  1. I’ve been floating the EGR delete for these engines but haven’t had a reason why. I have one  ‘06 CXN612 that has an active EGR Mass flow code. I’ve seen advertisements for a delete module by OTR but now OTR doesn’t list any products for sale. Any suggestions would be appreciated I’d rather try something new than just replace the mass flow tube.

  2. You have some modifications to do for a '08 or newer cab swap. I call them the. New +3 cabs. Like previously stated about the HVAC, electrical distribution, and air distribution is different. The firewalls are a slightly different. The cab mounting would also be different and modified in front and the air bags mount behind the shocks instead of in front. I'm not saying it couldn't be done but it would take some re-work. 

  3. If they wanted the heavy spec market, that they once had, why wouldn't they be competitive with options like cabs, power plants, and price? I have scratched my head at this since the Titans release. I also don't understand why an ISX can not be offered in a CHU? They share the same frame as a Volvo which offers a Cummins? In my few years working at a dealer I've only seen a handful of Titans and D16's.

  4. Personally, I haven't been on BMT much since the change of site layout because it's harder to navigate on my phone. I can't change over from the ease of use that BMT used to be. Facebook is way easier, I'm friends with MIke on there and he seems to be doing good.

  5. Sorry about your luck. In other news Mack just in the last month announced 2v remack engines and heads and no longer available. The heads were made unavailable last summer and now the complete engines. Quality is down across the board on just about every brand. I've seen muzzle loader cylinder kits that's suppose to be drop in ready have all the ring gaps in a line.....aleast they are working with you. Shouldn't it be under warranty since it's a remack? 

  6. My experience with this problem has been shifter related in that position. When they pop out of the 1/5 position it's usually worn on the beveled edges of the gears and worn on the sliding clutches. A fuller "tune-up" is needed, replacing the gear, sliding clutch, and re-sealing it. The 310 maxitorque with the LL is pretty nice trans. A 10 fuller is shorter in length compared to an 8LL because the back half is longer for the deeper reduction. 

  7. Got an idea here, found a reasonably priced 2011 CXU. it has low miles and a MP7 motor, and it has a manual Fuller trans right now. The question is, is it possible to put a Fuller autoshift trans in to it? Off hand we are thinking ecm reprogramming, and possible wiring harness changes. That is besides all of the obvious things. Take out auto shifts are readily available and reasonably priced. Before anyone tells me to just find and a truck with an autoshift, or to hire drivers that can shift trucks, i just want to state that this topic at this time is a brainstorming session. We have made the decision that all new/newer trucks from now on will be some type of automatic/ autoshift.

    Not sure totally about the RR auto shift but I would assume the clutch is auto actuated which could be a different housing. Having worked at a Mack dealer for 14 months now I can only say I've seen 2 auto shifts in Macks with MP engines. Both were CHUs. Like you said wiring, ecu, programming, labor might be costly. You maybe on to something though
