Just drove it around yard @ work, transfer case won't stay in high so that is why the tow home. Engine acts "new", just been setting I think since 1989 when rebuilt. Frame has some rust, but not bad, looks like it sat on a dock or something with salt mist or air on it. Cab is almost rust...

Pics of heater parts.

Late pictures in yard at home.

New MEP-16 we just got. Was on E-bay in the next town over (Milford). Hate to tell you how much (little). Built in 1969 and rebuilt in 1989 (has CARC on engine per stamp) with an hour meter reading of 80+ hours. Unit runs great and made power at the side plug outlets after I fiddled with the...

Pics of our 1.5 set

Will try for Monday with pictures of the set and control panel. I assume inside also.

Truck does have rebuild tags on the engine and turbo dated 1989. Mileage shows about 13,000 miles, which I assume is since the 1989 rebuild. Frame rail on right side is factory cut to clear air and hydraulic pumps which was only done on the Mack powered trucks. Trans is OD unit and I think is...

Promise photos by Monday!!

Will try drilling a pinhole in the plug we put in the right side front air line to see if this works. We don't go fording with the truck so a pinhole should work OK.

Calling cranetruck!! I know you have worked with and tinkered on the heaters for the MFs, any ideas?

Took one photo of the tractor in the yard, but batteries died and didn't have any at the house to finish. Sorry, will try this weekend.

I took some pictures of the inside and outside of the rear tires (duals) not the M812A1 to show the deep dish wheels and the different mounting of the spring plates to the axles. Standard trucks have the spring perches much closer to the backing plate. The middle picture just shows how close...

Have had a hard time determining what year (& make) the new Mack powered tractor is. The data plates have been replaced and some are even blank aluminum. Sanded off the front axle pumpkin under the tag to see if there is a date stamp. Only thing showing is "2669 NK 2", with the NK struck over...

Thanks, I thought that there had to be a good reason why the glad hand had a vent. Will try and vent the line and see how the lights act then.

Used the new unit for the first time to charge and boost new Mack powered tractor. Runs great, showing 50-75% load @ 28 volts on charging, but kicks out the CB when you crank the engine too long. Likes gas too, 1 gallon in about an hour. Batteries ar mostly NG so high rate of charge is not a...

Will try to get more pictures @ home in driveway as I remove parts.

Following truck again today on the road (loaded with 4,000 gallons of river water or 33,300#) and the brake lights still stay on for over a minute after the driver lets off. Air tanks are empty of water & MC not dragging. Have noticed on new tractor that right front glad hand cover has a vent...

Great job, and even the right color!

Bridge truck wheels are 10" wide by 20" with a very big off-set. I don't even think that they will bolt up to a standard 5 ton with out spacers.

Sorry, I didn't mention that the motor is a Mack. Did in the other post on the trip home, so just skipped it on this one.
