    Can you guys please help me out with any advice that you might have. Some possible issues with valves? What should I look for?
    It's a 730 with a single bunk. Can I get a second one and mount it? I'm asking because I saw some 730 with 2 bunks.

    The first issue i see is the low hp, other than that most of the early epa volvos had lots of problems. Every one I drove did, but they were swift trucks so ymmv

    I know I saw those blue trucks with those lines on the road, just can't remember))) I think they were pulling tankers. Definitely not dryvans

    On a VNL730 that is not equipped with a Top Bunk, you can go to the Stealership and order the parts for one, or try a Local Salvage Yard.
