Vibration that 2 mechanics and Mack dealer can’t figure out
theakerstwo replied to RobM626's topic in Engine and Transmission
The city I live near is full of one horse shops that could not make it at a dealer and now have a shop of their own.I watch guys take their trucks there and end up running into same as this problem has.So many guys I work with ask me ever so often what can we do and I always tell them ever one that owns a truck and cant work on it their self is having same problem with repairs.If you can do your own repairs then don't keep the truck. -

2000 rd688 e7 400hp starter silonards help
theakerstwo replied to Moparmike's topic in Engine and Transmission
Before some one ask you need to tell us what starter model you have.It very well could be that you would be better off replacing the starter. -
I did one of those to my truck and i gained about 500lbs.

That is a freightliner suspension.Old like in the 60sand 70s

If its got a dynotard brake on it then it could have a oil leak inside the covers.

You do understand that this engine is a maxidyne.If i had a maxidyne i would not want it to be in the 400 hp range.If it was a not a maxidyne then i would use a 400/427 Vmac injector and turbo plus max out the rack on the pump and set timing at spcs for a 400.

Thats something i have never seen and maybe because i cant remember being inside of the five speed.

I have never seen a two counter shaft macktrans.

The biggest problem i have run into when changing cabs is thru the years people have added wires and hoses and routed them their way. -

8 LL from high to low grinding
theakerstwo replied to MACKTRUCKS4's topic in Engine and Transmission
First find out if the air pressure is staying at about 60 psi.If so and it grinds then remove rear box on the trans and repair.If the pins on the scycho are broken then two things will cause that.One is drive line and U/joint angles and also shifting the hi/low range in reverse.
