I don't think there is right or wrong with 60/40 or 40/60. It really depends on all the variables. I have worked for the 60/40 plus fsc. Which was a great deal. But I am now with a new owner on a 40/60 deal that I think is the best. I pay for absolutely nothing out of my pocket. The owner pays...

Just a side note. This toll assistance only applies to standard tarriff customers and not contract customers. So if you go across the GW to pick-up a load for a contract customer. Not only will you not get the New York pay. You also will not get any toll assistance. And less FSC then the old...

You should be able to get your MB900 serviced at SPEEDCO. We take our's to SPEEDCO all the time. Only filter they don't carry is the centrifugal oil filter (spin filter) We carry the spin filter with us. But they have the other oil filter and the fuel filter. Is a good idea to invest in the...

I had the same problem with Freightliner Classic XL I had stretched. Dave is dead on with the solutions. Best thing to do is move the tanks mounts up higher on the frame rails. Tall rubber will also gain some clearance. But at a bigger price tag. Tall rubber will also raise the overall height...

Not sure about this stuff. But you never know??? www.phantomplate.com

Accept every load??? I been struggling with this issue all year. I used to strive for a good acceptance rate. But have come to the conclusion. That at the end of the day it is all about the money. If I am not going to make a profit off the load. Bottom line is I'm not going to haul it. I don't...

I guess i missed some of your post. Looks like you already changed speed sensor. Like I said in my other post. Dip switch's only calibrate the head. So that it reads the correct speed. As far as it putting your old mileage on your odometer. Ain't gonna happen. You will just have to make...

You should be able to set the dip switch's indentical to your old speedo head. All that does is calibrate the head so it reads correctly. The dip switch setting is dictated by a formula that includes such things as tire brand and size,gear ratios etc. There is a chart in the freightliner service...

Could be the fan temp sensor in the water manifold or a bad solenoid. But before you go that route. Check the binary switch on your AC dryer. Freighliners are notorious for them going bad and causing your fan too run non stop. The dryer is a black canister. On a century class if I remember...

I can almost guarantee you that you have a bad EGR cooler. They leak internally. You will not have any signs of a external leak. We are in a 05 Sterling with a MB900. And have had three EGR cooler failures. They seem to fail about every 70,000 miles. First time we had no power, check engine...

Just a suggestion. Might want to move the tag and make it a pusher. It will take the weight off the steer. When you have it down.

Check that truck out good before you take delivery or sign anything. I bought the first Class 8 stretch they did back in 2000. Although, I put almost a million miles on it before I sold it. It was the worst stretch job I ever seen. Maybe they have improved. But take a close look under the truck...

I had a similiar set up a few years back. Was a Yamaha 3500 watt generator. I had it mounted inside of a tool box. The biggest issue was air flow. (OVERHEATING) I modified the tool box where the two ends had doors on them that opened. And installed to large automotive electric fans. One as a...
