  1. it should be a 5/16th hex head set screw having a 1/2 in six point nut for lock.
  2. for those interested; just looked up mack rear power divider, number of videos also vendors selling the parts(not to take away from Watt's) but to show pictures and proper names of the parts.
  3. if the small floor board section is what was being replaced, the treadle valve wouldn't need to be disconnected. just take out the three screws holding pedal to floor section.
  4. 4 main parts to the mack auto lock. 1-cage / attaches to input shaft:2 = wedges(dogs) having two sets =3 = drive coupler /slides input shaft ==4- cone /attaches to output shaft. wedges are between drive coupler and cage. flat steel band on outside of cage keeps wedges from falling out. as input spins faster. the wedges are pushed out going against the cone connecting power to output . it's a brief version with wrong titles to parts; sorry.
  5. fuel tank vent clogged creating vacuum / flex line in suction side has internal split line restricting flow? one tank or two?
  6. sadly it's difficult to find ANY product today that hasn't slipped in quality. loading bales of shaving at the farm . even that has gone bad. bales go from 20lbs apiece to 30plus. opened a heavy weight yesterday it was saw dust , not shavings. where's quality control. people have expensive animals /pay high prices for shavings; don't want saw dust. even if it's delivered by a Hino = (saved the topic LOL)
  7. bought brand new in '93 a Hino FA to replace my '77 F=350 flatbed. after checking American made trucks(ford/chevy etc) which needed 40 acres to turn around ; looked into the foreign cab overs=Hino/UD/Isuzu. Hino cost tad more built much better . had the 4 cyl with exhaust brake, room in cab . installed electric PTO instead of very expensive mechanical one. could turn that truck around in a small circle. would have replaced it with the new style Hino if day came .
  8. 80 .000 !!! didn't know =non planetary how ???
  9. feel bad for those such as mowerman (such a positive person )traveled so far .my knees are so bad now I couldn't stay long enough at the Bethlehem CT show to see the entire round up last week. sorry people . gave strong thoughts to going to PA (get away from !_you know LOL) . another cardio DR appointment this Friday. old age sucks
  10. could also be an aeroquipt clothe/ internal braid inside rubber lining having replaceable ends. leaking from movement -- dry rotted ?
  11. 1-flex is there; will be easier to replace with same, 2- the flex braided (? doubt ) or rubber flex ; basically a hyd line (#8)? remember treadle having a rubber (hyd) line ; don't recall which position. 3- won't be seen or change originality.
  12. another auctionzip discovery. just passing on info :: auctioneer Dennis W Ahern . Bequette vintage autos 6/15/25 .New Douglas Ill. lots 418=442 interesting.
  13. amazing pictures ;; THANK YOU, great to know there are people still preserving history.
  14. back when men were men ;compare a single axle spring ride U to a B or H model with same specs , times change .
