MACKS

What are the weight laws there,how much do for hire trucks carry legally because that what you have haul,keep in mind that a new drop axle is 6 or 7 grand and a few thou to install,that's with out tires,I know because i just had one installed on my 10/w dump and like someone else said 58 rears on a tri is over kill,its what i have on mine but that's what I had already,44 rears is what u want..Good luck

You can buy it at any Mack dealer.

-31 f that,lol

When the heck did you move to Alaska?

Loaded,empty or both,jack up the front end and greese the heck out of the king pins with no weight on them,then recheck your tie rod ends with a good load on the truck.good luck

Fortunately most trucks these days look like crap anyway, so the mirrors don't stand out as much.

True bit I'm seeing them more and more mostly on older trucks with straight flat hoods like KW and evn mack superliners,don't notice them on the new trucks,guess they fit right in.

Regarding opening post about visabilty from the drivers seat one thing is for sure,those big ugly convex mirrors like the ones on school buses are going to become mandatory very soon,I see them more and more and I'm not totally against them but damn they make a nice truck look like crap..

Never forget the three basics,Fuel,Air,Compression..good luck

You have to adj it internally and it depends what type of clutch you have,do a search on this site there is a lot of info already on here..

It's a Watson & chalin,not sure of model number,I don't know much about them so when i called my parts store this is what the ordered for me.

Will it even move without it?

Wow those bodys must be 30 yd water level and they can only carry 18,thats nuts but its almost the same around here with certian permits like with a state wide permit that most trucks have,they can only carry 18 tons on a triaxle with an 18 ft body,crazy

Best tranny ever built,you will love it!

Cant help with the part number but I just made my own up for my cl hood,got the cables in home d.

The last four years I have used china tires because on a dump truck one year is all we get.

I got 50,000 miles out of the last set of goodyear tires on my dump,the guy i work for used the cheap china tires and like you say they don't even last one season,they just disintegrate,you get what you pay for.

Ok I will check what would the primer look like and where would it generally be located

On the side of the inj pump underneath where the inj lines enter the top of the pump, youll see a round knob,you turn it to unlock it than you can pump it up and down.

Does it have a hand primer pump on the inj pump,may have lost its prime from sitting or you have a pin hole air leak in one o fuel lines,try and pump it up if it has one.

In okla we have to have ten feet between the steer axle and the first drop axle to be legal.How much can you gross with that now?

Once I renew my permit in a couple months I can gross 79000 but I wont be loading it that heavy.

Cha ching. Looks good though.

Loosing that pass. tank, likely cut your fill up distance in half! One 40 gal tank won't get you far.

Its a 70 gallon tank,still have to fuel up every day but thats the way I been doing it,to much troube moveing the truck to the other side of the pump.

Now thanks to the nys dot I had to add a 20,000 lb steerable drop axle to compelment the 58,000 rears and the 20,000 front axle, the good news is now I can gross 79,000 lbs,the bad news is it cost me a whole bunch of money that sure could have used on something else.I had to give up the passenger fuel tank for a hyd tank and switch my rear mounted pto which i loved to a pain in the ass side mount pto pump combo that was quite picey,still have to get the right rims and tires,more money!

Make sure the engine heater is working,they draw a lot of juce,the electric cord should feel warm after an hour or so and you should see a little spark when you pluk it in.

Could be an air dryer but the focus is on the way they fixed it,I would have used bailing wire..lol
