    Up would be on and that knob at the very top should turn to adjust the tension going to the Parker shoes,probably needs a good going through at this point..
  4. MACKS
    That would be your parking brake lever,should be a drum type brake up against the transmission..

    Sweet..

    The hard part on an RD is the cab sits close to the rails..

    Anybody notice the news hasn’t been reporting on the Russia and Ukraine war the past few days,I mean not even a peep?🤔🤷‍♂️

    That’s the way I would go,then remove fifth wheel and plate should be plenty of room to sand blast and paint,chances are the trunnion caps and bolts will need replace anyway..
  12. MACKS
    Well good luck and I hope u take a lot of pictures. along the way..
  13. MACKS
    Ok my bad, u want to remove the A frame also,man I wouldn’t attempt that..lol
  14. MACKS
    Yup torque rods to but what 10.5 locking nut,I’m talking about the. Trunnion caps under the truck not the ones on the ends of the bar, probably a better word for the ones I’m talking about..
  15. MACKS
    The only thing holding the bogies on is the two trunnion caps underneath the trunnion bar right,once removed jack up the rails disconnect drive shaft,and air lines and roll em out..

    It really is sickening..😡

    Like I said take it easy on the pedal I don’t really mean hold back just drive normal and u will be fine ,some guys love to roll coal so they just put it to floor ..lol
  19. MACKS
    Just my two cents but u really don’t need this on your engine,back in the day every one disconnected them or put an air switch in the cab to shut them off,just take it easy on the fuel pedal and u won’t roll any black coal,once u have boost then u can put the fuel to it…

    I had an 1983 RD with a 300+, it had the tip turbine and air box,engine looked similar to this one but I’m certain that line was not on it..
  21. MACKS
    This thread makes no sense to me is he talking about the tip turbine or the main engine turbo?
  22. MACKS
    The puff limiter keeps the fuel restricted untill the engine gets boost,stops all that black smoke from to much fuel and not enough air..
  23. MACKS
    I might be wrong but I don’t think your gonna see to much boost on a tip turbine,it basically just blows air thru the air box unrestricted unless it’s plugged up with dust,maybe that’s what your looking for,when to clean it out..
  24. MACKS
    Ok my bad,I must of miss read,thought it was way over..carry on…
  25. MACKS
    Are you gonna drain some out,not good to be overfilled?
