NAPA had them for my Mack 10 years ago , tip go to the oldest counter guy. Also you may want to change over to Petronics ,no points needed ,Petronics is electronic ,have to order if you have positive ground battery connections
-
Finally fixed and G from Iowa was correct it was the Alternator that was bad and not large enough to for the load ,the new Alternator is 105 amp ,rectifitor and voltage regulator removed . the new alternator had it added on to the back end. had to have a machine shop machine a double pulley to match belts.

Distributor shaft oil lube
609albert replied to 609albert's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I will get a small piece of felt to put in the cup and just add motor oil -
50's Mack 707 distributor shaft has a spring cover cap on side at bottom shaft their a inter opening (not a grease fitting) the question is what type of oil to use to lube, their is no mention in the service manuals that I have, thanks in advance
-
ok ,we know that the pulley alinement is most important , thank you for you wealth of tech advise
-
the generator,rectifier ,and voltage regulator all look like the pictures
-
the generarator has 3 studs on top that are wired to rectifier , and the Mack is positive ground
-
Yes ,It has a Generator, rectifier and voltage regulator mounted on inside of firewall (in cab)
-
yes batteries are new , it has the large disconnect switch and rectifier
-
1953 LS 85 Mack,has new 12 volt batteries ,it is not keeping the batteries charged as it should currently has a generator and a rectifier , we are thinking to change over to an alternator, the question is what or how do we address the rectifier connections or are we going in the wrong direction

nice project truck & at 72 on way home when purchased. I like your pole building ,I would bet it is a Morton and I wish I had the same truss arrangement on the 2 I built at my son's property . I have a 54 LS85 Mack fire pumper in it -

hub size

we put Daytons on my 54 Mack with 20'' spokes and 1100 x22.5 radials (chinese) what a difference . did all 6 wheels ,no more split rims , -
Just a suggestion after you get the carb straightened out is change the points to electronics in the distributors and make sure the coils are good . If you have positive ground the Petronic (brand name) have to be for positive ground also
