0 Nobody454 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 https://www.pgadams.com/ I know several people who have bought frame rails from here, and are very satisfied with their products Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 JoeH Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Does the dm800 frame splay out to fit around the engine and trans? They can't do the splay, only straight rails, but they can do varying depths. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have sent a info request to the Mack museum back in February but haven't heard back looks like the steer is at least 20k and the drivers are at least 55k 9:10 ratio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bistrians Billy Mack Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 18K front axle w/old style grease-lubricated wheel bearings. 23K front would have 12 lugs. 55K bogie. Should be a stamped # on the axle 'bowl' SWS 68C or SWS-681C (C if s-cam brakes; W if wedge brakes). 65K bogie would be SWS-592C(W) & would have fewer but thicker spring leaves.
