  5. The City os Salisbury asked some of us to do some community work at a local school. We planted 30 shrubs and spread 3 tandem loads of mulch today. I had the pleasure of piloting the Mack that brought the loader. It was a nice day at work..

  16. The low pressure switch operates the buzzer, low air light and not sure about the brakes lights .
  17. yes sir, but my re-building knowledge of eatons an meritors is weak, with the exception of 10 speed back boxes. However, Mack transmissions where one of my many skills when I worked in the Mack Dealerships. Thats all i got..
  18. in the Mack transmissions, the speed gears have 2 thrust washers in the middle of them, held in with a snap ring. one washer has splines on the inside diameter, that engage the main shaft splines, the other washer has large teeth on the outside diameter that engage the clutching splines inside the speed gear. that thrust washer is to keep the sliding clutch at the proper depth during gear selection. The speed gears that are back to back of each other on the main shaft have a ground surface on the back sides. these gears are thrust against each other. snap rings on the main shaft keep these gears from sliding up and down the main shaft. the sliding clutches are splined in the inside diameter, and are slid over the splines on the main shaft. when this is assembled, as GW said earlier. the countershaft gears keep the speed gear centered. the main shaft is centered by bearings on the ends. the front one being a spigot bear engaged into the input shaft. the speed gear from front to back are as follows. 4th-5th-3rd-2nd-1st-rev... my post is from my head and not my books, so there's a chance I left something out.
  19. and?? I may have missed something here.. sorry GW.. even though I was a tranny builder for Mack years ago, I have lost some memory. So I say its best that I drop out..
