bought another one

Congrats,

We just last month picked up the old iron, 1999/2000 Peterbilt with an 3406E, 5k since in frame...
OLD Pete is now hauling the heavier runs and the 2007 freight liner, D15 auto is picking up the slack ...

Congrats on the rig. Cant wait to see pics of her.

This thread shows me how much i thought I knew everything about CAT motors. I never heard of the 5ds prefix engine. So is this engine that has the multiple front cover gaskets that are known to leak over time? If it does and this engine was rebuilt not to long ago you should be good to go. Congrats on the truck and would love to see pics also.

 

so super hauler if a person was going to do a glider would you just go with the 7cz versus a 5ds because of the updates to block and front cover? Forgive me if this was asked somewhere else on here.

 

Hi superhauler, " she will come around, she always does". Hmmm, where have I heard THAT before. One day, my ex-wife, and others, I'm sure, didn't come around, and 17 years went down the tube. Anyway, good luck, I like older iron too, although, your idea of older iron differs greatly from my idea of old iron. (See my '72 Pete below, gone now)
