It's in this D M 607 unfortunately the rest of the truck is in bad shape pretty much a parts donor

Would this be what I have seen referred to as a baby quad it looks like a quad box and is it a step up from a triplex
-
I don't have any video just have some pictures that I have a hard time loading. I don't use the yarder as much as I would like to we do a lot of ground logging here if you put the tracks on the back of the tigercat you can get around on some pretty steep ground
-
That picture is from a unit near the base of mount Pisgah on the Cruso side not far from Waynesville around November last year

North Carolina set up on a rock bluff about 300 feet above the landing on a rock bluff dropping turns below takes two loaders to keep up keep it moving while the weather is good

Yes I am a contract logger I specialize in steep slope mountain logging this picture is of my brother in law and his son's yarder they are still in Washington state it is a Skagit trailer mount Washington 127 I think it weighs in around 225000 it needs a D9 to help it up the mountain but when it is set up it's awesome. I am in north Carolina now and I have a little bit smaller yarder it's hard to get the big machines around here

The contact points inside the brake light switch get ate up like a set of points in an old ignition system and all you can do is change it out also anywhere a wire is allowed to flex or wiggle over time its like bending a paper clip back and forth until it breaks it is hard to find these things and like you said there are ways around them -
That was my old shop this is at my work shop where I put a E6 350 in our yarder it's a British foden 6x6 tuff to get that in there because it is right hand drive and I used an 8LL

Really nice lift DCW my bike only weighs 350 pounds I know a lot of the Harley guys would just pick it up and put it on the table to work on but I am getting old and getting down on the floor is getting harder. If you were going to build one for someone what would it cost?

1989 Mack RW-613

Before you charge the parking brake circuit and release the brakes if you have air on the stop light switch it is getting through one of the other valves and they can be hard to track down if it is a problem only after releasing the park brake the upper brake chamber can leak through the seal separating it from the lower brake chamber and leaking into the service brake system -

I have found in the past that with the park brake released (yellow button in) it usually is coming from one of the park brake chambers leaking through to the service side -

Yes just pull the big main pressure line and plug it at each valve and build up air check one at a time also the one for the front brakes -

I believe the tractor protection valve would have to be charged before any air pressure could get from one side to the other the brake relay valves for the service brakes are in the system also and are suspect to leak pressure back through the service brake circuit -
Yes if you look at the front bottom of the fuel tank there should be a shut off valve same on both tanks with a fuel line connecting them

Front leaf spring bushings and pin replacement
D-Day replied to Ricky Beals's topic in Driveline and Suspension
For a quick check I use a small bottle jack on the spring behind the axle to jack against the frame just a little bit and remove the shackle and you can then check the bushings and pins -
We always put on fresh gaskets, once the fire ring is crushed and used its compromised, I would think having a squashed spot in it probably would not last long
-
I found this some time ago but have not had to use their services yet, they say they specialize in reproducing gears of all kinds from reverse engineering and from drawings may be worth a call to see if it is cost effective Circle Gear and Machine, Inc. 1501 so. 55th ct.

Your tachometer should be mechanical unless its been modified in some way it would be driven by a cable from the front of the engine ahead of the fuel injection pump

Mack B-75 inner fender extensions
D-Day replied to DaveB6875's topic in Exterior, Cab, Accessories and Detailing
Yes there are a few different size inner fender panels I may have an extra pair B73 and B75 are the same I believe, ill measure them if you don't find any closer to you I'm in western North Carolina, the little fender extensions are a different problem they are scarce and I do not have any but there may be some in South Carolina
