79 r model trailer air valve
Joey Mack replied to hicrop10's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
are there any numbers cast into it? I have a Sealco book. I can try to get a part number.. It looks like and older version of what we call a QR-1 valve... (quick release) -
no, phillips i beleive. its been a while... maybe a torx screw.. It's easy... this would be a good time to blow the dust out of it too.. Jojo

Mack granite oil blowing from turbo down tube.
Joey Mack replied to trucking251's topic in Engine and Transmission
take the overboard breather out and see if its plugged with sludge.. have you replaced the oval gasket where the oil return tube bolts to the turbo? What shape is the oil feed hose to the top of the turbo? Nice picture, I have been to the top of Mt. Washington twice.. not hiking,, driving the auto road.. Once on a motorcycle.. Awesome !! -
yes, remove the cluster and take the back off, (circuit board).. there are skinny bulbs, like a 1/4 sized #194.. I forgot the bulb number.. sorry..

Truth is... This country needs guys like you to teach the dumbasses how to do everything.. Of course they cant get dirty, gotta keep their looks right... anyway,, i'm actually doing good at work, the boss's see that I can do more work and do it right, and not have to babysit me, while the kids take all day to hang 3 light fixtures from the ceiling, where there were already fixtures, just needed to switch out the old with new LED lights.. it took 2 days to do it.. Meanwhile, i'm re-building oil pumps, gear boxes and roots blowers... Oh well....

Todays Kid's SUCK !!! worse than when I was a 'Sucky kid' These Kid's are DUMB.. One of my co-workers is 21.. He was asked to 'lay out' some measurements for a bracket.. one of the tasks was to add 9/16'' and 1/2''... Instead of just saying 1 1/16'' off the top of his head...... He instantly/naturally grabbed his cell phone,,, put it to his mouth,,, and said,,,, ''Seary'' What is 9/16'' + 1/2''... I,, friggin snapped and said, Put that Fu*^*ing phone down !!!!! and do the damn math... Oh My Sufferin' Christ !!

What year is it?? 14 grand??? hell no!! 1,400...... yes..

880 joe has a good point, especially if you do not want to dig in to the newer engine, and just want to run it.. i hope you dig into the bad engine and try to build a 'long block' to put on the shelf for later.. Jojo

If the cam part number is the same, ( the number is stamped into the front hub of the cam, you can pull the timing cover to see it) you should be able to pull the cam, put an offset cam key ( white side out) then put your turbo and injectors in the new engine.. This should allow you to keep the 460XT ECM... I am not sure about the pistons. Jojo

Looking for 1979 Mack engine head
Joey Mack replied to RS Disposal's topic in Engine and Transmission
we do use 'Taps and Dies' as well. I have a thread chasing kit. They are less aggressive than taps and dies. good for cleaning existing threads.. Gooday to ya' Paul.. Jojo -
When our family had the house in Gray Maine, we raised Chickens turkey's and Pigs.. We always had fresh meat and eggs.. Yes we had a large garden too.. I miss those days..

Thread Chasers here Paul.. all good, and get's the job done.. -
Hippy,, I read the ''Dipstick'' one out loud to my wife , and instantly she said..... ''That's Fu%#in Stupid'' Just add oil..''

I believe so, but web searches are B.S.. Not as ''Country'' here as it was when I lived in Maine..

So my wife came home from the grocery store today, in a bad mood... Chicken Thighs: $1.79/lb....... Pork Chops: $6.49/lb...... Never mind Beef prices.. What I'm asking is......... How do we find meat farmers who sell fresh meat and maybe ship it, and at an affordable price.? I have looked locally on the Web, but it seems like the info is hidden, and you have to connect with a sales site rather than the farmer/butcher.. Jojo

Connecticut Construction Trucks
Joey Mack replied to BKrois's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Where in Portland was this truck? Assuming you meant Maine... Jojo -
Yep, I lived in Rangley Maine, 30 years ago.. I worked at the transfer station. We had a ''Bargain Barn'' You picked what you liked and weighed it on a scale, then recorded what it is and you name and address, (optional).. Some days folks would just come to the bargain barn just to poke around.. I liked it..

https://www.paiindustries.com/.. I got an E-mail today from these guys.. Hopefully this link will be of some use for someone here.. I think you can sign up for a monthly parts catalogue..

There is a hole in the frame on the left, between the drives. It is about 1 1/2" diameter. In the hole you will see a slot for a large screwdriver. To adjust the height, you loosen the smaller bolt near the hole and then rotate the slot with a screwdriver.. this will move the control valve, which will raise or lower the frame. Have you adjusted air ride on any other trucks before?

Parts Book 79 R model
Joey Mack replied to hicrop10's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I would grab as many books as i could from the trash, but missed a lot of them.. I recently pulled 3 perfect CAT engine books from the trash. I think they are 3306 books, for stationary generators.. I'm thinking about listing them for sale, so someone can use them.. -
Parts Book 79 R model
Joey Mack replied to hicrop10's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Thats a tall order.. usually there are several books.. Not knowing exactly what you want, maybe, ''Crash Books'' would be what you want.. You may have to look for specific books like , engine, transmission, cab,, etc: -
