I oiled the pedal valve. The plunger moves free. Only does it with a trailer on. Doesn't matter what trailer either.

I started using my MH. Brakes don't always release when I take my foot off the pedal. Doesn't happen all the just most of the time. I replaced the Tractor Protection valve. What next? The treddle valve?

Wow. I thought my moving up a model would mean easier parts availability. It's a pain in the you know what when you cant find the parts you need. Glad my MH didn't sell now that im using it

The retainer clip goes over the top part of air bag to hold it in place. Slip says replaces part # 97AX286. $1.15

Ya know. with all that chrome & paint you would think they would have at least put bullet cab lights on it

Update on airbag. Part # 25498332. They are smaller than the bags I took out. But they do hold the cab up so I guess all is well. Make sure you get part # 25094742 that's the retainer clip. Mack neglected to tell me that on my first bag. $63.78 for the airbag

Hmm, ok. Thanks for the reply. The bag looks like it should be for a seat not the cab. Thanks again

I bought an air bag for my MH cab recently. It is a great deal smaller than the original. Part # 25498332. Is this correct?

Heck they even tolerate us cabover folks. Well most of the time.

LOL. Guess you don't have a 13'6" height restriction either. Don't you just love auction moves?! I once got a call from a Ford tractor dealer down in Ma that we hauled for. They sent me up to Presque Isle, Me with just a serial number. When we got there it was a riding lawnmower! Lot of room left over on my 48' drop. Oh well, its all by the mile.

Just a thought, but try taking the governor line off the compressor make sure air is flowing at that point. Then you can search farther. A little heat would be helpful.

Maybe get some Scotch too. Just in case. A little "antifreeze" for you wouldn't be a bad idea. Good luck

That is AWESOME! Thank you for that article

Wow. That is indeed important info. Thanks Kscrabel. A great wealth of info to be found at this site.

Thanks Josh, I do appreciate that info.

I'm not in a hurry. Truck is pretty much parked for the winter. You are right, the base is curved for the contour of the cab. Using the Ultraliner now. Thank you.

Vibratesoftware? Sounds like it could be X rated.

42 mt? I thought they were bigger than that. Locaol E9 expert told me it was a 52 mt? What is the 12 volt equivlent?

Red will fade easy in Fl sun. But I do like the red frame with black cab idea. Maybe do the roof in silver to help with the thermal heat?

Were you referring to the Astro's as fishbowls?

No other make truck that ive found so far has the same style directional. K-D Lamp Co. is what it says. Looks like the directional on a Superliner EXCEPT the 2 mounting studs are opposite the side light, not a quarter turn off like a Superliner. .

You wont belive this, but just this morning a gentleman called me who is cleaning out his dads garage. He went to Global truck to ask who would want some cabover parts. They sent him to us. He has 2 radiators with the shutters out of 60's vintage F models, and 3 Windshields. if this is anything you may be interested in drop me an email. i'll put you in touch with him. I was going to buy the stuff just for an occasion. Check out my old F model on the website. caboverkings.com

Its factory with the E9 and a 6 spd. I ment the 6 spd isn't very driver friendly. The low isn't as much as a concern as the top end. Man at the Mack Museum told me that only 95 Cruiseliners with E9's were built. Im still waiting on the paperwork. Im second owner. It was ordered with a 6 spd. Only the original owner knows why. If I ever figure out my scanner id copy the line ticket here. Typical New England truck. Budds front spokes rear short W.B. Level 4 interior, dual exhaust air ride. That is not typical

Wow. That is interesting. Ok, now im really going to test you folks. With the 13 spd that has a 12.31 low would idle around a barnyard ok? That's the only time I like the 6 spd. Other than when someone challenges me at a red light. The 6 spd is good there too

1. Ok. Thanks. Im getting 6.1 now with the 6spd at a .62 overdrive and 5.73 rears. I don't consider that to terrible for a COE. I just want more gear choices! On a 45 to 50 mph 2 lane road it really stinks. Its either tached out or lugging @ 1100 rpm. Got to see what the Mack Museum paper work says. Gentleman on the phone told me Mack only made 95 Cruiseliners with theE9. I bet im still going to change it. Just to make it more driver friendly truck
