With decades worth of design and engineering experience, it should come as no surprise that Mack Trucks are some of the toughest and most durable trucks on the road. They’re designed to handle incredibly heavy loads, travel vast distances, and keep their driver safe and comfortable the entire time. Mack Trucks are almost unstoppable, but they’re not immune to maintenance needs. Just like any other truck, Mack Trucks won’t run well unless they’re adequately maintained.

Fluids and Filters
Just like any other truck, a Mack Truck needs fluid and filter changes on a regular basis. Common fluids include engine oil, transmission fluid, and differential fluid. These fluids lubricate moving components and reduce friction and heat. This will keep your vital components operating at peak functionality. As for filters, you need to change your oil filters and fluid filters at the same interval as your engine oil change. This ensures your oil is clean and keeps your fuel injectors unclogged.
Brake Systems
Mack Trucks carry extreme amounts of weight, and as such, require extreme braking systems. Most Mack Trucks use air brake systems which can be very complex. Valves may leak over time, compressors may break down, and airlines may get clogged. It’s vital to inspect these components on a regular basis.
Tires and Wheels
Your tires and wheels are rated to carry a certain amount of weight. However, as the tires start to lose their tread, the weight they can carry decreases. Hence the need to reduce tire wear as much as possible. You can do this by rotating your tires on a regular basis, and keeping them properly inflated and aligned.
