jervn4 Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago (edited) Hello all, im looking to see if anyone can point us in the right direction with some axle identification. Im at a student at a tech school in PA and we are in the process of converting what we believe to be a 1978/9 (motor is a 78 actual year of truck is unknown) R600 Into a service truck. In the process we replaced the camel backs with a single air ride axle out of a Mack Vision as well as removed the factory 5 speed and installed an 18 speed, with the eventual goal that the factory 237 come out and a 355 E7-Etech taking its place.. We are trying to update the front axle to have newer hub piloted or bud hubs, possibly using a whole new axle. We identified the axle in the truck to be a FA534C according to the stamping on the axle, bearings that came out of the hubs are timken 25572 and 39585. at the very least we are shooting to remove the daytons and get a regular hub piloted hub on there. but should that not be possible we also are curious if there is a axle that is interchangable with the one we currently have that would already be hub piloted. From our research we havent come up with very much in regards to this axle and was wondering if anyone had any insite to what we are looking at. any helps greatly appreciated.
