NJ TRUCK

Will the Mack factory or museum be open?

So, after some further research, looks like the right part number is

TRW/Ross   HF 642984

Looks like two of the same topics in a row. I have a 1978 Mack power steering box. There is a lot of play in the steering, when you move the steering shaft back and forth there is a ton of play.  I am looking to have it rebuilt or replaced. I am unsure if it was factory or added after. So my question is, any ideas of a shop that will rebuild it or replace it? What should the ball park price be? I have it off the truck and will reinstall it.

I am in the central NJ area.

Only part number I can find is on top of the pump is 402893 if that helps.

Thanks

We can all imagine but,

The two or three in the front row with a little work looks like they will start right up,

Change the fuel filters, fresh batteries a little starting fluid and boom,

a running U model.

I think I remember this company in a post on here years ago, hard to believe these trucks are still sitting there.

Nice!!!

IDK what is even going on here.

I've enjoyed the conversation about the old Mack trucks. I don't have a social media account.  It does seem like there has been less activity on these boards. 

Macungie sure will be different with out the Skip line up. Always said it must take  a lot of time and effort just to get the trucks there.

Glad I was able to witness it over the last few years.

There are two or three threads going, but I will post here.

Rich, real nice pics of the show.

Once again thanks to everyone who puts this show together and the guys who bring their trucks out. 

I stopped by the information booth about 1:30pm and they said there was a record turn-out of 840+ trucks.

Seen some really nice trucks, the time, effort and $$$ that goes into these restorations are very impressive.

Keep up the good work and see ya next year.

Is this show open to the public, or you have to be a member?

Thanks

Cool truck and pics.

That truck has seen plenty of action, love the history.

I think these trucks still have a purpose in the fire service, even after all these years.

In my town here in NJ, no commercial vehicles on residential property. IDK if you register it antique, probably would still get some issues from neighbors. Have to remember, we might think the old trucks are cool, but most neighbors don't.

Dam, 

Cut a tire, repaired or had to replace it?

No straps on the coils? Should be chains? Just asking?

Nice looking pilot in the wheel house!

Cool Mlke,

I thought they were a little better on fuel.

Maybe someday I will spot ya running the top end of the NJTP.

Nice,

What type of work are you doing with it?

Keep us updated on how its working out.

Happy New Year from a cold New Jersey.

Everyone have a Happy And Healthy 2018!!!

Love the "Pictures of the Week" segment. Now I'm going to have to make a nice meatloaf this week.

Great show once again. I would like to thank everyone who makes it possible. Special thanks to the guys who bring the trucks to the show. Feel free to add your pics.

Is the onion load secured properly?

I used American Collector Insurance in Cherry Hill a few years ago for my Monte SS, They were good to deal with, and reasonable. Worth a call to see if they cover antique trucks.

GREAT SHOW!!!   Thanks to everyone who run this event. I was walking past the command post and the MC announced, we have our 700th truck. 

My only concern would be attracting the attention of a DOT Officer. We all know once you get pulled in for an inspection, they can always find something wrong with the truck. I have no problem with using older, paid off equipment.
