tjc transport

yup. watch the tack. look at where it tops out, and where it goes into gear. but as said, if you pull it out of 4th at 1800, it should slip into 5th at around 1400 to 1450. same with downshifting run it down to 1200, rev it up to 1600 or 1650 and slip it into next lower gear. don't try to force it. just hold it close and it will suck rite itno gear when you find the sweet spot.

the eaton fuller "8LL" is actually a 9 speed with deep reduction gear splitter. but they call first gear low. so that leaves low, and 8 gears plus a deep reduction splitter. . hence the 8LL designation.

what he said^^^ to go from high to low, just flip the switch. once taken out of 5th, you can just slip it into 4th. it will not shift between high and low unless the trans is in neutral.

from the internet: The Pressed Steel Car Company was a builder of railroad cars and equipment based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, that was founded in 1899, and had facilities in Pittsburgh and Chicago. It operated until 1956.[1]

yup, pretty much says it all.

he joined October 12, 2010 and last logged on October 1, 2017 birthday listed is November 20 2000, so that would make him 21 years old. 8he ,495

that is the 94? and newer hood.

because big brother said you need to get it. so you have to get it because big brother said you need to get it. baaaaaa......🐏🐏🐏🐏

first thing i thought of when i saw that pic was a continental overhead valve 6.

They were in damn near everything back then

no shortages here in Jersey.....yet. but they had no problems raising the prices 25 cents per gallon over the past week.

wow, that was a HARD hit! first thing i would do is try pulling it with a modified version of a portable frame machine. long beam under the truck fastened to the frame. a pivot point on the end of that beam, with a long vertical beam. hydraulic cylinder. between the two. clamp the back metal to the vertical beam and apply pressure to the cylinder. that body looks like it is aluminum. it should pull fairly straight with gently hammer and dolly work. the rear compartment material with lights may need replacing though.

mack was never a moderator. and was banned with the rest of the trouble makers last year when we would not follow the rules. he then started two new accounts and tried causing trouble with them too, before both of those accounts were banned.

he is still listed as an active moderator.

i see she has her "personal floatation devices" on too. 😁

that's cause school kids cant vote.

nope. i have not listened to one word that senile idiot has said in over 5 years.

Oh my goodness!!! Are those eyes blue? 😍

oh yea. closed mack vent window was a finger breaker for sure. after the first two three times, i just left that damn window open. my friend got hit head on in a 83 R model.. the vent window latch cut his left hand almost completely in half down the middle between fingers.

i drove Macks for 45 years. plenty of room in the "R", "U", and "DM" models. the ride of the Mack was not an issue for me as i did mostly offroad heavy construction so speed was under 25 mph. but i was also a lot younger and was still i good physical shape.. as i am now 65 and my body is falling apart, i appreciate the air ride cab, 565 HP engine, and automatic trans comforts of the T880. i still do heavy construction, but now mostly run asphalt and stone so truck use has changed to on road use with speeds in the 45-50 MPH range.

because if you kiss it you get a stay out of prison card.

i feel completely different spectrum. i was ready to retire because of being in a T800 for 2 years. rode like a tank on square wheels. cab was so small i could reach across from the driver seat and open the passenger door. i was stuffed into the steering wheel with the seat against the back wall. this tore up my knees and hips. the 2020 T880 has more room in the cab than my 2014 F350 pickup. and rides better than the pickup too. i have the nav plus sound system with reverse camera. pretty much every option except for steering wheel controls. we ordered it with them, but they forgot to put them in. we also got the cummins X15 engine instead of the pos paccar engine.

I also toss them when ripped as we always have 5-6 new ones on the shelf in the shop. The Mexicans will tie one together if they rip it though to strap something down to get home

very good video Rob. i always knew tying a knot was bad, but did not expect the break strength to still be equal to strap rating. what really impressed me is the three times rating break strength.
