I just wanted to say to all of you weirdos, freaks, grease monkeys, etc. No matter what you are, we are all friends and I will miss seeing everyone this weekend. 

Most fitting way to describe the masses😁👍

Hard to say what there worth without seeing what they are. I'm assuming you have Mack truck models as opposed to mac models

Seriously thinking about this. There are parts for B models all over the place, but almost nothing for an R. R model cab was used up until mid 2000's so there is and will be demand for awhile. I was hoping PAI would fill the void, and they do in some instances, but more is needed. R model interior parts are near nonexistent, emblems, western style parts, grilles, sheet metal for cab repair, etc...

I cannot find a vendor for these parts.

I know what you mean where I need a few sheet-metal parts for my DM I am hoping they’re still available otherwise I’ll have to make something up....Fortunately I really don’t need a whole lot frustrating especially around here..... bob

What are you looking for I have some interior and sheet metal parts 

Welcome aboard. Love to see pics of trucks in your part of the world

If your putting more fuel to it your problem may me overfueling as compared to radiator problems. Is your pyrometer running hot? Sounds like you've already checked cooling system

I've watched some of those old tractors. There not fast but they sure do pull

Easier to value with more information. Is it roadworthy? What condition overall is it in ? Maybe a few more pics

I have the air ride crossmember the cab sits on and some other pieces for air ride cab if your interested

Still gonna need more information. Does it turn over? Does it try to fire at all. There's a sensor on the flywheel. I'm guessing that's your problem

I realize there's more to it than this but a bad or plugged oil filter will definitely lower your oil pressure. When I started driving I worked at a place where maintenance was not so good. I remember my oil pressure dropping one day I got back and reported it. They spun a new set of filters on and it was back to normal again. And yes all they did was filters no oil change

Where you located?

Sounds right to me. 

Packers from Stoney Creek Ontario. My daughter just started working in shop there. She's working towards apprenticeship. Apparently they run them with tridem trailers to west coast

Pm sent

I'm not sure if I have a complete set I'll have to look but I know there new in boxes  I'd sell. Pm if your interested. Alex

Set of 38 Mack rears on nuway air ride 3.65 ratio on 24.5 spokes Came out of 90 CH. $1300 u.s. 

Looks good

Local Napa store sent a pump out for me once to get rebuilt. A local parts store near you may have your answer. I'm not sure if b model water pumps are same as early R model 2 valves but I have some nos of them. If you get to the point where you remove your water pump post a pic I might have one. Have you checked to see if pulley has play in it. That's what happened to mine.

Nice I've never saw a gold bulldog ashtray I have a chrome one myself. 

Welcome aboard. We like pics. Mack museum is best bet but apparently closed at this time. A good Mack dealer can run vin for you

She's a beauty too bad can't get to a show to show it off

You can pull air tube off turbo and look at it and try to spin it. Obviously if it has issues spinning by hand there's a issue. Don't worry though you shouldn't have a problem sourcing a used one I have one on shop floor off a 300.
