I can tell you one thing about the M drive transmission. Mack doesn't sell or manufacture a rebuild kit for it (Was told by our local Mack Dealer) don't know if they do now. But Dealer said they are built to be Bullet proof and if something happens that it fails The owner was doing something wrong with the truck. That's how good they are.

Tampon Tim and Omar, volume up! lol .....Hippy

You're welcome. It can be rough housed just have to push the right dash buttons like taking the hill assist and traction control out of the equation. Also should have a mud snow button which would help as well. Also the plus minus buttons come in handy for controlling performance of the M drive as well. No upgrades required

So, this part number is incorrect. I need to confirm what brgs as I told him the crank was std.

Ya, now I will find out .020 is NLA..... Because he looked up the wrong part. He said he was only there a few months and was a cumapart guy. He was supposed to check with his boss, but someone screwed up. Not me.

Thank you. We bought this last summer for a farm truck that my daughter could or all help for that matter could help move corn. I’ve got a nice 613 that I like but boy this thing really rides and drives nice. I like the fact that every one can get in it and it will work the same. Just can’t rough house it like you can a manual. It has the fleet shift pad I may take it and have that upgraded just to have some choices how it comes out of a field loaded.

That's Mack’s Brake leash. Your high low switch is above and that switch is to set the max Mph when you want it to kick in. Next time you're driving set your cruise and turn your engine brake on then hit that button. It should come up on your dashboard Screen "Brake leash" and it will have what speed you want it to come on at and what speed you want it to bring you back on to. Sorry I'm a little late for the party on this one. Example : Truck is governed at 70mph so cruise is set at 70mph Then Brake leash Parameters are Set at say Top speed 73 and the engine kicks on The speed lowest is 70mph so when the truck gits back to 70mph the engine brake shuts off. Basically a Volvo thing put in a mack truck especially in Automatics. Hope that helps I've driven several with the Indestructible M drive!! Very good Transmission especially with the right HP out front.

Yes

So would P2 be only two thousands? terry

It is supposed to say "P20" not P2.. I hope they work with you..

Ok. Could be.. i have been away from those models for 7 years or so and have forgotten a lot...

WTF..... So I pull a liner kit out and start to inspect the pieces (liner, piston, rings, pin). I take it over to the block to test fit liner. It slips right down into block!!! 😲😲😲😲😲 Apparently they sold me std OD liners. 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦 Guess that is why I got that itchy feeling when a "new guy" took my order. Yup, got screwed over. The box is marked "no return if open". They better!!!!!!!!!!! Can anyone decipher the part number? It isn't at +.020 liner that's for sure. Ugh ...time for a phone call monday morning. Dammit anyway.

I think that is on the 3 position engine brake switch. Off high and low. Read somewhere it adjusts like the differential between cruise settings and when the brake comes on coasting down a hill but really have no idea.

Wow, progress!! Looking good with it going back together.

After trimming the bad places there was just enough metal left to bend over. Thanks for all the suggestions. Tried to post a picture installed but it would not post.

I thought about it I’m most likely gonna be there

There were a few loggers around here that ran 8V92 Detroit's in their Superliner's. Detroit's were real popular around here.

Well these guys usually know a lot more than me. …im just a do it yourselfer but I had the same problem with mine around 20 years ago and a new governor did the trick best of luck

That 54 International COE in the picture needs a new home. Was driven in. There’s a 6 BT Cummins with trans that was planned to go in, it’s also available. If anyone knows someone who is interested?

If I remember Correctly Troy made it to Macungie with this Cabover Before he passed. He did everything in house. Stretched the frame, Paint,lights etc. Man did most of his own work on all his trucks through the years.

I hope so too.. we all have some good/great things to offer here at BMT. I know I have helped some, and some have helped me.. Like I always say.... Its a Brotherhood...

Thanks Jo Jo!! I try 😆 🤣 😂. I hope one day Youngin's will talk about me and share pictures online. Not that I do this all for the fame but I enjoy it and can't beat the money.

Here is a link to the manual, but they barely mention the T brake. Brake manual
