Yes 20 to 40 or so I use to do these myself not at 60 , father had a shop . Something is shifting its not the trunnion bushings because I did look the springs are moving in the cheap 234 dollar saddles that where put on.in February and again last week , I was thinking the sides of the springs are wore and saddles don't fit tight,or center bolt is broke. Mack saddles where over 900 a piece. The way they changed saddles didn't take springs off cut u bolts and jacked it up. Maybe they missed something wore on the inside of spring

Yes I herd the noise and saw the back wheels jump out. I guess if I was that mech guy I would have stopped in the middle of the intersection raised the body with a load on and stuck my head in-between body and frame. Everything has bin changed except springs.

-
Not sure they really won't let you in shop to look
-
Yes I made him put new again, thinking they where wore. When he he tightened u bolts.
-
Guy said it's an 8000 dollar tool he uses
-
It was making noise empty, after multiplier only loaded ,
-
That picture is after he used the multiplier is why I. Thinking springs are wore
-
Yeah that's what he used sorry torque multiplier
-
Well I'm going to the shop Monday when he pulls it apart I will make him look, he put a jack under them while truck was in the air and they didn't move. Is why I'm thinking springs, or they are missing a crack

Here is the long story , truck was 4 years old so I decided in the winter to replace the insulators spring guy told me saddles wore so he changed them.did nt show me old ones ,give or take 4 months work I started hearing a cracking noise when I turned. Spring guy was busy so I took it to another spring place he said saddles wornand changed them again,made it worse.went back to the first guy he said u bolts lose he multimeter tightened them.helped empty noise still there loaded. I had enough and bought these from mack and I'm gonna tell him to change springs. At my wits end
-
Spring guy said saddles wore out he put cheap aftermarket ones on and they are worse then before. I had enough and went to mack and got oem. They don't the ears at the end , what would be the difference. Blurry picture is the week old saddle moving. Even after being tightened by a multimeter gun
-
Quality work with brand new aftermarket shit tightened with multimeter and still move with load. It's like pissing in the wind. 1200 and change to change both saddles and this is what I get. 20 years ago I would have done them myself. New ones ordered from mack

Spring guy says he could put one if bracket bolts to the rear, guess I'm gonna call dealer monday and ask
-
I talked to a few friends have same trucks different years and they have it , seems in 2019 models they didn't put one
-
It doesn't have the bracket nor pre drilled holes
-
My 2019 granite triaxle dumptruck didn't come with transverse torque rod, saddles wore out spring guy says i should have one.its a heavy thick single frame.should I have one installed?
-
I had the back eand redone , insulators , new spring carriers bushings. This past winter by a spring place , problem now seems like something ripped on the insulator makes a rubber kinda crunch when I turn and wheels move about an inch. What's the best insulator to put polyurethane top and bottom. I don't know what they put. Thanks for any advice
-
Yeah soot lvl went to zero when it finished, just seemed odd to me in the middle of a parked regen it would ask for a parked regen
-
2019 truck was doing a parked regen , while doing the regen pop up message starting blinking parked regen required. Seems odd to me never did that before. It finished tho took 46 minutes. Maybe just a stupid question
-
Ok got into it today turns out it was starting to crack 500 bucks later for piece of plastic and it's fixed ,thanks for the info
