    I had a '92 FLD single axle that had a 425 hp 3406E w/ a 10 spd. Hada flat top 48" bunk. Didn't put a dime into that truck except for oil changes.

    very reliable truck.

    Thats what I figured. I drove for an O/O with a '94 FLD 120, strong motor, pulled great. Can't remember the
    specs exactly, probably 3:73?

    My old Marmon had a 425 but with a 13 speed. Tough old girl that was always there for me, even in the dead of upstate NY winter with no block heater. Love that sound the old 3406 makes when there idling.

    Oh god you know it! Even after another driver got turned over in tornado alley. When I drove
    it the air system needed replacing, all sludge up from somebody else not draining enough

    Had a 425 mechanical 3406B. Loved that motor had oversized turbo and injectors in it. Would out pull any truck I have owned since including my old 600 cummins!

    The top two gears are switched, 9th is to the right and back 10th is to the right against the dash.
