    Thanks, I know you told me before, but forgot.

    is there a flapper in the turbo pipe? or a little ways back in the exh. pipe.
  4. Joey Mack
    this is a common complaint. some have replaced the injectors and the exhaust manifold with a manifold from and E-7 or E-Tech. then theres the programming in the ECU

    check fuse 40 in the box on the firewall next to the steering column. we will also need more details, like, is it losing prime, can you prime it up to get it started, any sensors been replaced lately, and so on..

    Working in a dealership had stronger requirements. I adhered to the rules. Hard knocks learning was happening anyway, but I took the schools seriously. I was limited to Mack, but did work on other brands. Take it for what it is.

    So, why I am posting the way I am is because I was trained by Mack, and have built a few dozen Mack rears. Of course, I have not seen all issues, but fixed many. I am also a good study and own the books that I was schooled with, 3 sets, to be honest. My library is large. With respect, Jojo

    You can come off the fuse panel with a 15 amp fuse, attached to a 30 amp relay, and connect to the heads. You can even go fancy with a head light switch so you can select one or both engine brake heads...
  9. Joey Mack
    you could put a fuse switch on the shifter for easy access. There would be a lot of switching on and off, but it would work.

    I wouldnt say 'Bad'..

    given the procedures to set tooth pattern and preload, there would not be enough of the housing left because you need to reach in with tools and strike the bull gear with a dead blow hammer to make adjustments. The thin metal wall of the bowl would likely warp during the cutting process and then not be stable enough for the assembly procedure. Its not a bad idea, I just dont see it holding up. and a 200 series carrier has to be taken apart during the preload and tooth pattern procedures between the spur gear and bull gear, and the bevel gear and bevel pinion, because of the spur shaft housing. A 92/93 series can be done as a complete assembly.

    The housings are the same
  13. Joey Mack
    its 2 bearing caps that have 2 ears on each, so 4 points of contact on the bearings.
  14. Joey Mack
    Keep in mind. The bull gear in a 200 series is wider than the 92/93 series. There is a cutout in the original tool.
  15. Joey Mack
    Take your measurements on an assembled carrier. I'm telling you... if the bearing cage tool isn't right, you won't get the carrier to fit in the bowl..
  16. Joey Mack
    The dowels are like table legs. They are essential and must be the same length. Assuming you are having one made. Are you having one made ?
  17. Joey Mack
    It engages the ears on the bearing caps, isolating it to fit not only the bolt holes but also the flanges inside the bowl of the carrier housing. The bull gear tooth root pattern and bearing pre load is done with the caging tool in place. The suck part about 200 series carriers is that you have to set top reduction first then pull the spur shift to install the 1 piece bearing housing, then set the spur gear to bull gear tooth root and preload. 92/93 series is easier. Have you tried to take the 200 series rear gear apart yet? If not you need to be mindful of the 1 PC. Spur shaft housing. novice,s break them..
  18. Joey Mack
    Awesome!!!! I wish I one, and the caging ring to set the bull gear. I could make some money rebuilding Mack rears.

    When I decide on Whiskey, I like Jim Beam.

    Bob. That was one of my points. Designed to work. Not give me a Caddilac ride. Luv u bud..

    When I was a new driver I came off the road after 1 year + and went local with a prominent construction company in Scarborough Maine. I learned how to drive!!! I drove 1975 -1979 R's and DM's. 9 spd, 12 spd. And twin stick 107's.. fast forward 25 years.... Those old Dogs were hard working trucks that could take a beating, and give me a beating at the same time.. Just my thoughts born from only a few years working Macks in the dirt...

    Happy Birthday 🎂 Hans Remmers

    Bob. I have tried a few times to post a picture from my book. But failed.. All E-6 2valves have an oil pressure spec of.... 25 PSI at 600 ROM idle speed, and 40-95 PSI At governed speed, with hot oil..
  24. Joey Mack
    The drive shaft may need to be shortened or even lengthened. You can also put an E-7 flywheel on it and an Eaton Easy Pedal clutch in it at the same time..
  25. Joey Mack
    Yes, and the ECM. I know someone with just such a set up.
