Painting the tractor
Coenut replied to hicrop10's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Have the paint store print you the tech sheets for the products your using. Wait until your ready to paint and buy everything according to your conditions. Heat and humidity. If you go beyond the recoat windows then you will have to scuff, tack, and degrease again. -

It's not a Mack and I'm kinda embarrassed to say i own it. So it's the wife's problem.

Everything fell into place and won't need a temporary lot. Thank you very much though.

Truck parts in Scranton pa. -
I purchased another truck. Odd scenario but I'm looking for a spot in the muncy pa area for a few days. Anything is helpful.

I will make some spacers. That will also help the rubber elbow clear the hood a bit more. Thank you

I just reinstalled the aircleaner on the truck. It touches the cowl on the bottom. Has anyone had the issue before. Also seats are in.
-
I might have one. Not sure if it's for an r. Pin has a slight bend in it. It's new in water logged box.

Thank you . That's what I was thinking. Never hurts to ask.

in my r model there are 2 wires going to each speaker green and black on pass side and green and white on the driver. Which wires are positive the black wires or the green and white? I used a test light but nothing lit up. Speakers have + and - terminals.

Thank you very much

I can't seem to find a replacement for this airbag. It holds air but I'd rather replace it while the seat is disassembled. It's from a bostrom Viking seat in an r model. Is there a go to company or site that can cross reference this?

11r 24" Tires
Coenut replied to brickhouse15's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I have 11r24.5 triangle tire on my r model. They are nice but the sidewalls are really stiff. -
No matter what I use buy from Eastwood shipping was always around 12.00. I'm 1.5 hours away. I stopped buying from them because the local paint supply has better options.

R Model in Morgantown Pa

Looks like an old scartelli construction truck. -
R model cl lamps not working.
Coenut replied to Coenut's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
Got it all figured out. A friend printed me out the wiring diagram on a massive printer. Turns out the previous owners had the wires run differently and they also had the wrong style switch in place. All back together everything working. -
Cab is painted
Coenut replied to h67st's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Very nice. Love the color. -
What lights does the cl lamp switch activate? What lights does the light switch activate? I have all brand new lights on the roof all grounded. I have the 3 center lights working. With the light switch. The outer lights and the dome light do not work. I have power at booth poles of the cl switch when in on position. No power at the outer lights. If my memory is correct the cl switch turns the outer lights on. Also the thank you toggle switch on top left of dash. Above oil gauge does not trigger anything off. Also all the gauge light sockets with 2 wires are not working,but the gauge lights with a single wire work. Harness is in great shape not hacked up.

Stripped the wood grain off panels. Self etch primed and recovered with 3m ni doc vinyl. Stripped and repainted all the guage bezels. Added a Hewitt boost and pyro combo. Complete update to hvac shroud as well. Local fast signs nailed the decals.

Looks great. I always have plenty of fluffy bath towels or fleece on hand and drape it over anything that I may bump parts on. Latex gloves. You will never go wrong with painters tape on the edges. Make sure to take some tack out of it by taping your shirt 2-3 times then put on panels. Especially with fresh paint. Good luck nice job.
