That's why the rebearing option is appealing. You can buy a core gear that is still intact, rebearing it and be up and running cheaper. You just have to make sure that you get the right core.
you must be a newbie to the mack volvo engine, when they went from front gear to rear gear they forgot to change the thread direction, and the nut would back off, had a recall where you drilled the rear cover and installed a roll pin to stop it, hundreds upon hundreds failed, @@battleaxefabandmachine
What is the all in $$price parts labor for what you’re doing??? I’m ready to rebuild mine 03 12.7 det. 1.24mil still working, trying to find the mechanic though...thanks for your video good information..
14 to 16 hours labor to do the job there is no short cuts put a new bull gear in it . ! The left handed nut is 800ft lbs . Pay me now or pay me later is how thev saying gos !
I have a question My 2010 dd15 pulsating when idling but the rpm doesn't move around and also i just had fuel pump put on. Do u think it has anything to do with idling bull gear at all?
Hey Tim, I have a 12.7 Detroit that needs to be overhauled and a bullgear replaced, block counterbored etc. just wondering how much would you charge for this. Thank you. I’m in Strafford
450 foot lbs for the gear. rebuilt a few and if I remember correctly its the same bearing used in the 71, 92 idler gear and you need a 1 to 4 lb pull with a scale to get a preload on the bearing to get it to work properly
I had an overhaul done not even a year ago just had replace my head I think this is why…. Can you do this job for me I need it done asap since I just got my head put back on…How long do you think before I mess the head back up should I park it immediately? Pls let me know I just think I found out my problem don’t wanna mess my truck up again I’m an owner opp they told me I was good for 1.5 million miles I haven’t even made it a year yet…. Maybe 215k at most if that I been down alot I think this is why nobody said anything about this 😡
Hope you can help me out. 2002 S60 12.7 when it's fully up to temp shutting it down then starting after few mins will whine somewhere up front for 7-10 sec then fade away. Checked bullgear and all other gears no play removed all belts still whine BTW no whine when cold. I did rods mains and new oil pump pressure valves 6 months ago there was no whine before or after. I thought it was a oil pump bought new nothing. I am beginning to think those pressure valves are what's making noise as I can hear whine under oil pan right where those valves sit what do you think? Thank you. It also changes with rpm
It could be the valves. If it's been doing it for a while and you have no problems you might just let it be. Maybe not the answer you want. You could also put new regulator and relief valves in it.
I've never had to remove something that required so much torque so how would you stop the engine from moving I'm assuming if it's a standard you could leave it in gear but what if you had an automatic behind that does Detroit have a place to lock the engine out or do you have to get creative.
Remove the accessory drive gear the pulleys that drive the belts use a pry bar against the bull gear and the back of gear case should be no play if so replace or repair bull gears. (ACE) 40 year Diesle tech.
Probably the bell housing leak. Common problem on these engine. Remove trans , clutch, oil pan, support block, remove bell housing off back of motor. It’s a very big job. 5k is high but once u add motor mounts, seals, oil, new clutch, trans oil, resurfacing bell housing and reseal and install the rest. Big job for sure.
For a 14 liter 60s it cost 29k at dealer for me. Remove block. Reman crank. New head new turbo. New compressor and new egr valve. Plus some other hoses and clamps thru the job. They are not cheap but not as expensive as others. 4500 labor is a great deal.
You cannot be working at an authorized ddc dealer. This is NOT allowed. That bearing kit is aftermarket not ddc authorized. If your core is good they are not $1200 . Just sayin', do not attempt this at home. The cause of loose bull gear is not the nut loosening, it is typically fuel in the crankcase caused poor lubrication of the bull gear bearings causing the chrome to flake off the rollers and races. I replaced many bull gears and we got them for
Although I have worked at a detroit shop this wasn't. Yes the kit is aftermarket. The reason it is available is because it can be done successfully. Fuel dilution is not the only reason for failure. Man made parts wear out. I have done it a handful of times with no trouble.
Just got a pm done on my 2008 s60 freightliner. They said they found a tooth while draining the oil. Truck was running normal. Do u think I can run a few weeks before getting the bull gear replaced?
@@battleaxefabandmachine when they saw the piece of metal they removed the oil pan to inspect the bottom they didn't see anything. Is there something I would notice while driving that would say its the bull gear?
@@custommade8830 no. It may have had a previous failure and that gear tooth was a left over. I would pull accessory drive and bar engine over and look at teeth

