  1. Thanks. After calling all around the country, it looks like they are going to be my best option 🤞
  2. I'm looking for a used or rebuilt TRTXL1070B transmission. I looked on the internet and have 10 places to call in the morning. Any places I should stay away from or does anyone know of a reputable place, or have one for sale? Thanks
  3. I came on the site from my laptop hoping that i wasnt seeing something on my phone. I still cant figure out where to delete attachments or donate.
  4. Ok. You make a donation to the website? Where do you go to do that?
  5. I've added some pictures here in the past. When I try to add one now it says I have reached my attachment space. Does anyone know how to clear the old attachments? Thanks
  6. I just serviced the truck last weekend and forgot about that one. I wasn't aware there was a filter there until someone on this page told me about it. I changed it out last service and it looked like it had been on there since 1989. I have one ordered. I'll have time tomorrow to climb around looking for the problem. I'll definitely check that wire, Thanks!
  7. Nothing electrical under the seat or under the cab in that spot. Someone said it was a module behind the alternator. My mechanic said he didn't think that was it. He hasn't worked on a lot of Mack's. Another guy told me the cables from the batteries will go to it first? I'll have to follow them tomorrow,I'm hauling today. I had a couple hours yesterday and was hoping it was something I could steal off my parts truck. Thanks
  8. Can anyone tell me where the parallel switch is located on this truck?
  9. I have an 1987 E9 400. The batteries on the passenger side are not changing. The ones on the driver's side are.My mechanic told me the alternator is working and the batteries are good but would have to dig into to figure out why. He said he didn't think it was a bad wire . He suggested getting a 12 volt starter and wiring it for that. Any ideas on what I can check?
  10. I'm looking at buying a truck. What information can I find out about it from this tag?
  11. Trying to fix things myself. My truck temp is all over. It doesn't get above 150 if its cool out and will go above 210 when the weather gets hot. The truck is at a shop getting something else repaired now. I was told to get it warmed up and shoot the radiator with a temp gun to check to make sure it isn't clogged. Would it do that if the thermostat needed replaced? Looks like there is two on this motor, how hard of a job is that to do? Thanks
  12. It was definitely due for a change
  13. I talked to the guy who does my annual DOT inspection and he said if it was hidden well I wouldn't have an issue getting it inspected.
  14. I'm having trouble finding someone willing to repair it. I've talked to a couple welders who didn't want to mess with it. From what I've been told I need to get it welded and then fish plated too. The DOT regs say as long as repairs are bolted/ not welded according to manufacturers specs, it's ok. In 27 years of driving other people's trucks I don't believe I ever ran one with that kind of frame repair. At least not that I noticed
