I'm planning to go, but I never know until last minute.

We have annual D.E.I. training at the City. Funny thing is,,,,, all 4 of the Hosts are Black... No D.E.I. there... 🤫

We had one of those freaks in our warehouse in Sacramento… black chick they hired decided to be a man … long story short we had 150 employees there and everyone had to walk around on eggshells around this thing … what’s wrong with this picture… the freak wound up quitting after awhile lol good bye and don’t come back

Oh yeah, and there’s always that… bob

I got the lid off my pump and find this.. Little different from my old 237 pump rack. My wandering mind wants to tinker but I'm holding strong.....☹️. "I just want a little more..."😉

And for a few years Bob, they are transgender as well...

Nice going babba … bob

I heard this years ago on main stream just about every mass shooter is democrat ???? Bob

Bingo! eBay has 4.5" clamp with that old part number. Should have it here in a couple days. Thanks again!

What is a CO6 ?

And it doesn't lock at a certain speed. It provides special torque distribution at any (?) speed.

Yes, about that. Interaxle diff full lock was an option. Interaxle power divider (which actually is an interaxle differential of unique Mack design) is a standard feature of all Mack tandem bogies starting from early 40's years. It doesn't lock up two drive axles completely but acts specially providing 3 times (or up to 3 times?) greater torque to the non-slipping at the moment axle. Common diff provides 50:50 torque distribution. As long as you haven't found any switch with a tag of "interaxle lock - out" I suppose the truck doesn't have any. What is very common. To answer your question exactly you need to crawl under the chassis to observe the front portion of the diff housing of the front rear axle. In the area the prop shaft from the tranny comes to. There's a long housing to accomodate the pinion shaft. RR diff has it shorter since FR accomodate that power divider in it either and RR doesn't. So if the full air lock divider takes place you'd see a housing offset of the main housing with air line attached to it. If no of such and the pinion housing is simple cylindric shape that's standard Mack power divider (also called by people as automatic PD)

Yeah, it is a 592S, the sub model you don't need to know most of the time, it has to do with indexing the output gear and the pitman shaft. Those repair kits should work. Most times I only need high pressure shaft seal. The big question is if dirt has got into and scored the input shaft. When I've done mine, the only time I went deeper in was when the bushing supporting the pitman shaft was worn enough that I had to pull the guts out and replace the bushing and output seal. Many time I can replace the input shaft seal with the box in the truck and the output shaft connected to the steering.

I'll be looking for this one for sure.

Upps, I'm wrong. No balls in the thread in Sheppard. Even much simplier design. Those balls are the most of headach assembling Benz boxes.

Also there's a bit of results of on-line search. Repair kit for 592 is represented by Automann (China or Turkey?) 465.4024 or (possibly) another option here: https://suntransmissions.com/products/complete-gear-seal-kit-transtec-rh-sheppard-592-series-3-4-5518091-8305?srsltid=AfmBOorts27v7nDsEdYNOaM7l9WNbOqG15ELRbp1TAigeXZKWd2O1K_U Do those kits look as what could/should be put into 592?

Many thanks! Now I'm not blind! In general this style of power steering gear is familiar to me. I rebuilt a few integral units for Mercedes cars and G-wagens. Also a shaft with semi-round threads and circulating balls. Still not sure on rightness of identification of my box. I could locate the stamping today. There in the triangle near the adapter plate. 87H1540 and ST5 is written there. Also cast text can be read as 592S5-6 what may be count as 592-something. Does this guess seem correct?

Bob, no, no leftovers. I suppose you used all needed parts and I also suppose I will need the similar ones exactly. A question I'd ask regarding that haven't you saved the parts order or the invoice? I could use the seals ## from there and maybe a few other items.

apparently not impressed with our conversation...lol.bob

well have you tryed raneys,,,,i send everyone there,,,,,and mack dealers have gone to all internet i havent even been to ours here,,,,,with this older stuff,,,why bother,,,,,thier mainly handling the obvious later model stuff ,,bob

Ok thanks, trying for tomorrow to see what she tells us.

hi I have a 1995 Mack C06 but I can’t seem to find the Diff lock switch/button. I was reading the previous conversations and I gathered that they didn’t have the switch because it automatically locks at a certain speed? Can you elaborate and help me out please. thank you.

I just messaged you

60-80 P.S.I. fuel pressure at all engine speeds.

i will make fuel pressure gauge for sure and check at idle and under load. this Saturday going to check cooler leaks with shop air to build pressure. Shes not rolloin coal like my 237 u model but its noticeable on loaded up shifts. I have not done a visual on air cleaner it has a air flow gauge on side of filter housing, i dont know how accurate they are so i will remove air cleaner and check. Thanks guys give update asap
