Popular Post Bbb Posted December 23, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 23, 2021 Well I got my new project back to the ranch, 3 1/2 hour run home, no real issues, needs better headlights and dash lights don't work, I've never owned a 13 speed before that's phenomenal , big thanks to Ernie for all the help, and my friend Larry for the ride over! Now the fun begins!!;) 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjc transport Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Pretty lady. Is that a hydraulic tank for a "wet line" on the passenger side between fuel tank and rears?

mrsmackpaul Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 On Australian R models theres a dial on the dash for dash instrumentation lights, turn it one way the lights go bright, the other they go dull, when this gives up th er ghost you get no lights, I'm guessing the U.S. Macks are similar, maybe the place to start looking Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjc transport Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 yup. the us macks had the same dash dimmer switch. DM, R, RD, and superliner all had them. i cant remember if the B815 had one though. i want to say yes it did, but not sure.

Bbb Posted December 24, 2021 Author Share Posted December 24, 2021 Yea that was the first thing I tried, luckily we were only an hour or so away from home when it got dark... I'll have to just chase wiring type thing ... She ran real strong tho..I think it's a great start to a build project!! Thanks to all on here! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Joey Mack Posted December 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2021 just for kick's.... rotate the dimmer switch back and forth really fast with the side of youre hand a bunch of times and see if it cleans the contacts... It works if the switch is just dirty or been sitting a while... great truck, My favorite Mack model... Jojo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bbb1 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Well the superliner barked right off in cold Feb in northern Michigan, we are still trying to decide what to pull behind it a lead dump or a lowboy... Any suggestions as to which direction would make more sense as all equipment is ridiculously priced these days... thank you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjc transport Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 why not both? dump when the low boy is not needed. 2 Quote when you are up to your armpits in alligators, it is hard to remember you only came in to drain the swamp.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbb1 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 This is a new service offered and I'm tip toeing into it ... Lol.. I don't have the work or contacts established to buy both especially how things are priced today... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmackpaul Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I'm really of little to know help here, however experience has shown me that what ever tool I think I'm gunna need I will actually need the other most of the time Dollars only stretch so far and every time I'm promised work it ends amounting to nothing or a head ache and even if something does result from the promised work I have debt I can never repay So for me the best results are achieved by finding my own way Anyway enough doom and gloom from me and best of luck Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake86 Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 I am a little late to the party, but welcome. That truck looks to have been setup by D&H Mack in Detroit. We redid one that was setup similarly. Feel free to look up my introduction, or PM me if you have any questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechohaulic Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 never had much interest in the superliners when they first showed up trying to replace the R-models; as time went and seeing the round nose ch series the supers are super.

mowerman Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Yes I was never really a big fan of them either I almost bought one back in 86 I don’t know why I changed my mind but I wound up with a cruise lighter instead I think because it was only a single axle I wanted a twin drive I think that’s the same with most of us that are into the R model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
