    Yeah that was an Aussie built version, the mob that brings in the Reo's also do the Kalmar yard jockeys

    Dunno about Diamond T, but there was a company that brought back Diamond Reo, at least over here in Aus. Based on a CNHTC Sinotruck. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://powertorque.com.au/return-of-the-reo/&ved=2ahUKEwi81cjQrfWLAxU2zzgGHTcmBDwQFnoECDcQAQ&sqi=2&usg=AOvVaw2l6JhX7rYFnwmMhuflQDDC

    Yeah I reckon that's what fjh was referring to. I'm thinking he probably has the updated design though.

    Shuttle valve only allows activation of range cylinder when stick goes to neutral. The splitter gets an air feed straight from the reg, and a signal feed from the shifter. Splitter will shift as long as there is no load on gearing. Breakdown of splitter cylinder

    Most roadrangers run a filter regulator, sort of like your shop air compressor filter reg. Mack usually run an additional spin on chassis mounted air filter.

    He could leave the EGR crap on there, it wouldn't be functioning if he could use the AI engine loom and ECM. Providing they use the same sensors and EUPs I couldn't see it being an issue. Cam timing may come into play? Don't the AI have the restrictive exhaust manifold, and the extra bump on the exhaust cam? To facilitate the IEGR.

    So the "new" motor is definitely an AC? Have never seen one, we weren't blessed with them over here in Aus. Anyway, regardless of what it is, someone has put considerable effort into making that engine look "new". Couldn't replace a hose, but painted all the bolt heads, fan mount faces and a few nuts silver🤦🏻‍♂️ Without pulling it down, it's nothing more than an expensive boat anchor. Sorta like putting lipstick on a pig. Just sayin.

    https://costeffective.com.au/product/rmi-25-cooling-system-treatment/ I use this and a few of their other products. Works really well, you'd be surprised the amount of filth it'll pull out of a rusty cooling system.

    There'll be slight differences in some of them, inlet outlet position and connection,manifold mount angle, etc. Some are just supersessions of previous numbers and some will reman numbers. These guys are in PA, might be worth a call. https://momentumworx.com/mack/?srsltid=AfmBOopssZviGnxvGTkEhr2LIJZFpAGTZp41VDAq7NheTnzhhL1opr-z

    Good work mate, all good things take time. Hopefully you got to enjoy the down time.. So now the big question, is the new motor an ASET AC? And if so, can it be sold to find an AI?
  12. Adkat
    Should have an 18spd Eaton in it. Funny how all the fluid filters get changed, but that little air filter gets forgotten about. Had a 15yr old truck come through that still had the paint on it from factory 🤦🏻‍♂️. Sounds like it's lost pressure and kicked itself out of high split? Shuttle valve would play havoc with the range shift not the splitter, I think? Joey, you'd be all over these trucks, Etech CCRS roadranger, mostly meritor drives on hendrickson air. Only real headaches are the cab and electronics, being Renault. And that they're now 20 odd years old.

    Good find there Bob. Bugger you weren't a few days earlier. At least you got onto some good tires out of it. Adam
  14. Adkat
    Yeah most have the spin on filter in the supply line to the gearbox, unless it has been deleted. Should look something like this Unless you have an air dryer mounted back there. Some pics will soon tell.
  15. Adkat
    Has it got a spin on air filter up in the rail somewhere behind the gearbox? The air line that runs into the filter/reg at the top rh rear of the box should come from the spin on if it has one. You can also pull the bottom off the filter reg and give it a clean out.

    Looks like it's for a 350. Hope this helps

    Good on ya mate, seen another lap around the sun! Have a cracking time🍻🍻
  18. Adkat
    Hard to tell, but that looks like an SR-1 spring brake valve
  19. Adkat
    @The Heinz can you check this out when you get a couple minutes. Let's try and figure out what's supposed to be in there, then we can work out what can be done with what you have.
  20. Adkat
    C'mon Larry, it's cruel to tease us with the first 2 and hold off on part 3! But in all fairness, you've done a cracking job with the first 2, and the triplex as well. Adam

    Is it some sort of cruise control throttle actuator?

    Seems to be a common issue on here Bob
  23. Adkat
    I'd be talking to a dealer, maybe @The Heinz could run the vin and work out what motor the truck came with. Dunno but wouldn't have thought an Etech would be in an 2006 model over there. Either way it should fit, just need to find the bolt on bits and pieces, should be plenty around at wrecking yards to piece it together

    Well that explains why so many damn democrat voters look so haggard.

    Hey Bob, dunno if they make them over in the USA, but these offsets look good on the steer
