Topic: Dual adapter identification question

[BobJ]

Trying to figure out which adapter I have. Casting numbers on drivers side of adapter read 515905. On passenger side Marlin AA Crawler cast into adapter. Wondering where serial # located also?  Any info would be great. Thanks.

Sounds like it's a regular MC07 type adapter. That particular one is called an advanced adapters model. (That's the company that casted those for MC at one point)

That's great news. Thanks for reply.

I have the same one, same numbers, on my truck and wondered the same thing. Is this a good adapter?

I was hoping the 05 in casting didn't designate MC 05. (was going to sell if it was) I think MC07 is good news? https://www.marlincrawler.com/docs/mc07/index.htm

edit: Had another look and it sure looks like pic of MC05. I'm going by contour of forward flange lower right of adapter where "marlin A A crawler letters are cast in?

Where would I look for a serial#?

Is the mc05 really that bad cause I found this...http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/1821875-post32.html .

I asked this in another thread and never got an answer.

Thanks. If correct your linked page answered my original question. 350 mc 05's left in existence out of 4000 adapters made and I end up with one. haha Not sure how much worse etc? If in truck I would probably use but always be wondering about possible failure in middle of nowhere=tow bill or vandalism/theft.  My duals are in storage now, for the price I will order the newer style adapter.

Mine came on the truck I have, I guess I'll be runing it and hope for the best.

Maybe it is mc07? Have to wait for the marlin to reply, also answer the serial number question

If it has the single roller bearing, then yes it will be a mc05. Thanks glen
