    I have used that spanner many times . Did you see the 12" rod and fish scale, or the string method setup to pull the bull gear to check bearing preload? 2-5 pounds for reused bearings, and 3-6 pounds for new bearings?

    Bob, is the spindle damaged where that wear ring go's? like grooves or pitting for example? if not, you dont need the wear ring. just buy a National, or CR seal. Its not like you will be putting the truck to work.

    I'm pretty sure 385,425, steers are just that, steers. When I used to do P.D.I.'s on front load garbage trucks, they would order them with 315's all the way around and pull the 8 Drives off to be be used as spare steer tires, and put caps on the drives. My 2 cents...

    Is there not a wire diagram in the book I sent you ? I thought you had a 2 valve..
  13. Joey Mack
    Thanks, I know you told me before, but forgot.
  14. Joey Mack

    is there a flapper in the turbo pipe? or a little ways back in the exh. pipe.
  16. Joey Mack
    this is a common complaint. some have replaced the injectors and the exhaust manifold with a manifold from and E-7 or E-Tech. then theres the programming in the ECU

    check fuse 40 in the box on the firewall next to the steering column. we will also need more details, like, is it losing prime, can you prime it up to get it started, any sensors been replaced lately, and so on..

    Working in a dealership had stronger requirements. I adhered to the rules. Hard knocks learning was happening anyway, but I took the schools seriously. I was limited to Mack, but did work on other brands. Take it for what it is.

    So, why I am posting the way I am is because I was trained by Mack, and have built a few dozen Mack rears. Of course, I have not seen all issues, but fixed many. I am also a good study and own the books that I was schooled with, 3 sets, to be honest. My library is large. With respect, Jojo

    You can come off the fuse panel with a 15 amp fuse, attached to a 30 amp relay, and connect to the heads. You can even go fancy with a head light switch so you can select one or both engine brake heads...

    you could put a fuse switch on the shifter for easy access. There would be a lot of switching on and off, but it would work.

    I wouldnt say 'Bad'..

    given the procedures to set tooth pattern and preload, there would not be enough of the housing left because you need to reach in with tools and strike the bull gear with a dead blow hammer to make adjustments. The thin metal wall of the bowl would likely warp during the cutting process and then not be stable enough for the assembly procedure. Its not a bad idea, I just dont see it holding up. and a 200 series carrier has to be taken apart during the preload and tooth pattern procedures between the spur gear and bull gear, and the bevel gear and bevel pinion, because of the spur shaft housing. A 92/93 series can be done as a complete assembly.
  24. Joey Mack
    The housings are the same

    its 2 bearing caps that have 2 ears on each, so 4 points of contact on the bearings.
