  1. Here's a recent press release from Mack

    United States Marine Corps Taps Mack

    GREENSBORO, NC, (October 21, 2010) – The Mack Military Group within Mack Trucks, Inc. was recently awarded a contract in support of the United States Marine Corps (USMC) Buffalo A1 Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle. The contract calls for remanufactured engines and new transfer cases to be used in Buffalo MRAP repair and reset efforts.

    “At the heart of every Buffalo A1 is a Mack truck,” said Ryan Werling, director of defense sales and programs for the Mack Military Group. “Nearly the entire powertrain, electronic architecture, and cab interior are derived from our rugged vehicles and are a true testament to the durability of our products. With the Marine Corps being a major owner and user of Buffalo A1s, we are committed to supporting them in any way we can.”

    Deliveries will start later this year and continue through the first quarter of 2011. The total value of the contract is approximately $1.3 million.

    Its quite amazing to look at such a huge trucks, looking at the history of mack trucks in the military. It is just amazing.

    thanks for sharing this pic. :SMOKIE-RT::mack1::SMOKIE-LFT:

  2. First and foremost thing check whether driving shaft is rusted or not, check gear box whether every thing is OK in it and then the pump drive.

    please check all the parts are proper and not rusted, do the proper oiling of the parts. :clap:

  3. I recently converted split rims to one piece tubeless rims, without using a bud or aluminium wheel. The one piece rims allow you to use tubeless tires and they fit right over your spoke hubs. Once installed, the untrained eye won't be able to tell the difference. Also, you won't have to worry about the hassle and danger of the split rims. The one piece rims are made by Accuride. They have a pretty good website, with a comprehensive product catalog. I will write back with more specific info in the next couple of days. In the meantime, I posted a few pictures of the installed one piece rims. engine3

    thanks for adding the pics,

    As i am a new member, i was bit confused, but got clarified after looking at pics.

    keep it up.

  4. "Built like a Mack truck" might refer to a formidable person, but the tag is what Mack Trucks hangs its reputation on. The recognizable bulldog logo, likewise, reflects the strength and durability that the company's heavy-duty trucks are known for. Mack Trucks is one of North America's largest makers of trucks used in construction, heavy hauling, highway, and refuse work. It also makes powertrains, which comprise an integrated system of engine, transmission, and axles. The company leases, sells, and repairs its trucks in more than 45 countries through a network of approximately 670 sales, parts, and service centers worldwide. Founded in 1900 as Mack Brothers Company, Mack Trucks is a subsidiary of AB Volvo.

    he Power To Haul It All With Cummins Grunt

    Get behind the wheel of a Metro-Liner, Super-Liner or Titan and you'll find Cummins power providing plenty of motivation up front. Mack and Cummins have worked closely to develop premium Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) power packages for the new breed - and the ISC, ISL, ISX and Signature 600 engines really complement the New Breed range.

    The Mack MP8 and Cummins engines use the same emissions technology with a Variable Geometry Turbo (VGT) and a self contained, cooled EGR system providing reliability without sacrificing fuel efficiency.

    And if you were worried about performance - don't be.

    Exhaustive analysis, testing and real world operation over billions of kilometres have resulted in stronger power and torque curves, with improved throttle response and greater engine braking.

    These engines keep Mack ahead of the pack in the high horsepower market.

    They're reliable, they're strong and they're ready to handle future emissions levels without fuss.

    Mack and Cummins diesel power - the industry's best technology for the future.

    Cummins Turbo Technologies' VGT features a patented sliding nozzle design.

    This is both simple and reliable in that there is only one moving part in the hot exhaust flow. Electronic actuation also ensures fast response.

    Another feature of the VGT is that there is no need for wastegate adjustment because the turbo doesn't have a wastegat
