The Fleet Status site is:
https://sites.google.com/site/unitedfleetsite/
At the site, you can find information about the interior features, livery, etc., for every plane in United's fleet.
To determine which plane your flight will be on go to mobile.united.com and then click on flight status. Put in the flight number for your flight and just have it use today's date (occasionally it'll say flight not operated on this date in which case just choose one of the other 3 dates it lists). In the address bar you'll see something like this:
mobile.united.com/FlightStatus/FlightDetails?carrierCode=UA&flightNumber=415&flig htDate=9%2F15%2F2015&origin=JFK&destination=SFO
https://mobile.united.com/FlightStatus/FlightDetails?carrierCode=UA&flightNumber=415&flig htDate=9%2F15%2F2015&origin=JFK&destination=SFO
Just change the flight date to match the day of your scheduled flight and then change the origin / destination as necessary. Once you do that look in the details tab under aircraft # and if they have assigned a plane it'll say something like #3506 and the type of plane. Once you know that go to the United Fleet website listed above and cross-reference the four digit number against the "aircraft" column under the appropriate aircraft type.
Keep in mind that things change as they get closer and sometimes either they won't have assigned an aircraft yet or it'll be assigned #0 if it's a few days away and they are anticipating aircraft movement.
You may also check the specific fleet variant of each flight at the United Cargo site under "Schedules & tracking". This data tends to be reliable starting 7 days in advance, but is always subject to change.

Bunky,
Just an FYI, the 789 seatmap is available but on the Fleet Website it's linked to the 788.

it was a pleasure flying these b/w GUM & HNL when UA routed them this way weekly back in Sep 2013 and being able to lie flat for a nice portion of the flight. It made those early morning flts out of GUM easier and provided for a nice afternoon nap flying out of HNL. Glad I got to experience it.

December 2, 2002 was my first ever international business class seat experience. I was a freshman in college and received a bump on an oversold LAX-ORD flight at Thanksgiving. I opted to stay overnight to fly the 772 with an upgrade to C the next day. I still remember how giddy I was.
It sparked a crazy decade of travel and premium cabin experiences. The end of an era.

N594UA (752) spent 3 weeks in MCN getting ready to be delivered to FedEx. And then it ferried to JFK this morning and is apparently operating a p.s. JFK-LAX flight today (UA766).

I don't believe MCN is used as a 752 fleet exit prep airport. Numerous 752 aircraft are flowing through MCN, many are the new p.s. configured aircraft probably undergoing routine maintenance.
N594UA is on the FedEx fleet exit list, but my list shows it at the bottom of the list, so it was probably in MCN for maint. Sorry for any confusion with the posting on the fleet spreadsheets.

How pissed would you be to get that aircraft if you'd paid four grand for a ps J seat?

Let alone the 4 blokes that were told "oh, you used an RPU, here's your boarding pass for a middle seat row >30"
