    clutch brake

    does anyone know how to adjust the clutch brake? when I push the clutch in all the way, it grinds going into first and reverse. maybe the clutch itself needs adjusting but I think maybe it's the clutch brake??

    pintal plate

    I had the welder over today and we put a pintal plate on my Mack. I went with 3/4" plate. my IH 4900 had 1/2" plate (already on when I bought it) and I jack-knifed the truck/trailer once with the JD 450 on it and the 1/2" plate bent, not much but it definatly bent. I think the 3/4" will do...

    brakes

    well I installed the new slack ajusters on my Mack, manuals, and the truck stops SOOOO much better. but now that I can actually adjust the rear brakes, I can see they are REALLY wore down. so tomorrow I'm gonna pull the brakes apart and replace the shoes. I've never done brakes on a big...

    slack adjusters: manual vs auto

    My old Int'l had manual slack adjusters, and now my Mack has automatic. I don't think one of the rear is working, can I change the auto's to manuals? I don't see why not. I kinda like knowing that the brakes are adjusted properly. I can see where auto's are better on tri-axle trucks pulling...
