This is all the old Mack manuals show. No other details, just specs for bearings and such. I rebuilt my Triplex using similar picture and the instructions in the book. I made three videos showing the process. I didn't mess with the covers as they were not an issue.

Im always a fan of Camel Back, Hendrickson Walking beam and HN.. I found the HN to be easy to repair, done a bunch on trash trucks..

So basically an electronic levelling valve. Myself I prefer Camelback or walking beam, or even Haulmax rubber block. But here in Ontario Canada, I've learned through experience that the only reliable way to make these stupid S.P.I.F. automatic lift axles work is with air suspension. Because with mechanical suspension they have to have load cells to work them and they just aren't reliable.

O/D load violations can be staggering. If they can find a reason to "invalidate" a permit, fines go back to legal limits. Not for the faint of heart.

Wow I thought 150 for a log violation was bad lol It was actually way behind I lied to the inspector… I thought it was going to be much higher… this was quite a while ago bob

As far as weather it has been around normal here today a little under normal with a little wind

Wow ours was a little over 100 bucks but we usually use the pellet stove for heat but that’s another 240 a month for the pellets

You might just have dried out fork slide bar I’m sure you’ll get all kinds of reply’s good luck

yeah I know we’ve moved on to different story But I was thinking from the start… if the president wanted to cut corners,,, he should’ve dumped hegseth

Bought my 2006 F150 in the middle of that next phony shortage only good thing I got the truck really cheap on account of it… crooked SOBs

I have a ‘58 B-61 with a duplex transmission that wants to hang up in 1st gear. I suspect it’s a worn detent/ball. Does anyone have a parts manual with an exploded view showing the 1st detent area ? Would appreciate a pic of the page(s). Thx

I was tempted to turn the AC on today, but I didn't. Our electric bill seldom gets over $200, but it has been the last 2 months. We had unusually cold weather though, so it should be coming back down. My son lives in Pamplin and his bill was over $650 last month and his new one that he hasn't even gotten yet is also over $650. He lives in an older 2 story house, probably not the best insulation either, so that's probably why. I have a step daughter who lives in Pound, VA. and her electric bill was over $800- wow!

Thanks for the info !!

Last Monday at the regional convivence store chain where I deal Diesel went from $3.19 to $3.99 in the 2 hours I was at the dentist!!!!

80+ here today, so I've been busy. I washed my car, Buttercup, and the Zinamobile. I thought about washing the Mack, but that's as far as it got- thinking about it. wyze_product_share~2.mp4 Zina's going to play bingo at the bingo playing place for a benefit on Saturday, and my sister, niece, and sister in law are coming from Cumberland to play too. She's going to drive the car because you have to go through a kind of narrow underpass under the railroad tracks and apparently it's better to mash my car in it than it is the Zinamobile.

A interesting letter for the cook when you get home Paul

I remember back in late 2007-2008 being in Idaho, filling my tank and getting a little cash and writing a check for 1 large. Clerk looked at me and said 'If the bounces it is a felony". Yeah, we've been there before, and it was right before a fall.

I was mainly citing the cost of diesel since bottle hauler dropped 1g for 230 gallons. That same 230 gallons would be anther $203 if it was purchased here. 😩

...and I said the other day "I should take the Mack down to Express Lane and put some fuel in it", then I said "no, I'll do it tomorrow", then tomorrow I said "I'll just do it Monday", then Monday it was raining, so "I'll do it tomorrow"... still haven't put any fuel in it. 🤣

I would use at least grade 10.9 flanged, fine thread, hex head bolts and flanged, distorted thread lock nuts.

we also have a very high county tax,,,,that nobody seems to know where it goes,,,except for the obvious

Oh boy do I envy you guys.Converted to US dollars Diesel is now 9.48 a gallon over here.....Think the Cruiseliner will be parked up for a while🥶.... Paul

Yes, you can use regular frame bolts to reinstall. They dont have to be huck bolts.
