At work we have an AD45B and since new it's been trouble. The engine rattles like mad and constantly breaks ac braket mounts. The front cover has been changed 4 times due to cracking but since changing from alum to cast it's been ok. Always leaking coolent, the newest fix is a peice of wood wedged between the cooler and lower rad hose. Truck is now up to 5400 hours so cat has done well avoiding the truck. The operators complain all the time about it as well, have to be reving above 1500 rpm to do anything.
Just wondering if anyone has experience with these trucks or even just the engine?
I'll see about getting some pics.
There is a chance we just got a lemon but who knows. We will find out as I was told we ordered another one.
