BAD DOG

I think you can get a kit for them from PAI still ?  Got remained ones for 866’s from Northwest Truck In Edmonton Alberta a few years back , they can rebuild yours too .

Lol ! Good one ! But anymore I wouldn’t put it past our windfall bunch of nit wits running things to actually do something like that ! 

Picking stuff up at the Nuker soon nds like a Royal pain in the Butt ! I’ve been past that place a few times and the SSteam was coming out of that thing and going across #2 Hwy . Roll up the windows for a bit . Lol !  I can see that place and the one in Monroe Mi right across Lake Erie from wher I’m at on a clear day .

Happy Birthday !

Happy Birthday !

Happy Birthday ! 

I got them from Mack not too many years ago , had to buy the whole pack though. 

866 is different . I had one in the archives too but sold  it a few years back . 

Mine is supposed to have the Sunnen compressor .   I had a Delo compressor and bracket on my spare E9 took it off years ago and put it up in the shop but can’t find it thinking my dad or brothers must have pitched it on me otherwise I’d use it .  

Sounds like the sycromesh clutches are shot . Coming problem with Mack 18 spd I’ve had a few do it .

I got Wix filters at local parts store just so i would not have to deal with the Idiots the dealer has behind the counter now

I got mine from my carquest store in town for years along with  Texaco Ursa 15w40 oil in 5 gallon pails and the carquest filters were made by wix then had good luck with them but now they don’t carry my Texaco oil and carquest filters aren’t wix anymore, so I use Chevron Delo now and Mack filters from my dealer but I only have to change oil in mine in the spring now as I only show it anymore, would like to get wix filters again though . Do you have the filter #’s ? I got another source for wix filters .

Where are you located ? Are these tractors still for sale ?

Didn't think you could still buy them new. Where did you get them.

You can get new Alcoa’s from Traction . They’re more money than hub pilots though . 

Finishing up some motor work on my E9  and stopped by my Mack dealer and got 2 pails of  oil to put in it because I have a half pail or better of Delo 400LE 15w40 left from my spring oil change  so I thought I'd save myself $80 since I just spent a wad on the ole girl fixing timing gears . When I took the pails out of the pickup I noticed they gave me the new stufff probably what they are carrying now . So I dumped both pails in with my usual 2 gallons of Lucas  I need about 2 more gallons to top her off . My question is it ok to top her off with the 400 LE ? Or do I just stop and get a couple gallons of this new stuff on my way by tomorrow ?

Yes fjh that's exactly what I'm going to do. I've used a lot of PAI stuff in the past and had good luck with it . 

Last one I had was on my MH which used the same one as a CL and if I recall I m pretty sure I had to buy the whole slave cylinder for the pedal  because they didn't sell a kit anymore that was about 12 years ago . I think I still have a couple used ones not much to them inside just a couple o rings should be able to find o rings somewhere that will match up.  Mack has just gotten terrible with anything V8 related . Went to my dealer yesterday to price a crankshaft gear cam gear and seals gaskets and a damper for one of mine  they wher just out to lunch . What they were able to fix bs on the computer was priced just totally retarded. Already found a couple other sources so I guess I won't be buying from my Mack dealer .

When I was a kid My parents and grandparent always went to Sears for all their big ticket items around home . And in the fall the Wish book always came in the mail and we'd be making out our Christmas which list  mainly out of it . Used to be a big deal when we'd get to go on an occasional trip to the city shopping  usually. Always included a trip to sears . But I've found about the last 15 years Sears stores over here in Canada suck they've totally went to shit !  They used to sell anything and everything and it was always good stuff but anymore it's just junk !  Last year I took my mother to the city to do here Christmas shopping and we went into sears the store is practically  bare now they don't stick anything or carry anything in general anymore and even there catalogue outlets they used to have in every small town are dying off . I can't se them being in business for too much longer myself .

are you wanting to use the ac delco compressor or the sanden? I have the sanden bracket but don't want to part with it, but could get you a pattern.

the delco should be stock  for your truck I think, I got a e-9 from a cl that has the sanden compressor. 

Would it be possible to get a pic or two of the Sanden bracket you have and maybe a few measurements, it would be greatly appreciated .
