Have you talked to a Dr about your problems? That pic makes me think I need a tetanus shot.

We have a 2012 freightliner m2 112 with a isl. Emissions are deleted but the cooler is still on there. I'm thinking the cooler is starting to leak. Is there a way to pull the cooler off and cap the manifold, like the pickups. Or do we have to swap the manifold.

Anyone think that looks like a steel rail inside of the aluminum rail?

Something going on, looks like lots of extra bolts between the plate and next crossmember too.

I will post the build sheet later, it list the aluminum rail as well as a heat treated rail from the factory, but that seems so odd.

Still haven't went and looked the thing over in person.

Is the rear window in that a model abnormally large?

This was our project last week, finally leg room in a modular cab.

Looks like there's room for living quarters on that thing!

Not real sure, the truck was a 36” crawl thru sleeper truck when new, I don’t think any of the sleeper openings were that wide but I don’t know for sure.

Picture is deceiving, not much more than a 36” would fit.

Looks a lot more than 36" from the cab to the trailer!

No tires on front drive, it’s essentially the same length as the 79 I sold last

Just realized were talking about different trucks! I'm referring to the cabover 1066 posted!

Yep I believe there were 6 of them that went to the scrapyard. I hope you get some use out of it.

There is a guy close to me that ended up with the only junk long hood out of the bunch, the rest were standard hoods besides some of other trucks there, they tore the cabs off of what was left with an excavator and piled them up.
