Supermutt Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) Looking to see if anyone can help me identify the rears on this truck I purchased. The truck shop says they are 38’s. The vin number says 44k ? They also do not have rubber trunion bushings. The entire thing has me perplexed. They say it’s an e7-300, vin says e7-350, they say Mack 9 speed and vin says 13/18speed Mack. I am I am very confused. Thanks for any help. I have attached the only pics I have. My apologies. Apparently I have reached my limit on photos and can not figure out how to delete some to gain back room. I have only attached 7 photos ever. Not much allowed.

mrsmackpaul Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 With out a photo it's gunna be a challenge for me So maybe the photos are to many pixels, I know this can happen and they wont load up Try emailing the photo to your self as this reduces the pixulation (is that even a word) a fair bit, they are still clear enough for a phone or computer though Paul 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/72996-1996-mack-dm688s-rears/#findComment-533895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 the 688S should be a 350 engine.. I bet 44K suspension,,, if the shift knob has a red splitter on the left side, its a 13 spd,,, gray button, 18 spd.. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/72996-1996-mack-dm688s-rears/#findComment-533908 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supermutt Posted July 1, 2023 Author Share Posted July 1, 2023 Thanks, how did you figure it should be a 350 for that model ? Just curious, always need to learn even @ 59 lol. It’s funny you mention the shifter. I blew up an interior pic and saw gray on the left side and black facing forward. So I knew it wasn’t a T2090. It has 4.17 ratio. 38’s on a DM did not make sense with a 16,500 steer. But I guess ya never know. Good thing is it’s 100% mechanical 😁.

Solution Joey Mack Posted July 2, 2023 Solution Share Posted July 2, 2023 You wont find it... I tried and wrote a post about it.. Just go and donate $25.00 to BMT, and it will be fixed.. Small price to pay, for all that they provide for us here.. Use Pay-pal.. jojo Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/72996-1996-mack-dm688s-rears/#findComment-533972 Share on other sites More sharing options...