You used aftermarket before, Are they any good in the long run? I'm inframing my series 60. Machine shop suggests FP diesel kit. My aim would be to get another million miles out if it. Any suggestions. Thx
I have had good luck with ipd stuff. I think I have even used fp stuff before. The key is to measure everything with a good micrometer and to have the block cut and counterbored.

Much appreciated! I have more confidence in tackling this job now after seeing you do it and explaining it. Thank you sir!
Smdh...I just had mines done with ALL the gears in 2017 & it broke off teeth already. I have no damn idea why.
Man i really appreciate your thorough explanation and good photos of how to remove and replace the bull gear
I rebuilding a 60 series right now. I inframed it and was getting ready to set my cam back in and found a tooth missing on one of my bull gears.
That sucks but at least you have caught it.
i hate it when these gears cost that much money to buy, only lucky place to find a cheaper one is ebay

900 ft pounds is the correct torque for the left hand threaded hub nut should have 5 lbs.of drag on timken bearings. F.Y.I.
Good to know
5 lbs of drag is to much. Should be 1-3 lbs of drag. If you have 5 lbs it will not last long.
There is a preload on the new bearings FYI
Oh my God I'm having this problem with my Mack mp8 bull gear. 2 Mack shops told me $17k job to replace. Been sitting for 6 months
Damn bro that sucks that Volvo D13 which is the same are notorious for that bull gear going. Get you a loan and pay it off in 2 years 🤷🏾♂️
willmann30 a loan 😂🤣
Buy another engine
I work at a mack/volvo dealership now. We don't have bullhead problems. It's usually just timing plate leaks.

The bull gear can be rebuilt for way less than $1500 .

When the nut is tightened, how do you adjust the preload? Do you alter the thickness of the spacer between the bearings?

Can bull gear go bad and seize engine
I have never seen it but I suppose it could if piston is hitting a valve. If they fail while the truck is moving it usually just bends all the valves
What size of socket
Chinito Shampoo I don't know. I made my socket around the nut of my first one years ago. I can measure it.
Chinito Shampoo 3 1/4

How many miles before bull gear starts going bad
No set mileage. To many variables.
There 900 from Detroit Diesel
How do you know when the bull gear is bad?
Pull accessory drive, use pry bar to pry bull gear front to back. There will be flex but should not be play
Great content 👍
How can I check for play on bull gear without removing entire front cover off? Is it possible? My motor is 60s 99 model
Tony Hernandez you can check it through the accessory drive hole
Remove the accessory drive gear the pulleys that drive the belts use a pry bar against the bull gear and the back of gear case should be no play if so replace or repair bull gears. (ACE) 40 year Diesle tech.
Tim my gear box is leaking oil really bad next to the block dealer tells 5000+ to fix it. What would you do it for?
It's probably cracked on the back gear case. $1500 plus parts
Probably the bell housing leak.
Common problem on these engine.
Remove trans , clutch, oil pan, support block, remove bell housing off back of motor.
It’s a very big job. 5k is high but once u add motor mounts, seals, oil, new clutch, trans oil, resurfacing bell housing and reseal and install the rest.
Big job for sure.
Hi Tim where are you located for a inframe?
Strafford Missouri
What is the name of the company where you got the bearings from?
You can get them at any bearing distributor. I bought mine from a place call BDI or Bearings Distributor Inc.
