    I have most everything loaded,I have to grease the M62A1 and M322 tomorrow as well as replace the front cab mount rubber cushions. I hope to leave out here at around 0730 or 0800 Wed morning. At this point,I think the whole combo grosses about 53,000 lbs!

    Turbo ID help

    Correct turbo for an early ENDT 673 Mack for the M39 series truck,updated version(different bearings),hence the A designation after the Mack part # 631GC559 It may also fit an early LDS 427 multifuel,I cannot remember if they run a wastegate or not.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I have worked on the M62A1 quite a bit this week to get it ready for the trip to Georgia on the 19th,( last time the wrecker left the yard was 2 years ago !). Just minor stuff,replacing flex lines,changing oil and filters etc. I have a few tires to swap before the trip as well.
