luck Bob Sent from my XT1096 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/47105-quadraplex/#findComment-347695 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main shaft, second on countershaft. May wind up putting another trans in it and keep the parts search going.

thomastractorsvc Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 no numbers to cross the bearings over to? Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

Probably can do that, want to see if I can get the gears before I tear it apart. Might wind up with a swap, have a good 13 but that isn't what I really want to do. Boss said maybe just stick the KT 450 and 13 in there so I have a pulley for the A/C. I need a sword to fall on. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/47105-quadraplex/#findComment-347842 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZB755V8 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Putting a KT in a LT would be a first as far as I know. That should actually fit but don't know if there is enough radiator to keep it cool. It that the black LT? 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/47105-quadraplex/#findComment-347889 Share on other sites More sharing options...
maint1 Posted October 5, 2016 Author Share Posted October 5, 2016 Yes it is we have another 47 Pete we need an engine for, I hear what you're saying on the Rad, I had looked at the plumbing issue and worked that out in my head, I'll have to check, thanks Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/47105-quadraplex/#findComment-347895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Where's the pics of the Red/black LTL from Texas with a 600 KT in it? Smith is the name? Met him at South Bend.

Dee Cameron had a LT with a KT in it also,many years ago,CCC Lumber,don't know if it's still around or not,maybe Mackdaddy knows,he also had a '20's Autocar cabover with a supercharged Cummins backed by a Triplex that he used well up into the 80's or later,pretty sure his son has it still.

Met him at South Bend. I looked at that truck in South Bend but the hood was closed, thought it was a 400 Cummins. Looked like it was a working dog or resently retired at the show. So the Rad is big enought to get one of those monsters cool. 👍 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/47105-quadraplex/#findComment-347957 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Yup, he never opened the hood. I don't recall exactly what all he does with the truck but I know he seems to get around with it. I was parked directly to the left of him, as he was in the isle and I was in the grass on the corner next to the ATHS forum tent with Eddy Lucast and Peter J Crook.
