    yes, SK never had disc brakes.
    disc and ebs were introduced as serial equipment on Actros in october/1996

    @spsauerland are you able to look up KW part numbers? Just curious if K176-3243 is still available and if it is just the firewall or the entire cab?

    Yes I can, but not from my phone. I will look it up in morning for you. My guess on your steel cab most likely not available.

    Much appreciated! Not opposed to putting an aluminum one in it since its going to be a highway rig after this.

    P/N did not come up in the master catalog. P/N for aluminum firewall was K176-3242 but it may not be for sale anymore too. Attached breakdown of what I thought you are after.

    Thank you!

    It'd be awesome if it was available. Would save me a few hours not having to fabricate one from scratch.

    No longer available through Paccar. Time to check salvage. Twin sticks garage on you tube (he had thread on here too) has located quite a few A's up North.
