    The 3412 is a beast of an engine for that Bulldog! Shame it's in pieces, I'd love some videos of that beast running. It's like the American equivalent to the last Pacific truck ever made, a P12W3 with a 3412 Cat, built in the parts warehouse. Some interesting videos of the truck being tested after completion on Youtube.

    Never heard the nickname before, but here's a picture:

    I helped put a quote together for ONE charger install, and it was mind boggling how expensive it was. Add on the fact that the EV truck has an incredibly short range, and it ends up making no sense to have one. I remember attending a class where one of the Paccar developers working on the EV program told everyone that none of the EV designs would have a great range, it's just not feasible yet.

    The only cabovers Mack offers are the LR and Terrapro (TE). The LR is exclusively meant for refuse work, with dual steering wheels and a low enough cab that stepping into the truck is easy and safer. The TE is predominately used in trash trucks around here, but it's designed to be tougher to accommodate vocational use like concrete pumping. They also make the electric LR, but we all know how that's been going.

    Sometimes I need a bit of correction, especially when my mind is outrunning itself. Happens a lot with how the front counter is...

    I misread that part of the post, I just had a customer ask about the door tags and my mind was stuck on that! Yes, for the frame tags he can just get the decals separately, we usually have most of them in stock.

    Your best bet would be to contact your local Mack dealer, there's a form they have to fill out with information from you and submit with an eSignature. In the past it was a PDF that had to be notarized.

    Not 100%, but the brake demand sensors near the brake pedal are usual suspects for issues like this. I've seen them cause loss of power complaints lately, so I would look into that/have a SMART shop look into it.

    The part number for your hood is 23397375, and it looks like you need to replace the springs as part of a supersession; springs are 82392414 QTY 2. I don't have one in stock, nor does anyone in NC as far as I can tell. They ARE available from Mack however.

    Noted! I guess that valve does make a difference. Joey, fjh, and the others will have better answers for the lack of boost, but I know the CAC hot pipe (passenger's side) has a bad tendency to leak there, requires replacing the two blue boots and all four clamps. Could also be something in the EGR system causing a boost leak too,

    It's really common around here for newer cement mixers and heavy dump trucks to have a second steering gear on the passenger side, but the setup is very different from this.
  12. The Heinz
    If I'm not mistaken, the overflow valve screws into the head as the return-to-FF Housing side. This is me guessing as I haven't worked much on this particular setup, but could the overflow valve stick open and allow the fuel to drain back earlier than needed (Someone smart please help me out!)
  13. The Heinz
    I don't think there's a way to do that, and I don't think it would be a good idea given how the DOT stresses all drivers wear them while the truck is in motion.

    It certainly helps! #4 should be the return to the pump, Impact describes it as "FUEL FILTER BRKT-FUEL PUMP," while #8 should be the feed line from pump to filter, described as "FUEL PUMP-MAIN FILTER." Both of those banjo bolts use the same washer, Mack #20852765. The overflow valve according to your VIN is #21458307 should you need it. Sorry for the late reply, I'm now a Front Counter Salesman, so I am much, much busier than before. I've already had the privilege to order and quote parts for several older Macks, including an 80's DM.

    I didn't have a VIN for a 2010 CXU with an MP7, but this is from a Granite of the same year with an MP7. Number 10 down there is an overflow valve on the return side, I don't remember if that can cause your issue or not. We never reuse these seals, but we are a dealership, so take that as you will.

    I looked into some aftermarket air cleaners for you, but in order for it to not be $1000, you might need to check some scrap yards or parts trucks out! Even PAI is proud of their air cleaner. Were the screens added in the ASET engines?
  17. The Heinz
    You can try going here and contacting Parker dealers nearby, I don't know anyone who would specialize in this stuff sadly.
  18. The Heinz
    I can only assume Teledyne sold off or closed their hydraulic branch sometime after your truck was made, because they had absolutely nothing about hydraulic systems on their website. I contacted Parker to see if they have anything, it's worth a shot.
  19. The Heinz
    It likely won't have a filter, but it might have a screen in the water manifold hoses, I don't have a picture at the moment. I don't think those need to be changed all too often though.
  20. The Heinz
    What engine is in it? I haven't seen an MP engine without a coolant filter, E7's and back are a different story. We run almost exclusively red coolant in anything regardless of age here.
  21. The Heinz
    I've never had to pull one of these out, so I don't know for sure. I'm fairly certain the wiper mechanism is under the cowl in the engine bay, so at least you wouldn't have to touch the interior dash assembly or anything.
  22. The Heinz
    As for the transmission, it was built with a Fuller RT613. Forward drive diff is a CRDPC921, rear is a CRD931, both in 5.13 ratio.
  23. The Heinz
    I'm getting good at figuring these old Mack VIN's out. According to Impact, it shows to have an ENDT475 SCANIA in it.
  24. The Heinz
    Seeing a late model RD with beautiful paint just floors me. Every R model with the sloped hood I see around here looks like they've been put through the ringer. Excellent shot!
  25. The Heinz
    They weren't kidding, this fan is utterly available through Mack. I checked the usual aftermarket like PAI and Automann, nothing. BUT, we have access to Lippert who keeps old, obsolete parts, and they show to have several of these. It's worth a shot to ask your local dealers if they have access to this source and order it through them, because I've been told I can't sell to out of state customers without an account due to fraud attempts in the past.
