Gliders with engines older then 2000 are elog exempt

My 13 is exempt, it's got a 98 Detroit 60 in it

 

I'm going to have to check the vin on the S60 I put in two years ago.....

Wouldn't that be nice!

 

How do you tell what year an S60 was built by the vin? I just went and looked at mine and I saw no dates or emission tags.

 

With the serial number from the Series 60 you can go to any Detroit Diesel dealer and get the year model of the engine, which is required by the EPA, and Carb to determine what level of emissions the engine has. If it is a 1999 or before, that truck will not be required to be equipped with an ELD. The stickers that are on the engine when it is produced frequently get faded or illegible. Detroit Diesel will sell you new ones and install them for about $100.

 

Thank you

 

FMCSA: Pre-2000 ELD exemption applies to engine model year, not chassis

 

Guess my 1980's 1 wire engine means I don't need to bother with one....

 

I've got a 2000 model year 379EXHD with a 3406E, serial # 2WS16746. Does this new ruling really mean this tractor is now exempt from the coming ELD mandate?

 

3406E TRUCK ENGINE
Engine Serial Number - 2WS16746 (Build Date - 05/13/1999, Test Date - 05/13/1999, Ship Date - 05/24/1999)
