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
-
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
-
No wondering at all I'm thinking it's been off before..I just got this Truck not long ago about 3 weeks drives great just off Center..I'd like to place it back to center so my arm isn't straight all the time trying to hold on to the metal in the middle lol
-
2000 rd688 the steering wheel is so far off Center it's not comfortable driving I'd like to remove it and turn it back around..I tried to remove the shaft by unbolting it butilizes it has a slot the bolt goes back in and can't move it..so does the horn cap pop off or I need to pop the center that's kinda soft off ..thanks

Ok guys put about 2500 miles on my truck running great ..this morning same problem going to work same injector broke 2 new studs ..what's going on here..I'm hoping that I can just screw the Olds 2 out this time and replace with new grade 8 bolts again but this is crazy ..any thing I should look for to cause this problem..
-
