    Wanted: Used lift gate

    DT 530 engine

    I don't think they carry any other brands..they're a International dealership that just happened to get a real good deal from Navistar a while back during a closeout...what gets me is the engine build date was in 2009...in case I failed to mention! they'll have 2 engines remaining after I get mine.

    DT 530 engine

    Hey thanks Rocketman! I forgot about that place...I think I'll try and get the service mgr. at the dealership doing the R&R for me to verify that my core is indeed a serviceable core and maybe that will be useful in selling it. I'd also like to let my fellow expediters know that I found a...

    DT 530 engine

    called everyone I needed to call and so far it seems that the engine is almost a perfect match other than the torque being about 100 lbs. less and it is set up for a Eaton 10 speed so the bell housing and flywheel will need to be swapped out. So....does any one out there need a serviceable...

    DT 530 engine

    the engine I found is a dt530 (new) and it comes with a ecm unit on it, that's part of the reason it baffles me.

    DT 530 engine

    I'm looking at buying a new engine for my International 7400 with a DT530, the problem I'm having is some times the engine is called a DT530 and other times it's called a DT530E, Is this the same engine? or are there differences in the two? My truck came with a Dt530e and the new one I...

    How's it Going at Landstar?

    Brisco you brought up a good point! I'd like to know just how many loads did Phil find on his own (sister loads) 98% of the loads we get are offered to us by agents, a mere 2% of the loads are found on Landstars load board....these percentages used are only an estimate.

    How's it Going at Landstar?

    I know there's a lot more to this story than has been revealed and what happens to some won't be happening to all those hopefully jumping ship unless LEAM is buttered up again. That's all I'm going to say at this point.

    Deer Whistles

    I think they work! When the deer are in rut and being chased no deer whistle is going to stop them. Another thing to remember is to wash them ever so often....if they're pluged with bug parts they won't work either.
