dang, an 18 speed tranny.. versatile.... nice rig. Yeah wish I was able to buy Macks and refurbish them.. I sure could use todays money... jojo

I wonder if the Electric cars come equipped with a small "Gas Powered" generator, and 2 can's of "True fuel", and a power cord, just in case you want to go somewhere but cant get there or back home? jojo

Hi Mackey... on the RW I was working on, we just put the old, working, manual slacks back on.. rather trying to remove the S-Cam and machining another snap ring groove in it and then try to put it back together.. jojo

Vlad, I think that is one of those questions that will have several answers. I was taught years ago that you put it in dry. Then I see guys putting a bit of grease on them.. I grease them now... I only put a small amount on both sides.. The reason I started doing it, came from maintaining a 30 truck fleet, and got tired of replacing clutch brakes on a regular basis, no matter how many times I told the guys, "Please,, Do Not Push the clutch all the way to the floor while in motion" you are not driving your pickup truck. Of course I got cussed at and told, "Iv'e been a driver for 1000 years, dont tell me how to drive.. So.... on with the grease. to me it provides a "Fuse" to keep it from breaking. just my experience, and besides, when you grease the clutch brake some grease comes out of the throwout bearing onto the clutch brake anyway.. jojo

I tried to buy paint for an E-Tech im building, and I got the last 4 cans, none available from mack.. jojo

yes...

Frieghtrain.... you truly believe they will shut big oil down? i hope you are wrong.... just saying, respectfully, jojo

Glenn, I wish I learned what you know about injection pump's.. You are The man... jojo

does it have the steering pump bolted to the back of the compressor, like on many R models? if so, i bet it has a bad seal and its sucking oil from the compressor.. jojo

and one other thing... I hope you fixed the oil leak that created that mess in the bell housing.. just sayin.. jojo

isnt there 2 little black buttons below the gauges and above the steering column.? jojo

its also a dog dish flywheel and not a flat faced flywheel. so the pressure plate is a different style. and yes,,, it is a pull type pressure plate, not a push type... jojo

Say it aint so ,,Joe.... Please.... jojo

its all good Man... I am not the sharpest tool in the shop, but I do try to help when I can.. are you willing to post where you are? no biggie, if not.. for the sake of privacy, you can P.M. me.. jojo

its a 2-Valve... the part number I gave you is correct... jojo

I do not know of a stud kit for the 4 Valve, not saying there isnt one, just dont know.. Mack did a good job with head studs and re-use was ok.. torque to 205- 210. you should be good.. I expect other opinions to show up here, but I bet i'm pretty close.. jojo

its a 4 valve... why do you want studs? the head bolts in it are good to go... jojo

is this truck an old waste mgt or republic waste truck? like a roll off for example? jojo

So I just re-read your post... Do you have a 2 valve or a 4 valve E-6? jojo

studs... i cant post any more pics, otherwise you would have seen the package I have.. the nuts may be an issue.. so clean yours really good for re-use, the thick washers may be found a bolt supplier... jojo

so here in central N.C. our local news stories are about violence on school campus's.. They question students on what needs to be done to help fix this issue.... of course the students want more policing... no chit!!! these are the same D-Bags that held up a sign at racist rally's, saying "De-Fund the Police"... they Reap what they Sow...... luv it.. jojo

to me,,, Volvo had a hold of Mack since 2002, if not a bit sooner... what you want aint painted redish pink... jojo

ok...... FPDiesel.... part # FP-610GC1123... check it out... jojo

ok, in a bit I will try to find the part number.. im building one and have 40 new ones. the nuts and washers were an issue for me, so i blasted them and they are in good shape.. jojo
