Freightrain Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Easy way to fix it............black magic marker the "Lo-Lo hole" of compound out. Then you'll have a shift plate for a Triplex LOL!!!Same plate I have in my truck and it's a Triplex also. Don't think anyone is repopping them? If you were handy with photoshop and had a scanner you could make one. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

dockmen027 Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I saw a vendor at Gerharts/Lititz Show with a whole table full of different Mack plates, they may have even been new, but sorry I don't know who it was.

If ya do that, then make a few more for some Tri-Plex users. mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/16372-shift-data-plate-swap/#findComment-66274 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I had this made at a friend's trophy shop. Cost about ten bucks and looks a lot better in person than it does in the pic,due to a cheap camera.

Packer Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I've got 3 18 speeds and would swap in a heart beat!!Packer Quote Keep a clutchin' Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/16372-shift-data-plate-swap/#findComment-66501 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhasler Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 hmmmmmmmmm........I could do the art, output a separation, or even better, output a screen, and maybe a trophy shop could produce it!I have a co-worker who makes his own PCB boards. He told me about this product: http://www.pulsarprofx.com/pcbfx/main_site/pages/going_farther/index.htmlHe says it works pretty well and their customer service is easy to deal with (apparently the head of the company is also the customer service representative!). Theoretically this would also work for making guage faces, dataplates and the like. Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!"
