jake brake

last time i had my jakes act up. turned out to be the switch.

 

hey russ just if i rememebr the caterpillar part number i used for my 340E was 143-6628. that was a tune up kit. basic springs, link springs, control valves, inner and outter control valves springs and snap rings. i got the cat solenoid part numbers somewhere here.......

 

Russ, along with the 143-6628 kit, i forgot these incase ya wanna get deeper in it,the autolash screws were the red coded ones # 192-5502, new nuts were # 1b-4430, new soleniods were # 163-1533. each solenoid assembly come with all three o-rings. there is a special socket you can make one or buy one from pac brake for these solenoids. i bought one from pac brake along time ago for like 25.00 bucks. i totally gutted my brakes when i rebuilt them, so if ya need any more part numbers, i got'em man.

 

What serial prefix do you have with 340E's? All the MBNs i've seen with jakes are 340D's. I thought all the twin turbos from BXS and up are Cat engine brakes?

 

the 340E is for a later bxs. when converting a mxs accert over to single charger-70 pin 6nz style setup, having to get rid of vva/jake use a 340E# jake.

 

How would a BXS have vva with a 340E jake?

 

DO WHAT? re read...to get RID of the vva and jake combo of a MXS, your gonna USE the 340E from a BXS( for example bxs02992) on a MXS to delete accert junk.....

 

hahahaha, yeah, i can understand that one.....been down many times, but never at 144000.
