What you guys suggest as a good mileage for oil change on this truck..

Thank You for the information I would have figured they would be higher..

What you guys think of the six brand filters..we use them on our race car so I figured I would get some opinions on them for the truck..

2000 rd e7

Thanks

Ok guys 2000 Mack rd 688 the slacks on it now just don't adjust anymore time for replacement..ive never replaced 1 before so I really need some guidance..i see these have more parts then my freightliner does....any help would be appreciated 

I'm in North Carolina..just talk to Mack 354.00 dang I'm going to see about replacing the  bushing lol

Not bad to drive in rain long as you don't have to much air in the drops..i run about 30 psi ..in my Tri axle I had 50 and couldn't turn had to pick the axle up or hit the ditch.lol so now I run 30 in it as well ..but all together the truck drives very well and pulled great..time for a oil change and air filters I only can pull bout 9psi of boost..

Just wondering what kinda weight you run on the steering axle when loaded with a setup like that?

The trick is tagged at 72000 ..425 65 22.5 floats on front ..not sure bout front weight but there are plenty of trucks set up this way even new trucks are built like this now days

Rear end tq rod that runs from chassis to top of rear end with stud on 1 end cross bolt on other anybody have a reasonable price part number place to get this beside the Mack dealership..munes is about gone I can move it with my hand..

I've turn the 1 off that's on the driver side of the motor..it still blows hot

This reading is from the a.c. running while sitting still ..does it look right..i have no clue lol..also it cuts off and on ..i added 2 cans of 134a still off and on .thanks for the help

I've turn the 1 off that's on the driver side of the motor..it still blows hot

E7 motor rd series..if I let the truck idle it gets down to 40 degrees in it  but if I drive it blows hot air ..where should I start looking..

Thanks guys

Still hot air coming in from somewhere guess I need to find the opening..

Ok guys 2000 rd trying to turn the heat off so I can use the ac..I found 1 valve on the driverside of motor is there another..e7 400 thanks 

Around here there's 2 brothers that do them for 1250.00 most time 2 days tops..

Thank you I just didn't won't to mess things up figured I would ask first..new to make but loving mine so far ..

Ok guys my truck has a fuller 8ll Trans..I have adjusted the clutch in my freightliner before but the mack is a little different so I thought I would ask before I do..the clutch is releasing at the top not much free pedal..I took the cover off butthe release bearing is different from my other it looks as if it rides on the cross shaft my other truck is just the bearing this truck has a cable with a couple different points looks like to adjust other is a rod either top or bottom..so please guide me on this ..thanks in advance 

Thank you guys I got it fixed..I took the bottom coupler off the gear box and turned it to where I needed and works great..thanks for all the help..now I have to replace a set of Orings on 1 of the injectors..

Hummmm makes sense thinking about it ..guess I'm stuck with a out of line steering wheel..

Ok guys I have a issue..I tried to remove the wheel with no luck..so I moved it on the first joint at the box ..the 1 on the top of the adapter..moved it about half inch to the left and now I can only turn the wheel about 6 inches in either direction not even enough to turn the truck much..I plan to put it back where it was at but why is this ..I didn't move the gear on the steering box ..just pick the shaftup and turn it to the left about half inch..

Thank you for that

Oh!......BTW......when taking the horn button loose, try not knocking off the rubber dog ears cause if you do then it is harder or never get the horn to work.

This is what I'm worried about..

Do I remove the center plastic or do the big hard plastic come off ..

Yes new springs for sure .and yes it touch the wheel stops plus I have 425 65 22.5 on the front no cookie cutter tire lol

I tried taking the top section off but put it back cause when I removed the bolt it had a groove cut in it for the bolt to keep it on place..I didn't try to remove the bottom cause I figured it was the same as the top ..now it may not be so I will check it out..as far as the turning radius lol its no as much as I'm use to..I'm thinking cause my other truck is a tri axle with 16foot bed my mack is a quad with 19foot and about 2foot from cab..so I figured it's the reason it don't turn as good..but I will check it out to see thanks for the information on that
