Truelove Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Anybody have experience with one of these. I found a dump truck pretty local for a decent price, but Google show almost nothing with a search. Are parts available?

Truelove Posted December 2, 2021 Author Share Posted December 2, 2021 91. Looks the same but a bit rougher looking. The only thing I have found is it's hot a vw/man cab. The seller says it has a cummins engine. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/68863-pete-265/#findComment-483949 Share on other sites More sharing options...

theakerstwo Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 One of them came in the shop a few years back with engine problems.I get the job and found it had a 8.3 cummins in it.Not long before that some one had replace the gears in the front.Maybe a cam and i found the cam gear had broken because some on had heated it til they was big blue spots on it.They could not get cam out for the front cab mount was restricting the cam from going forward enough to clear the mount.I just raised the front of the engine and the cam cam out. 1 Quote glenn akers Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/68863-pete-265/#findComment-483953 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayseed Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 2 hours ago, Truelove said: Are parts available? Driveline parts will be readily available. As has, been mentioned Engine is 8.3 Cummins either Roadranger or Allison Transmission & Rockwell (Meritor) Steer & drive Axles.. Cab Parts will be hard to get, Though. PS: were also sold as Kenworth K300.!

Truelove Posted December 3, 2021 Author Share Posted December 3, 2021 Thanks for the replies. I looked at it in the dark last night, ran great, couldn't drive because the clutch slave is shot. Speaking of shot, the cab is pretty far gone around the door sills anyways. if it's still for sale next week I'll check it out in the daylight to make sure the cabs not fixing to fall off 😬 The dump bed is really nice shape, it may be worth it for the bed and engine/tranny (I'm wanting to put a cummins in my 63 1ton power wagon) Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/68863-pete-265/#findComment-483989 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truelove Posted December 3, 2021 Author Share Posted December 3, 2021 Just saw the weight of the 8.3 it may be a bit much for the pw Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/68863-pete-265/#findComment-483991 Share on other sites More sharing options...
