There was an issue with the coolant tank pin holes on these also try changing the lid on the tank!

Yup If, Barry don't got it ,you don't need it!

Unfortunately they chose the cheap way out again with this dollar store fuel system ! They likly would have solved their injector cup issues had they used a proper HPCR system Owell it sort of works! Its 50% better than I expected!

Really its about who you know and not what you know! We had a woman service manager (Title ) for quite a few years ! She was assume! extremely good at dealing with the Mack trolls , customers and staff And if she didn't know something she would come get one of us that did! Nothing wrong with that from my perspective! Of coarse she was also doing warranty and everything else that was chucked at her so she was busy . Between the 5 or 6 of us our shop basically ran its self we knew what had to get done we just do it! That said the whole ball game changed after she was moved into a different position things started falling to bits! They hired service manager after service manager everyone worse than the next! Kind of like the politics above! The last service guy caused me great stress as he was a micro manager ! As of last july I opted to go down to part time to distance my self from the asshole and I stayed until they were able to hire someone to replace my ass and now am happily retired they since replaced that guy with an recruit another guy I would not have been able to work under so All is good! Politics are EVERYWHERE! Fortunately now I only have the government BS politics To deal with!

OH YAAAA! However if I bought one I’d max out the extended warranty and plan on trading in not long after the warranty goes out . That passenger side of the engine is pretty busy.

Bro I don't even know what model of truck you guys are working on here? Just remember ! some times the buzzer is in or behind the main dash panel! Sorry real late in this how ever! on the CV the buzzer is sometimes built right in into the dash! Just sayin

Gunite and meritor drums and shoes have really gone up in price here Pays to shop around!

All work and no play makes joe a dull boy!😜

They MAYBE thats the point, we would buy pads and just do them in place on the axle! sometimes quite pricey!

Yup these are likly Mack brakes and Volvo would rather you buy a new Truck! Might want to look into a second mortgage or maybe you have a first born child you want to trade! 😡

Joe How do you advertise now seems to be working? Build it they will come! the thing I worry about is getting stuck with parts bills ! labor only parts supplied by customer cash up front! unless your confident in there ability to pay!

AMBAC is a screw! I Wouldn't give it more than one turn ! Just sayin!

just to add here check engine or lightening bolt light on ?

Yup In my opinion THE best cabover built by anyone! That said I hate CABOVERS to work on! Mainly having to jack up the cab and having the jack hoses fail! and hitting my head on the cab steps !😡

Sometimes the rad tank cap can cause issues! the top rad tank had issues at one point Depends on the year of the truck! Most common instance of this is caused by egr cooler failure less common is injector cup failure sometimes accompanied by hard starting! sometimes the rad cap can cause issues More comments will likely follow!

Yup ALL these New trucks Mack Or Any other make are designed to keep you coming back in one way or the other! and after 5 years they are a crap shoot to own!

I am not against it Its your own business How ever It makes for a bigger problem down the road when it comes to repair because what and who can you can on to repair it If something goes sideways!

yup First thing to look for if your running Mack rears! my belief is if you got to run miss match tires ( Don't recommend it how ever ) Run em kitty corner that spreads Some of the wear thru out the diffs and power divider! Just an opinion

as stated Tire size plays a huge part!

to confirm this theory if there is a power dIvider lock use it! If the noise goes away you nailed the problem!

I have zero experience swapping these that said! I do know how Mack made lots of subtle changes to things over the years it was a continus process althou physically this engine has evolved with the same look since even the gas block It even looked similar Lots of changes some big some small! so what is being said here by the boys you need to follow their lead

There"s a roving guy in this area the spray welds trailer king pins and you can't even tell after its done even thou you are not allowed to weld on hitches ! So That said if you don't know about it when your looking at it then your likley not going to worry about it! If that axle stub was on a pilot hub wheel and the seal was dri you would have been none the wiser! you would have slammed the brakes on there and a new drum and all done just like normal ! Now that said if that vehicle comes back in a week from now with a wheel seal leak there is a problem! Just sayin!

Yup guess he can't really hand his gun to anyone ! Here hold my gun while I inspect your truck! 🤣 Our guys here can go under your truck but have NO CLUE what they are looking at! gun or no gun Absolutely useless! Wouldn't be so bad if they would offer up and identify safety concerns but they just focus on stupid shit crack in a lens or dirt on a license or plate lights !

Good call buddy I hate those dam things they can warp and take the seal out as well! we used to be able to get a double lip seal they were awsome But if you used one you need to delete that dust shield dodad or it Would take the seal out !!

Just a few thoughts ! Exhaust leak at turbo flange gasket or exhaust gaskets ! Boost leaks Check the charge air hoses including to compressor!
