slingblade Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 may as well take the hi / low servo apart and clean it up and lube it before the install,lots easier now,than once its installed and no or slow up shift to hi, 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50225-13-speed-fuller/page/2/#findComment-372920 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Freightrain Posted June 21, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2017 Newbie? If all I wanted to learn was how to hold a steering wheel.......then I'm sure you could tell me the proper way. Beyond that.........I doubt you could assist in much. I have very long time, good friend who has the same attitude as you. Holier-then-thou, always standing on a pedestal touting "I'm the perfect person with all the right answers". Sadly we all know better, but we know it is a moot point trying to explain it to him. 6 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

Popular Post GreenGiant2 Posted June 21, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2017 So I have a 76 brockway tractor that I use to move my equipment. Am I stupid cause it's old and should I go find a new truck and spend 150k and have payment. No I don't think so. For 5000 miles or less a year it isn't worth it. My truck puts money in my pocket and is paid for. I don't have a 2000 dollar payment each month. 4 Quote We the unwilling, Lead by the unqualified, are doing the impossible, for the ungrateful.

TeamsterGrrrl Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 And IIRC, isn't this Eaton trans a 913 or 9513? nowhere near enough torque capacity for a low RPM 300 Maxidyne!
