Very little in common between Brockway and Mack besides looks and corporate ownership.
Brockway were essentially "assembled" trucks using components from outside suppliers: Continental (gas) and Cummins or Detroit (diesel) engines; transmissions and axles from Brown-Lipe, Eaton, Spicer, etc; brakes from Bendix-Westinghouse, ect. AFIK only Brockway frames, sheet metal and trim were made in house.
On the other hand Mack manufactured virtually the entire truck: Engines (both gas and diesel), transmissions, axles, frames, sheetmetal, etc were all designed/built in house.
Note few Mack engine/transmission exceptions exist: Cummins and Detroit diesels were occasionally used. And the last production gas-powered Macks had Chrysler V-8 engines. Also we have a 70's Mack R grain truck with a Fuller 15 speed behind a Mack Econodyne diesel.
