How many 8.3’s? They’re not a typical wet sleeve design
Hairline cracks in the tops. Probably just from age as they had 13000 some hours on them.
Yes cracked on top between valve and freeze plug. Was a real mother to find the first time but finally did. And these only have 1 o ring. Probably...
Suppose I can try that next time but book said oil. Part of the reason I’m also asking in my long winded post is I’m wondering if the metal to...
I’m also fairly certain it was not leaking before I pulled head because I had regulated pressure on it all night before I pulled it with bucket...
Also, I don’t know if there were any different block styles but this is in an early magnum tractor so would be early 90s style one of the first ones

Just had an occasional clunk start in my 94 Mack with Eaton super 10 and Mack rears. When it does it it’s a consistent clunk every second or so...
At the front axle spring hanger? Is it a certain model or a certain year of models?
Seems there’s a ton of opinions and then some out there about frame modification. I have a good grain box on a junk truck I’d like to swap over...
well that wouldn’t be terrible. Was thinking I saw a transmission on google and it said like $1500 core charge or something
I could do it myself, but yes time is money. If it’ll be a big job then probably not worth it. I would assume if something happened to my 9 speed...
Back housing wouldn’t be a big deal I don’t think. What’s the other bits?
Model is rtx-16709b
Good? Bad? Waste of money? Just curious if anyone has opinions
