  • While I wait for the remainder of my parts to come in, I wanted to show all of you some of the parts that I bought for my R model Mack as well as a quick tutorial on how to dismount semi-truck tires. Things are slowly moving in the other direction, but that's okay. As bad as I want to get this truck done, I want to make sure that I am doing the best work I can possibly do and that I'm being as thorough as I can possibly be.
    If you enjoy the video, please give it a thumbs up so that it spreads to more Mack fans.
    Subscribe to the channel so you don't miss out on any new videos and leave a comment and tell me about your own experiences behind the chrome bulldog.
    Thank you all so much for watching and have a good one!

    Those manuals are worth their weight in gold

    Reminds me of many Saturdays spent working on the trucks when I drove a log truck. Saturday was usually tire and oil change day. My back still hurts... Those books are worth gold. The R model is easy to work on and tough as nails.

      Someone once told me, "if you're going to own a mack, you better have a strong back and deep pockets". I believe it, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Getting a lot of good parts. Doesn't hurt to have parts. You never know what you may use them for. Truck is gonna be nice once you've got it finished.

      Yes sir. It's only a matter of time before you can't get parts for these trucks anymore.

      I don't think any of the manuals I got are for anything that new. Manuals are worth their weight in gold.
