    just PRE-SELECT otherwise you'll burn up the scyros in the back box I'll guarantee that.

    We are experiencing the same problem with a chassis in our shop. The customer has bought 6 and all are doing the same thing. Only one tractor is here in Tulsa. We havent found the problem and neither has the Mack factory. Ill post if we solve the problem. I drove the tractor for about 5 miles and brought it back. Scared me and I dont easily get scared.

    I was walking one night going back to my deck of Mack Trucks in a dark parking lot and a Roadway driver started his Mack with an air starter and I jump as high a damn cat. Scared the sh--t out of me. Ill never forget that moment.

    The setting was on rt. 64 just outside of Pawnee heading west back to Tulsa. Drove about 200 hundred miles.

    Give the man a chance. At least two to three years. Then we can look back and see if he has done anything great. Its going to take all the organization not just one person to get market share back.

    You have to PRE-SELECT. If not, over a period of time the synchros will burn up. No need to run synthetic oil in a Mack transmission. Driver error.

    You can get the insulators, washers, bolts and nuts in a kit. 204SX216 is the part number

    If left running for hours, set the rpms up to around 1000 to 1200 to burn fuel completely.

    If the person that did the work and did it properly, the bogies should only walk out about half an inch then fall back in line when the truck is straightened out. Most people use an inch impact on the u bolts but it won't torque to 1700. One has to use a torque multiplier.
  18. rick harper
    Make sure u bolts are torqued to 1700lb. ft. before you do anything else.

    Never went any further with the engine. As I write the only thing that locked up was the econovance. But I'm not 100% sure if any other components were damaged.

    385/65R22.5 and 425/65R22.5 will us a 22.5 x 12.25 or use a 13" for greater carrying capacity. 10.00x20 is the same as a 11.00R22.5 except the 1100 series is tubeless.
  21. rick harper
    Engine is intact and sitting in the rails. Econovance is apart.

    1996 Mack RD688S-E7-400, Mack T2130/18, FAW12, 12000lb. Front Axle, SS440, 44000Lb. Camelback Springs, Steel Budd Wheels, Wet Kit, Sliding Fifth Wheel. Bad engine. The story on the engine goes as I know it. This trucks engine was supposively rebuilt but they couldnt get the timing right. Brought to us. We timed it and started engine. We let engine run and sounded good, then all of a sudden engine locked up. Found someone had put a bolt in the oil galley hole for the econovance. Located in Tulsa, Okla. I have a clear title. $8,500.00
