Macks are my thing, but i have a few IHC's. 1917 K, 1924 modell 33 and 63, about 1927/8 model 93, 1965 loadmaster (i believe) with a detroit v6 and allison automatic (former us govt truck). Also remnants of a transtar cabover (cummings and tranny-runs). I sold several KB8 and 9's a couple years ago. -

vibration and rattling is there as long as it's engaged, when it is not engaged everything is fine,,empty truck or loaded is the same. -
Sorry for the late reply. I just saw this. Phil Baumgarten had very high quality reproductions of cab plates, radiatot badges and other items made which he sold to collectors and hobbiest such as myself who owned and restored older Macks. These were 1920's, 30's, 40's and 50's. B model hood and radiator tags were about the newest items he had made. He was very active in the old truck hobby, and quite active in the ATHS. He had moved to Florida, and died about 20 years ago. Very nice fellow and always ready to help anyone. All of the remaining stock was sold to someone who I do not remember. The radiator tag you have was used on the AB Macks from about 1924 on. It may have been used on some other models as well. Phil told me he had them made in Tiawan by a very good company , and he was very careful to be sure the quality was excellent. Not long before he died, he told me the demand for the older items was drying up, and it was getting harder to put together the minimum size orders necessary to have them reproduced. They show up for sale from time to time on ebay, where they sell very quickly. Steelman

I have a 04 Granite, AI300, allison 4500 with 4.64 gears, 17 yard dump. Working in the plants they will load her to 60-65k with 610 limestone, and other than the “AI lag” that we may have cured this weekend, the 300 handles it fine, even up the ramps. When tagging my excavator im at 82k, and the 300 could use a little more muscle, but gets it done. We changed turbo and injectors this weekend, we will see next week how she does. -

I ordered a used jake brake setup to replace my current (parts missing since I purchased the truck) brake from Manders. Was buttoning everything up from manifold/exhaust/injectors change to cripple egr, and noticed that one of the internal oil lines in the jake was broken, looks like from shipping (broke at the check valve). We put a plug in the oil port and started it, but were scared to run it long like this not knowing if something was starving for oil, or does it only work the jake. I figure with MLK day tomorrow chances of getting one is low. Does anyone know for certain if it would or wouldn’t hurt anything to run it like this? I really want to see how it does! (225)266-6350 Thanks
