rd600 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Does anyone know where I can find a complete set of used jakes for and e6 270?. The engine is tagged 1989 with the ser. #9b 0298. I thinks its 4 valve but not sure how to tell. My research tells me I need a 680A jacob brake but not sure about that either. Thanks for any help.

rd600 Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 Thanks for all the info. I have a 4 valve... does anyone know of a used jake for it? This is the first Mack I have owned and work in the mountains a lot so a jake is a must.

Dirtymilkman Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 I picked a complete pacbrake off of eBay for $600. That was housings, switches, wiring and everything. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33888-jake-brake-e6/#findComment-221488 Share on other sites More sharing options...
