Freightrain Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 When I needed a lash cap for my 237 (also nla) I got on Facebook Mack pages and asked. In a few short hours I had an offer. Couple days later it showed up. FB can be a useful tool. 1 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

That would be much appreciated! I guess this scenario is becoming more common as these engines age. Crazy why they would discontinue them though. If you find any let me know Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57438-dynatard-hydraulic-exhaust-valve-lash-adjusters-discontinued-my-mack-and-pai-now-what/#findComment-424033 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut out your own pickle fork that slides into the Jake clearance. If you can’t imagine what it looks like go to the Mack dealership with a chunk of cardboard and cut a dummy fork to duplicate or sketch it. I don't think I know which guide your referring to ... sorry Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57438-dynatard-hydraulic-exhaust-valve-lash-adjusters-discontinued-my-mack-and-pai-now-what/#findComment-424035 Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I went to buy one a few years ago it was piece work.

JoeH Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I think I know the bolts you need, we bought a few from Mack a few years ago for our Jacobs brake on one of our ebdt676 motors. I think we got the last 3 available, rofl! They were $80 each!!! Ripoff. We bought em and took a few out of our spare motor, too.
