Finally some DM progress
Joey Mack replied to mowerman's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Yes Sir... I had to put my '48 to the side for a bit. I had repairs to the house and a couple of our trucks, and a bunch of small chores.. I pick at chores during the week, but on Saturday I get a bunch done, and Sunday is a half day.. and today.. a guy who's engine ive had for 3 years, is ready for me to come get a bunch of parts, so I can get back to it.. It's hard to work on my own stuff for long periods of time... Oh well.... -
yes terry it does,,, right away.....
-
well a couple popular models were the 2070 and a 2060.. is the shift pattern label behind the sun visor? if not you can clean the area behind the big fill plug. the model is stamped into the main housing along with the part number.. they had air shift for low range (Un-synchronized) there will be a blue button on the front of the knob.. pictures always help us to help you.. Jojo

rubber boot still there intact or have the usual rip allowing crud oxidation.

terry??? you ever break one of the 'dogs' off the pressure plate when trying to adjust a clutch that has been hammered to death, and your trying to get every bit out of it, but it's stuck, jammed up with clutch dust in the teeth on the adjuster ring??? I have.. That sucks...
-
no sh!t... thats a new one for me.. I never tried that.. I have a crank handle that bolts in where the locking tab bolt goes.. I have even used a large screwdriver and pointy bar to make adjustments.. so do you turn the flywheel 360, then check free play? and keep doing it till its set?
-
How about removing the service line on the bad chamber and pressing the brake pedal to see if a strong rush if air comes out..
-
'R' cabs have the treadal valve in the floor, right where crap from your boots can get in there and jam things up.. it's odd how only 1 brake is not working.. is the clevis pin rusted solid? Did you have it off the slack adjuster, or did you just screw the camber on to the clevis while it was still attached..? Very strange....
-
I would if I still ran my service truck.. I have a cushy city job now... I am currently waiting an hour and a half for the garage to come jump start our crane, because I am not allowed to put jumper cables on it.. I'm going nuts, I used to hustle and get trucks back in the road in short time..
-
How about a knot in the hose created during the repair??
-
1997?? i bet the new cab is older, and V-Mac II... your wrecked one may be V-Mac III.. does the engine have 6 small fuel pumps instead of an in-line pump?
-
air the lines switched? the chambers are not isolated on the service side. one valve should be sending service air to the service side of all of the brake chambers..
-
This Idea is one that I have had for a while.. When JB's, Klan, talk, like they care about border security and the negative things that enter our country,,, One way to find ''Illegals'' is to come to Charlotte N.C. when there is a Soccer game at bank of ''America'' Stadium, and check I..D's ?? I bet if ''ICE'' or ''INS'' had vans parked around the stadium before the gates opened,,, there would be only about 1000 people (Americans) entering a 60,000 seat arena.. Any and all thoughts are welcomed..
-
diss regard the kit number I posted.. It is NOT for power leash... power leash valve adjust is a different procedure than Jacobs.... are you familiar with that process?
-
Looks airy to me.. I bet inside the tanks looks like beer suds...
-
The reset screw part number is 215SB321..
-
Yep,,,,,
-
Hell Yeah!!!!
-
Look at Eaton 9 spring ''Easy Pedal'' clutch for Mack E-7... Problem solved,, the whole clutch kit is in one box. just have to buy a pilot bearing and a clutch brake.. if you have to replace the cross shaft bushings and shaft and fork, they are available, and keep up with us and we will guide you along.
-
I'm sorry about my poor spelling.. the yokes get set to .010" while you are adjusting the valves or when the rocker shafts are off.. if the yokes are not even, it puts a side load on the bridge/yoke pin, and can break the pin.. I cant tell you how many of those I had removed with a welder and a slide hammer...
-
Ok.. good find..
-
Yokes are set to.010"
-
Improper adjust ment of the valve yoke reset pin can cause this as well
-
that is great news... so to be clear... did you get the engine and trans too?? I hope so... jojo
