    Yup I always followed the parts guys to the parts that way I new I was getting the right part! Nothing pissed me off more than getting the wrong part ! Our boss bless his heart believed any monkey could hand out parts! NOT SO! A good parts Guy is Gold if you can find them ! Just like any trade!

    They can't work with out a computer! and vin and even then ................. It doesn't help that the Volvo parts system takes a PHD to run it! the Mack parts system Made most parts guys look like wizards ! The letters in the part number gave you a guide to the parts location! Now is just a number! The system sucks! A parts guy now needs to have a good back ground in puters and numbers! Just ask the Heinz hes had a good mix of hands on!

    If the thru shaft broke on an angle it would still drive some what! They do USUALLY break clean how ever there is that off chance! shit happens! Just saying! Leave no stone un turned ! Take both side covers off and look quick and easy!

    If this don’t work out pull the big side cover and check for peices! I am suspicious of a broken thru shaft!
  10. fjh
    are your tires even?

    I would replace the fork too just saying! It is likely worn! Do the disks look worn?

    Mack was always Morphing things ! In the direction of where they were heading ! Look no further than the change over of e6 2valve to 4 valve they changed the front cover on the 4 valve to the very similar e7 mounting shortly before the e7 was introduced! I could point out dozens of instances of this as time went on It was kind of neat to watch thinking back on it!

    Up to a Point ! The doors went to metal At one point how ever I did not pay attention as to the year! The earlier Ch doors were identical to the MH right down to the hinge mounting! Terry as for the vent window not sure!
  15. fjh
    Im not sure of the answer to this But its my theory that they had a whole bunch of doors to use up when they quit building MH cab over and this is why they designed the CH to accept the MH door in the begging I and I don't remember what year the door became metal! ! As for the cab it was extended by 4 inches behind the door at one point so I cant be time specific on that!
  16. fjh
    yup and its out of an RS by the look of it!

    Thanks all worth trying ! I broke the spaner I bought for the job one of the dowel pins broke! So the e big pipe wrench is all I got for now!
  18. fjh
    Pinion is the same the housing is likely different ! because of the sliding clutch So he needs the outter cam and the housing and the actuator housing to complete this and hopfully he has enough slip on the drive shaft to compensate for length! or he will need to shorten!

    Don’t assume you have 6 p20 liners! You need to pull them all ! In my opinion!
  20. fjh
    Yup !

    Might make a sleeve for the pipe wrench! With a hook on it and maybe be use the machine to power the wrench chain off to a stump and put pressure on it with the hydraulics and air hammer as suggested! The out riggers will have change tactics if it works! Will see! If I can break it free and get some oil flowing around it things may get moving! IF it works!
  22. fjh
    Nope plan on inframe got me a 4 foot pipe wrench! Just don’t got the strength! Want atack the scoop cyl first . Then the out rigger’s! Got the kits off amazon!
