terry Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Real simple to do, surprised they still have kits for it.👍 terry Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55520-12-speed-selector-rebuild/#findComment-415124 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Don't know about clearance for a newer truck but the TRDL-107, and TRDL-1070 in my trucks were easy to get at as the cabs are raised from the frames quite a bit. The 10, and 12 speeds are very similar to rebuild but you have one more cylinder to contend with. I'd rebuild the selector at the same time as it's a maintenance item and will probably start leaking once it gets full air pressure against it too. The PAI kits are just as good as OEM at considerable less cost..... Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Take that ridiculous thing back and pay whatever restock they charge. PAI Industries sells that same branded kit for $55.34, available, in-stock @ Georgia's PDC. The PAI conversion part number is FKT-1148.

kscarbel2 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 14RC1131 is indeed the part number for the rebuild kit, but did you mean to say $226.....or $26? It used to sell under $30.

Mack Technician Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 All it takes is a parts guy with coffee twitch to double tap a digit on a manual price install. PAI prides themselves on blowing 30% (or+) off Mack's prices. It would be the first time I've seen Mack beat PAI.

Dirtymilkman Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 That's also from having a piss poor parts manager. They should never be charging list price for parts. Brake drums list for $270 or more and Mack sells them here for 90 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55520-12-speed-selector-rebuild/#findComment-415154 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got a price from Watt's, 211.81 plus shipping,makes no sense to me how there could be a 175 dollar difference in a small part like that and I assume there exactly the same quality..

Rob Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I rely pretty heavily upon PAI for a lot of things but my local representative is a big help too calling me when he knows someone with an older Mack has something for sale. I've never had a problem with quality issues from their parts either. Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Case in Point...…Since the internet gives everyone and information advantage you would assume it would force the market to comply, nope. Amazon did drop $50, I think it was like $250 and northern tool was around $70 at one point. 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55520-12-speed-selector-rebuild/#findComment-415211 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, just think how much time sitting for regen, sensor failures and other mandated EPA friendly additions the lower the dependability. I'll stick with my old stuff. Here is an example. Sandy and Irene did massive damage at Port of Egypt and Orient Point Ferry. I was eliminated from the jetty repairs because i had "old equipment that is probably not reliable" . Two weeks after the contractor started and spent 8 plus days with down new equipment, I was asked to take his contract, which I did at a 30% increase in cost to them. Newer is not alway better when it puts food on the table. My humble opinion.
