The 60 inch spread is Ontario spec's, if you want to have enough axle capacity in BC go with 69,000lb tri drive, in Alberta they run Sisu axles in tri drive.

[@danepatterson8785]

I didn’t think fender extensions were required my company has 2 trucks without them and we ain’t never been stopped

[@tituspullo1957]

Next one he builds will have three sticks.Main transmission with two auxiliaries.I saw the same B model Mack at a couple of truck shows here in Pa.If I remember right the owner said it had a 5 x 4 x 4 from the factory.The main trans and the first auxiliary were bolted together then a driveshaft to the second auxiliary which was mounted at least 3ft. behind the cab.If that doesn't make a truck driver out of you nothing will.

[@SteveCarbone]

true

[@MrRMT1986]

A 72-speed transmission!?!?

[@AttainingExcellence1]

Yes I like to know more about it, I been in the truck business for long time and hear about no 72 speed 🤔

[@OscarMikeF150]

18 speed with a 4 speed alternate. The 4 speed is like have 4 different differentials you can runout 18 speeds in. Great for long hill climbs with super heavy loads where you get the odd reduction in grades and can pick up a couple of gears that you wouldn’t be able to do with a str8 18 speed.

[@hotrodrigs1]

Yes,that transmission is the Best. Last We had was a 13speed with a 4speed air auxiliary. Badass

[@shortthrow50]

TOTOYO 3.0 listening isn’t your strong suit is it? He clearly said it’s a 18 speed with 4 speed auxiliary

[@SteveCarbone]

18 in aux 1, 18 in aux 2, 18 in aux 3, and 18 in aux 4.

[@funfun3015]

Good Lord! Shes is a beast. That color is hot. Good to over compensate. Heavy Haul is the way to go

[@SteveCarbone]

[@c165vin]

I love the spread and the long 5th wheel slide. I also agree with the heavy axle with the pumps. This is a real nice heavy duty haul tractor. The pusher axle is perfect with the super single. A truck after my own heart ,18sp with a 4sp auxiliary, no 2sp rear? Does the front tires extend out past the front fenders? I'm a big fan of your special order trucks.

The tires, axles, frame, pusher, engine, transmission, 4 speed rear ends, literally everything.

[@SteveCarbone]

Good question!

[@Stephen-carr]

Basic heavy haul spec is 46k lbs axles. From there it's options to add to it like double frame or a tag axle. All but 1 of my trucks are heavy haul spec. And we made it heavy haul to keep them the same. But running tru axle dumps we have to have it to haul the weight.

So do you buy these trucks from Peterbilt and then do them up with the extras for customers? Or do you work with Peterbilt and handle final assembly/delivery?

[@SteveCarbone]

I work for the #1 389 Peterbilt dealership in the country

[@damient3019]

Do you guys spec heavier than this in the states? From what ive seen 46,000lb rears are big over there. Standard spec in Aus for a "heavy haul" roadtrain/float truck would be 52,000lb rear and if we want heavy duty we go 6 rod springs over bags. Rated GCM of a truck like that would be 310,000lb in your money.

I have done some 52 rears but our road and bridge laws are so different from yours is why you dont see many

18-18-18-18

one gear at a time

[@MikeFL2TX]

Depending on weight and road conditions pick the auxiliary hole you need and run it as a 13 or 18 spd. Once in 18, split to 17 and move the auxiliary over to the 4th hole and let it shift like normal. Then when ready shift it like any other 13 or 18.

[@ivebeenbamboozled9210]

Could you what the gearbox looks like? A clockwork monstrosity

If your referring to shifting from 1st through 72, then no you wouldn't really be able to do that based on gear ratios in each box and hole.

So all the comments on 72 gears being "too much" or picturing running from 1 to 72.... I never drove a set up like that but I see it as multiple ranges for a wide variety of conditions. Deep down torque for an oil field combined with 75 MPH cruze on the interstate to get it there. The old 15 Road rangers had deep reduction. You could use all 5 deep reduction gears delivering on a construction site. Or if pulling away with a heavy load rin 1, 2, 3 in deep reduction. Then shift up into low but then you would go back to 2 low... and even then you needed to blip the throtte a bit to match revs because it was only a 1/2 gear up....

how much it will cost
