It is a Federal 17-A  ,like your photo shows it mounts on a pipe, friend of mine just picked one up at the Spring Melt in Allentown Pa. 2weeks ago $125.  try the Sirenman .com ( in Ar.)

the new ones spin too fast,guess you could put on a voltage reducer to slow down.

anyone have any leads on a Roto Ray with red bulbs ,the old type that turns slowly

what are those reddish in line sleeves on the brake line tubing? very clean looking up grade

does it have hydranlic brake or mechanical ?

Glade you got her back on the road

I put the petronics in both of the distributors on my 54 LS85 Mack . if your Mack is positive ground system you have to specify when ordering.

Your Mack is a classic ,the molded in roof lights are one of a kind, how could anyone scrape its twin? I would love to see the Mack when you get it done,where in pa.are you? (MACK Capital of the World)

that's it

Their a fellow in PA. that reproduced the Mack brackets for taillights call Cal Little in Hummelstown Pa,(near Hersey) 1-717-566-8973   that is where I got mine for my 54 LS85

Thank for the info, when I get ready to change I'll go to the dual master cyl.  the hydovac on my 54 LS85 is a little different than yours.,wish I had air brakes sometimes too.

   You did a nice clean job on all your upgrades.

real nice but the steering wheel is on the wrong side

nice job on the master cylinder, is that an adapter plate that you had to make for the master cyl. and what is the new  master cylinder from? what engine is that ?

looks nice & neat and safe too

extra ' air conditioning' vents side and roof , couldn't get a teaspoon more on the dump. also has side vents on the hood not like a usual 'L'

Spring melt in Allentown PA. in april ypu should be able to find their B85 from vendors.

  the years of your fire trucks would not have the trim piece that I would need, thanks anyway

would you have the center brace that attaches to the windshield and top of the dashboard ,this windshield is the later type that had chrome trim around it. the brace was wider at the bottom and tapered at the top. 

do exactly as 1958 FWD said at Napa, funny but true.

TRY NAPA FIRST (SEE THE OLDEST COUNTER GUY FIRST) ,IF NO LUCK SEE WHITEPOST REBUILDERS IN VA.   they rebuild my master cylinder and hydrovac ,quick turnaround . check their website

It is actually a rectifier my LS85  pumper has one and the many I have seen have them to balance voltage. 

please let post what was the final problem. did you check the coils? also is it on both ignitions A & B that it happens.

great looking 'B' Mack , your at the right site for information on Macks, if your on the east coast even better. their is a big parts (everything ) meet in April called the Spring Melt in Allentown  Pa. Also help to joint an association like a local chapter of SPAAMFA for info on musters & all info related to the 'hobby' . I'm in south jersey ,belong to the Cradle of Liberty Antique Fire Apparatus Assoc,(check our website). I have a 54 'LS85 Mack  (open cab)
