thats pretty neat.....I still have a rubbermaid tub FULL of lego in the basement. Just waiting for the kids to be old enough

F*** YEA.......I love old iron!!!

<SNIP> Stole this and put it on my fazebook.

Same

too bad im all outa likes. should have gone, passed a number of those rigs friday....looks like a good time

I was almost ready to just rip the f****r of the cab, flip the elbow on the "exhaust cube" behind the pass step and make it into a weed burner.....

Tried all kinds of crap, just collected more crud and made noise again....never thought of amor all.

it was more of a vibration from the stack wearing through the bushing at an angle from the arc of the cab moving....

I had the one on the granite (2011) i used to drive replaced, not due to rattles, but squeeks as the cab moved. Lasted about two years. My buddy is driving it now, and just had it done again, Mack did the first one "free", but i think they payed for this one

Spotted today around Baltimore...

No comment lol

Cool "truck", stupid exhaust. I bet that 1.6L IDI motor has a hard time filling the stack, let alone rolling coal. Unless its been swapped for an ALH or BEW 1.9l TDI

That's what I had been telling the boss man. 1/2 the money for twice the truck. Nothing wrong with a new one, but NOTHING beats a sharp older one

Could also be ANY electrical fault....get the blink codes and post them. Someone will be able to help you

Governor controls cut out and cut in pressure for the air compressor. Did you check for any leaks? If the compressor is running constantly to keep up it will get hot.

Agreed. How long while driving does it take for the compressor to cycle off/on/off?

check the cabin filter (inside the "kick panel" on the passenger side i think) if not running on recirc.

Depends how and where the load is placed....

Specs??? And PICS....we need pics or it's not real lol

My wife and I took Izzie (oldest daughter) to see Thomas in St. Thomas a few years back. She loved it. Now it's one of Maddie's (youngest daughter) favourite shows....hopefully he comes east again so Maddie can see him "in person". I'll have to show them the pic posted if they're up when I get home tomorrow.

Now that would take some getting used to.

LOTS of that Generation Mack still runnin the roads here.

I have seen a few of those around the Tri-Cities...

Happy Birthday brother.

Fuel gage? Did Mack ever make a fuel gage that worked anyway?

The pig farmer I worked for had a 02 Granite with a perfectly functioning fuel gauge. Showed the amount of air in the tank. Ask me how I found that out. Luckily I was at the top of the hill when it "went to sleep", pumps where at the bottom

any noise from the pump during the "events"

I'm not allowed to....she says so...but mid-life crisis time approaches

What I was gonna say has been said....but I'll echo

Could have been much worse. Heres to a speedy recovery.

.....riding right on your tail, then flying by just to slow down and turn 300' later.....f****in meatheads....

id go 385....generally good weight ratings, should be cheaper, and not as much loss in wheel cut compared to 425......kinda best of both worlds i guess....

un educated opinion
