  1. I think its that Greta P.E.T.A. doesnt 'Puff' on anything kid from,, New Zealand or Sweden or where ever it is, that Unicorns come from..
  2. Do you have any good news to post about the rear brakes?
  3. Yes Hayseed,, i tried to delete my attachments.. You tried to guide me through it.. I was not able to delete the pictures without deleting the posting that they were in.. I forgot how I learned about making a donation, but , after I did donate, I was given a lot more storage for pictures.. Jut sayin'.. Of course, it is quite possible that I made mistakes when I tried to clean out pictures.. jojo
  4. blue or green.. I prefer green.. No on the red spot for greasing....
  5. Amen !! I am sorry for you loss,
  6. For what it's worth. I fully agree with FJH.. the snap together ones fail exactly as stated..
  7. Oh My.. This is very sad news.. I always read his posts, and thought,,, this guy is amazing.. I am truly sorry, JoeyMack
  8. are there spider web cracks at the mount bolts? I forget if there is a piece of flat stock inside the door where the mount bolts come through.
  9. It seems to be the case, MarkT.. I have a machine shop here. one of only 2 within an hour from me.. I had some connecting rods re-bushed for a John Deere 3179 I was building.. I brought them home, and when I was ready to install them, I found the bushings werent fitted to the new wrist pin that I put in the box with them. If I had known that was how it would have been done, I would of just pressed them myself.. I did fit them myself. I even had to ream out the oil hole in the bushing because they were only half way open. I know you will build a sweet running engine.. Jojo
  10. PERFECT !!!!!!!!!!!
  11. Check fuse 40 in the engine fuse box..
  12. You need to start a topic on this.. status updates don't get much exposure..  you can copy and paste what you wrote, into a new thread.

  14. It kicked my A$$ all of March 2021.. I almost went to the hospital as well.. I still have trouble breathing some days and my ears are permanently clogged due to the many ear infections during COVID and the long COVID.. I I posted a topic on this back then.. not gonna lie.... I was a little scared,
  15. Swishy always brings the funny stuff!!
  16. Awesome!!!!
  17. Mech..???? Come on now.. 🤣
  18. I see what you are saying.. Crazy how they can take over and destroy the trucking world..
  19. You would be correct sir... JoBama is in the House..
  20. Hmmm,, I seem to remember Volvo/White /GMC.. ( WIA + WG) model trucks, back when I was a newbie.. I guess Volvo, has been trying to own all of the truck makers.. am I supposed to question my love for Chevy trucks?? I have a few of them..
  21. I just realized I may have posted the hand throttle part number... Sorry MACKS...
  22. Sorry Bud... however,,, it is really good that you found this issue.. i say Good Job..
  23. Im not really sure why a Mack 200 or 300 series synchro would go out early? a lot of the time, the o-rings for the range shifters are not replaced/lubed every few years.. Sometimes I think that drivers flip to 'lo' at too high of a road speed and over speed the rear tranny gears.. I have seen worn clutching teeth, which I relate too slow range shifters due to bad or dry orings.. anyway, I dont know if you have ever been inside a 200 or 300 series Mack tranny.. The synchro is large compared to Eaton or meritor.. I describe it as a 2 sides motorcycle clutch.. I believe there are 14 friction plates and 12 pressure plates, plus a thick thrust washer.. It really isnt hard to repair, but having a book for the first few times is very important.. too many steps, too just 'wing-it'... 🍻
  24. The book is 23 years old.. I got it after finishing Tranny school for Mack.. I have 4 sets of tranny and rear end books
