I think you are getting a Volvo parts man, there is a minor kit- o rings, poppet, detents, grease. then a major kit that has the drum w/lever. I haven't got the major in a while but I just got the minor 8 mos. ago

Ken: nice thought on a BMT insurance fund, but I think our national debt is a small number compared to all of us wrenching on rusty iron and having to go to the e.r. for limb and or digit replacement. I mean just look at Vlads wheel polisher, now multiply that times the number of members (Detroit owners multiply times 2 more bad shit can happen to them) get total. Then multiply times the number of winfall wimmin with s.t.d.s and this will be your annual contribution to the BMT self insurance fund

did you install a mack repair kit in the shifter or just o rings?

I cannot believe the cylinder is still holding together I have seen a lot fail from less stress than that

I think your supply air for the compressor comes from the eng intake air, that said does the truck build air in a timely manor? if not you may have a failed valve in the compressor. you could try a d.o.t. compressor recovery test to see if compressor is functioning in a safe capacity .

well now that runs and the pump shop wants your beer money you could try pulling the 9 bolt side cover off the injection pump and see if the barrels turn as you move the throttle link, if they don't move carefully caress the rack fore and aft and you might get lucky or go to ebay I saw several advertised for $800 bucks

if my name was on the door at 900,000 miles it would get a full in frame, your way to close to every thing to come back at a different time and redo 80% of the work to do pistons liners and main and rods. labor and down time cost more than parts!

farmer on the subdivision try the caddy shack approach, the bbq tank can do double duty ! may I suggest doing this on the 4th of july holiday , the local cops will be busy barking dog complaints they wont have time for "its raining dirt in our culdesac"

1983 superliner steering issue.
gearhead204 replied to Bwilson0924's topic in Driveline and Suspension
ok will need more info: did it do this all at once? are the wheel stops hitting the axle beam in both directions, does one side hit the stop and will the steering wheel want to turn further? does the timing mark on the sector shaft line up with the mark on the pitman arm? oh does this truck have dual steering gear? -
Some Superliner Pics.
gearhead204 replied to jackb61sx's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
ok its the inside of a superliner its my 89 rw 713, its the only R cab I've seen with this many gauges, must have been the full option package does anyone know for sure?
-
Brake system components on a R model cab - please help!
gearhead204 replied to Pawel's topic in Air Systems and Brakes
Pawel: I think a air line schematic of a superliner would be easer to use for accurate placement of the lines. Then use our photos to get realistic routing and placement of the lines. Hopefully a member has a schematic for a R model they will post. -
yup multimillion dollar shipping system still fowled by a loose lug nut (DAM'N MURPHY)
