    Anybody have any experience with a 10 speed Spicer? I don't know anything at all about the Spicer's but i have been looking at a 2002 T600, with the N14 red top cummins thats got a small 42inch bunk,i'm thinking that this coming harvest may require some over-nighting in line. Wheathauler,would you buy another T600?

    Yes I am, the Wash. threw me off. :biggrin_2559: It has been approved and everything is in order and correct. I just have to go threw the mandatory waiting period to see if someone is going to protest it. :biggrin_25513: So hopefully I will have it in a couple of weeks.

    What are they asking for the T600? I love my ISX Cummins and don't think I will ever own a CAT again. With my 10spd and 3:73 rears I can run along their at 65 and average 6mpg. I can push it up to 75 and 80 with no problem and it pulls pretty dam good with a 90,000lb load. I miss my hood but my T800 is fun to drive and turns on a dime and getting around in some of these places that is a plus.
     
    Strider and dairyman Thank this.

    I like the T-600 but might go with T-800 the steps to get into truck are easier than T-600.
