Frank Y Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Picked this up with a few other B Mack parts. The number on it ( 101-60548-1 ) isnt a Mack number and a google search didnt come up with anything. The elongated holes match those in the crossmember but that's not surprising with their shape. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/64162-anybody-recognize-this-bracket/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coenut Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Almost looks like a hydraulic brake line bracket. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/64162-anybody-recognize-this-bracket/#findComment-460451 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Y Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 I should've put something in the picture for scale. The flat with the slots is about 12" long and the small protrusion is about 2.5" wide. I was going to bend the small protrusion in line with the other step and mount the trailer valve to it if it's not a bracket that is highly desirable. Heck, I'm not sure if it's even a Mack part.

HarryS Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 It looks like the bracket that goes at the center back of the cab where the trailer air hoses and vavle attach.

Frank Y Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 That's what I'm going to make it into but I wouldn't know how to attach the valve as theres no other bolt holes. My trailer valve only has the 2 mounting holes.

Frank Y Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 I agree it looks very much like the trailer valve bracket in the pic but with that wonky keyhole and no other holes to mount the valve its gotta be something else.

HarryS Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Here's a couple of pictures if I can figure out how to attach them. Looks like the "keyhole" was cut for something other than the trailer valve.

Popular Post JBushneck Posted December 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2020 It's not a Mack part or an aftermarket trailer part. It is actually a bracket for a return idler on a conveyer.

Frank Y Posted December 31, 2020 Author Share Posted December 31, 2020 Son of a gun! Mystery solved! Thanks JBushneck. I wasn't convinced that it was a Mack part, and now I really dont feel bad about making it into something else. I used a different bracket to attach the trailer valve but will now be modifying this bracket as it will work and look better. Thanks again JBushneck!

JBushneck Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Glad to help solve the mystrey. The box of parts you purchased must have came from a mine or quarry.
