Rear passenger axle locking when braking
Mark T replied to MACK321's topic in Air Systems and Brakes
His picture of the afflicted wheel end has a wire for a wheel speed sensor in it . ( how about that fancy wording ?? ) -

Thanks for posting the cure. Not everyone does that. Glad you're fixed. -
Limiter......eliminator ..... aneroid puff limiter.... greta's still annoying
-
Mech......wasn't it a (puff limiter) ? not eliminator ?

Just go buy some everyday thing you need . You'll be in perfect alignment with what's in your head.

I'd like to have a little heart to heart with Greta. Let her know how much I've spent on DEF and after treatment and how many tens of thousands of dollars such great world saving ideas (like the Mack AMI) Figure it'd warm her up for when she goes to china to straighten out leg hump'n xi.

I'm with Paul on this one . Even if he is speaking out of fear of a visit from gretzilla (it's understandable, she's angry)
-
(lol) yes, she made that speech and had that infamous dramatic moment asking "how dare you" then got back on her sail boat and went home. Bullhead coulda meant justin.....or who knows
-
I'm confused . Which "little lunatic" ? you're going to need to be more specific .
-
Poor Greta......how dare you

Don't forget, when you jack it up like that (blue or green) if you go high enough you'll be losing the effect of the parking brakes. If you have one out of adjustment or a failed maxi on the side not jacked up, it's not impossible for the truck to try and roll. Use a little caution .

Wait until you have this engine running. You're going to be surprised at how smooth and quiet the engine is ( not the exhaust ) . -

My guy here is pretty good. He's also older and isn't able to do as much as fast and all that good stuff. The Mack dealer that was in the area that did the heads rods and injection components ....all gone. I guess it's only going to get worse as time goes on. -

A true machinist is a dying breed . Most places only want to do CNC stuff and most parts anymore just get thrown away and replaced by something else. Polishing a big crank shaft like that ? Not a ten minute job. Not many guys will get involved (more than likely a guy named Matt will end up doing it) If it miced out ok, polish it and use tri metal bearings. (most likely all that's available for that application) Then you get to go through the whole cleaning ordeal again. Don't let some guy trying to sell something talk you into aluminum bearings. All the younger guys think they're all the rage. -
It is hard to see, but if the bushing is walking out of the rod, it's not impossible . It'll be hard to see it if it flies apart too, but that'll be from vision distorted by tears 😪

Probably better to pull the pan off and give it a thorough look at the wrist pins. You might find yourself looking in there without removing the pan.
-
not that kinda sweater puppy
-
Family friendly.... yes. Maybe Mack could change from using the Bulldog, to the sweater puppy as a mascot .
-
Still better to have and not want... than want and not have
