Air compressor question e7
Mark T replied to mcratchet1's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
That setup requires more than a hose and a couple clamps. Weren't they made of Aeroquip with JIC fittings ? That looks like a piece of silicone heater hose on it. That can't put up with 30+ pounds of manifold pressure. -

IDK that new HX (?🤔 or whatever it is) is a pretty good looking truck. Not only as new trucks go either. Saw a couple day cabs pulling East dump trailers, they looked great. -
And Captain Sig and The Hillstrands thought they had it tough in The Bering Sea.

Superliner RW700 Steering axle
Mark T replied to 1961H67's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
The littler one (in the front) is to engage the PTO. The larger one to the back is the air control for the hoist. Both, the center stays and you sorta lift the flanged (?) part with your index and middle fingers. I wonder if the "button" you're asking about in the corner is the light that looks to be missing it's lense ? Usually that'll have a red lense on it and light up if the PTO is engaged. -
I think you are correct. Unless it's rachel's

That's a guy that could use a hug from big mike

I'm gonna hafta Google it. and while I'm at it, I'm gonna Google "boobage" 🤔

Thought it was Somerville or somewhere around there.

Guys use'm over and over and they get mashed into the axle. Then you have to resort to pliers, Visegrips or a small chisel to try and get them off. Pita

I've had them put up a fight over the wedges, and they can be a challenge. So much so I never use them twice anymore. New ones with a little Neversieze and a new gasket. Nothing like coming in at the end of a day, finding a leaky wheel seal....then spending an extra half hour or so getting the axle out. New hardware is cheap. I guess maybe those ag tires might be sorta soft and bounce around easy

He was offered a roll and gave his two week notice. Story is the boss was happy for him and "fired" him right then and there. Not in the angry way, wanted to see him make it. I think he might have lived out by TJC at the time.

Seriously. That looks like something in the 20 to 23 thousand pound range of axle. What the heck could be so stuck in it ? It actually sounds about right when it hits the ground too.

To quote Larry The Cable Guy.....that's some funny $hit right there
