The t-paper is what I am basing the low <750k overhauls. And while I think Burky's comment is funny as can beI see DD's and Cummins and the afformentioned kittys too. Just add a keyword of rebuilt, overhauled or frame in the T-paper and you'll see what I mean. I guess I am just shocked at how high the number of repaired engines there are at such low milage. Sure makes you wonder what the rest of the truck is like if they abused the motor like this. Also show why most of those owners are probably out of bussiness.
Series 60 New Turbo # 789,857 miles, Clutch, Flywheel, Pilot Bearing Clutch fork & Brake # 723,694 miles, In Frame Overhaul # 607,936 miles, Replaced Head # 569,713 miles, New Charge Air Cooler # 546,747 - Records Available

The problem is sorting out when those overhauls were done. 1990- 2000; some of these trucks might have 2 mil or more on them. We need to be able to compare rebuilds say with less than 600,000, 700,000 1,000,000 you pick the number. see what we come up with then. And you never know how many of the others need a rebuild. -
Diptroit 56 and CAT 20.......................... I REST MY CASE!!!!
Oh thats right, I was told to be be quiet............... oooops
For the record its puzzled me as to why there are so many "low" mileage trucks being over hauled. Are there really this many folks taking that bad of care of their trucks? -
I didn't go into specifics of under 5, 6, 7... etc. Used 1million as my base figure since that was the general perception of acceptable milage before overhaul or in-frame.
PS Don't get too ####y there Brick. Using the same search data but opened search to include sleepers and daycabs since they are predominantly used in vocational work..
Mack = 4 hahahahahahahah -
