Joey Mack

Yes Hayseed,, i tried to delete my attachments.. You tried to guide me through it.. I was not able to delete the pictures without deleting the posting that they were in.. I forgot how I learned about making a donation, but , after I did donate, I was given a lot more storage for pictures.. Jut sayin'.. Of course, it is quite possible that I made mistakes when I tried to clean out pictures.. jojo

blue or green.. I prefer green.. No on the red spot for greasing....

😅👍

Amen !! I am sorry for you loss,

For what it's worth. I fully agree with FJH.. the snap together ones fail exactly as stated..

Oh My.. This is very sad news.. I always read his posts, and thought,,, this guy is amazing.. I am truly sorry, JoeyMack

are there spider web cracks at the mount bolts? I forget if there is a piece of flat stock inside the door where the mount bolts come through.

It seems to be the case, MarkT.. I have a machine shop here. one of only 2 within an hour from me.. I had some connecting rods re-bushed for a John Deere 3179 I was building.. I brought them home, and when I was ready to install them, I found the bushings werent fitted to the new wrist pin that I put in the box with them. If I had known that was how it would have been done, I would of just pressed them myself.. I did fit them myself. I even had to ream out the oil hole in the bushing because they were only half way open. I know you will build a sweet running engine.. Jojo

PERFECT !!!!!!!!!!!

Check fuse 40 in the engine fuse box..

Hopefully, the cable gives you good service for a long time..

It kicked my A$$ all of March 2021.. I almost went to the hospital as well.. I still have trouble breathing some days and my ears are permanently clogged due to the many ear infections during COVID and the long COVID.. I I posted a topic on this back then.. not gonna lie.... I was a little scared,

Swishy always brings the funny stuff!!

Awesome!!!!

Mech..???? Come on now.. 🤣

I see what you are saying.. Crazy how they can take over and destroy the trucking world..

You would be correct sir... JoBama is in the House..

Hmmm,, I seem to remember Volvo/White /GMC.. ( WIA + WG) model trucks, back when I was a newbie.. I guess Volvo, has been trying to own all of the truck makers.. am I supposed to question my love for Chevy trucks?? I have a few of them..

I just realized I may have posted the hand throttle part number... Sorry MACKS...

Sorry Bud... however,,, it is really good that you found this issue.. i say Good Job..

Im not really sure why a Mack 200 or 300 series synchro would go out early? a lot of the time, the o-rings for the range shifters are not replaced/lubed every few years.. Sometimes I think that drivers flip to 'lo' at too high of a road speed and over speed the rear tranny gears.. I have seen worn clutching teeth, which I relate too slow range shifters due to bad or dry orings.. anyway, I dont know if you have ever been inside a 200 or 300 series Mack tranny.. The synchro is large compared to Eaton or meritor.. I describe it as a 2 sides motorcycle clutch.. I believe there are 14 friction plates and 12 pressure plates, plus a thick thrust washer.. It really isnt hard to repair, but having a book for the first few times is very important.. too many steps, too just 'wing-it'... 🍻

The book is 23 years old.. I got it after finishing Tranny school for Mack.. I have 4 sets of tranny and rear end books

I knew I had the Mack in-chassis synchro book.. Here are the special tools to do the job. the ''Z'' brackets can be home made, the holding plate costs more for a machine shop to make than it is to buy one.. Good luck,, Jojo

ok..
