New transmission, like a new truck

I got my truck back this morning from the local Mack house. Had them install ReMack t2180b, clutch, and rear seal. Quiet in every gear now, and range shift works, and no leaks.

Found out last month that the ol girl was originally a mutt. Built new with Eaton 18 with Mack 4.17s. Someone swapped that setup for a Mack 18, and 4.42s. Anyway, the transmission had a few issues like bearings squalling, oil leaking from every possible point, and as of about 10 days ago, range synchro going away. Went in and priced out parts and labor for these repairs, and to go with the ReMack and 2 year warranty was just not very much higher. Good Deal, I like an easy choice.

The truck is back to growing on me again. :SMOKIE-RT:

If the 2180B is a slow reverse, I couldn't fatham the non B. Glad to have a lo lo reverse again..
