Bill 88 R 688 ST Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Finding plenty for the revised pattern with 4th high side by the seat, but would like to find one for the old shift pattern for my '88 R 688ST. I want to try and keep it looking period correct in the cab... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Remmers Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 I've seen plenty of reproductions of Eaton fullers but none for mack. Your best bet might be to have one made by a sign shop from a photograph of a good one. I'll see what mine looks like and try to get a picture of its decent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67RModel Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Maybe try calling Watts Mack and see if they are still available through Mack. Doubtful but you never know. You don't really have anything to loose but time to make a phone call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 The sticker part number is usually printed in the bottom corner. Is it not there any more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechohaulic Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 another positive for the B models;; shift pattern tags were metal; sorry couldn't help myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOBWhite Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Old pattern T2090 and old pattern T2090 are (correct me if I'm wrong) mechanically internally the same. 4/8 LO was changed to 1/5HI because 4/8 LO was found to be loud or damaging to the back box. I've read that the updated pattern is better or smother to shift than the old pattern. If you can't find or don't want to make a sticker for the old pattern the new pattern might have to be the way to go. Here is the old pattern and it's ratios. LO/HI is about the same as 4/LO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 88 R 688 ST Posted April 14, 2023 Author Share Posted April 14, 2023 Thanks bulldog, I do shift using the new pattern, but just think the new pattern sticker will look out of place in the old dog... Joey Mack, the part# area of sticker can't be deciphered anymore... 67RModel, Didn't even think to call Watts. I'll give them a ring. Hans Remmers, That's a good idea, if all else fails... Mecohaulic, You B-model guys are all comedians...🤣🤣 Thanks everyone for responding... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Print shop as mentioned I had a Briggs & Stratton stickers made up. They did a fabulous job. They even had a whole Internet page full of them. You might have the same deal. Good luck… Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Brand new decals on any restoration really make a big difference.. Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
