Pm me some information on it Thank you

So my engine is pretty much shot need a in frame

Ok guys I’m in need of more help replaced the air compressor new from Mack clean all lines with air and changed filter put the truck back to work this morning it’s pushing oil out the breather on the spinner housing never had this problem before oil pressure was normal around 25/30 hot idle and 50/55 driving still has same pressure am I doomed here or am I over looking something that needs cleaning I’m going to pull the blow by filter clean and check it once it cools down Thank you

I totally understand that and appreciate your help and all the others as well

I appreciate the help you still working on these old dogs 👁️👁️ I’d like to get some bearing rolled in and a overhead tan on the old dog i replaced the rear stand several months back and I’d like to keep the old dog healthy if so let me know I’ll drive it out once I get the air compressor on and done Thank you

Yes I have a new filter to go in it I plan to pull the lines blow them out with shop air I appreciate all the help got it ordered today from Mack pick up in the am

Good evening today my driver was hauling asphalt (dump truck) and suddenly temp went up truck shut off he gets out check under the hood Fires it back up and the air compressor is pushing water out the side and through the over flow (reservoir) tank I’m hoping that it’s just the compressor and nothing internal any help or guidance will truly be appreciated 21 yrs in trucking and I’ve never had this kinda issue but anyway to get the load off we open the valve for the water to flow through the heater core and left the cap loose so the pressure wouldn’t build got the load off and truck home temp was about 180 drain tanks water and dripping out the air compressor none in oil so am I correct on air compressor and if so does this have to be timed like injection pumps Again Thank you 🙏🏽

I’ll check with them tomorrow that’s where I got my new trunnion and stand from that I’m putting in

No I thought of that even saw it done on YouTube I call a salvage yard see if they have1 Thanks

Any of you guys know a place I can get the very top leaf spring from for my rd688s rear i had to cut the stud that holds the spring pack together with my plasma and I guess it got it to hot or to close and boom hair line crack Mack don’t sell just the 1 only the pack at 1000.00 it’s the little 1 under the u bolt plate if you know of anywhere or anyone I’d appreciate it hate to spend a 1000.00 Thanks guys

Well guys I’m trying to document my journey on this jnstall serms my pics or to big but I’ll try get them so I can post them I’m at the point of sliding the springs off and cutting the stand out I’m about 5/ 6 hrs in rain on 2 days so not on it as planned

Any of you guys know of a good place to buy a replacement 1 inch reamer for my chassis the 1 I had is now missing

Yes sir I appreciate all the help you give out

Here’s a picture of the stand

They are supposed to to be better the factory the design and build and of course easy of installation my truck came with rubber busing no grease fitting and it’s 4100.0” I opted for the brass busing with grease fitting 2200.00 I believe all parts and stand was cheaper then just the factory design stand with rubber busing shipped was around 3500.00 sigh all parts needed

I’ve used 1 in my other truck before no problem with it heavier steel the other 1 and this 1 cracked in the same place right off the chassis in the bend and this 1 has a few more cracks

Yes sir I have the mag drill and reamer

No sir I bought the 1 you cut the old out and new comes in from top or bottom

Ok guys need some guidance on this had a trunnion replace in 1 of my other Mack dump trucks the shop that did it the owner passed so now it’s time to replace another in the Mack I have left I’ve ordered the trunnion should be here Monday any tips or tools you guys can tell me to assist in this I called around to get it done but everyone is at least a month out or more and 6/8 thousand dollars Ive owned and maintained trucks and equipment for almost 21 yrs I feel I’m over thinking it my plan is to get the front end on blocks get the back secured and cut it all out Left everything I can out with my excavator then jack the back up I also have to ream the holes out to 1 inch but like I said any tips or guidance will truly be appreciated Thank you

No it’s plumbed with coolant it has a radiator coming from lower radiator that goes to it then another radiator hose off the top that goes to the oil cooler As well I believe it has 5/6 different hoses that comes off of it

I sure hope so

That’s what it looks like

Yes sir couldn’t get anything in it and didn’t want chance putting a hole in it I think I’ll just remove the cooler and see what’s going on I price it online 1200 smh lol but I know it’ll make a difference in the temp I’m sure it runs around 180 all the time looking at gauge but it’s not cooling the entire motor I worked it today put my hand on the radiator hose (bottom) and it’s hot put my hand on transmission lines just warm and the cooler is not hot
