hmmmmmmmmmm is no good at all none of the back up beepers that everyone had are no good any more out here as everybody got used to the noise so now they bought out a squeaker so the sound is different problem is given time the same thing will happen again I dont know the answer but it aint beepers fluro vest long sleeves hard hats or work boots to a certain degree a lot of this stuff has made the problem worse according OH&S experts out here now as we no longer thing for our selves ???? Thoughts go to all involved we all wanna go home at the end of the day Paul

I did not know this very interesting to know on any pivots that are likely to seize I always cover in grease that way I figure moisture cant get in thru the grease dunno if it really works that well either but it cant hurt Paul

There is a oil seal in the input shaft or at least there should be Used to be able to get a 2 piece clutch brake so it could be changed with pulling the trans dunno if you still can Paul

This photo isnt a Mack its a Leyland Super Hippo and almost all of these were exported from the UK with out a cab and had locally built cabs in Australia they were used on road trains and heavy haulage out here Paul
-
these are some great photos of older Mack trucks hot rodded and still working Oh yeah and welcome to the dog house here is some videos from you tube I came across a while ago I dunno if others have already seen these so forgive me if you have Paul
-
ok thats what you call them I call them orange flashing lights strobe lights were in discos or night clubs LOL Paul
-
strobe lights ???????? yeah its a bit of coin but the old Superliners are still worth a packet out here as they say they just dont make them like that anymore but were else are you gunna buy a truck rated to 200 ton or 440,000 pounds as the US ton is only 2000 pound for that type of coin the E9 was a hard motor to beat in its day and still is today and the Maxitorque trans well pretty much the whole trucks are to beat back when new and still hold there own now 30 years later and I could see me loosing a finger real quick in that steering wheel Paul
-
this is all interesting to me The untis I was working didnt have a solenoid there was a switch that would open the circuit to the starter motor when the flap was lifted to plug the lead Paul
-
Ok all you jokers that are over at least 40 years of age as it wont have enough power for the younger crew they will 600hp plus LOL heres a tuff old truck with a Mack Sleeper not a real long distance runner as it has no long range tanks but will go all day between drinks I reckon dunno about the steering wheel though https://truckdealersaustralia.com.au/item/used-1984-mack-super-liner-fvX/

I remember some years ago doing electrical work at a Ambulance station and all Ambulances had a plug on the side to plug them into mains power when not being used I guess because they had so much electrical stuff in them and were never really turned off as in the radios were always going and lights and stuff on inside them They also had a cutout so when it was plugged into mains you couldnt start them I wonder does a fire truck have they same type of thing ???? Paul
