  1. It could be bound up with paint maybe ?
  2. I'm thinking high beam, low beam and parking light in the lower light and the upper is high beam only Paul
  3. I'm thinking a squirt of normal engine oil would help a lot as the seal is probably dry as chips Paul
  4. I have noticed in Australia when RoadRangers/Eaton are installed in Macks aftermarket, a rear transmission mount is also used, these range from a propper engine mount rubbber deal to a section of leaf spring out of a car or pickup as you blokes call them These might be only 2 or three leaves, I wonder are they really needed or not ? Paul
  5. These were modified for Australia like this, I think the head lights were to high on the U.S. cabs and this was the answer So All Kiwi and Australian Cruiseliners have 4 head lights like this Paul
  6. Well I have no good answers as to we're that starts or finishes I have would expect that is a pressure regulator valve and from memory,the only ones I recall seeing are on the transmission for the range change I wonder if it is a built in safety feature that won't allow the brakes to release unless you have enough air for the transmission?? But I have no idea at all Paul
  7. A photo fresh to hand that my son took the other day Not Mack but, still a good action shot Paul
  8. Well I have comr with a plan As a kid my grandfather told me that when he was painting the house and the paint was looking like it wasn't going to be quite enough, he was going to "paint quicker to beat the paint running out" So I guess I need to drink quicker to beat the bourbon running out Paul
  9. As everyone else has already said, Merry Christmas everyone and Dean, thanks for taking us along for the ride Paul
  10. Hot off the Google Facelessbook machine Elliots of Tasmania R800 Paul
  11. Hay is now made for the year and now the carting in the hay beggins My boy and his lady friend are down for Christmas and they wanted to cart the hay in, so fired up the Mack and put a flat top trailer on, gave Tess, my sons lady friend some driving instructions for the front end loader and set them free Paul
  12. Hope everyone had a wonderful time Christmas is over in Australia, it's 5.30 am boxing day and I'm knackered (left and right) Back into making hay for today Had Christmas with my mum and brother and hia family, my boy and his lovely lady Tess were down from north Queensland and a good day was had by all Stay safe and have a great 2026 Paul
  13. Without doing some research I would suggest that Volvo is one of the bigger sellers in Australia But it really depends on what part of Australia, if you live in QLD Mack in rural linehaul type operations would out sell Volvo, get into the more southern areas of Australia and the fleets are more Volvo than Mack There is no Volvo conventional cab trucks anymore that I have seen for decades in Australia, anything with a bonnet (hood) is a Mack Still a long wait for Mack and Kenworth trucks in Australia as far as I know, six months or more, maybe up to 8 months I'm sure someone will have the figures of Australian truck sales Paul
  14. You should Google the motor and truck and search for reviews etc Quite an amazing powerhouse Paul
