Folks,
Bought used 97 International 9200 single axle to pull fifth wheel with. It has Cummins M11 with Spicer 9 speed and 700,000 miles. Price was good so I bought it in Dallas and drive it home to Houston. Would like to find good mechanic in Houston or close by (Beaumont, College Station, etc) to inspect it and make sure all is well before I put it one the road. I have 97 2500 CC 4wd that does good job of pulling the trailer but stopping can be a probem (15,000 lbs) even with exhaust brake and good trailer brakes (triple axle).
TIA
Bobby
