    M939 series 5 ton capacities

    Not from Portrayal. Also, just found another possibility. PM sent to give you a chance at it before I post up to the public.

    MV - Heavy Equipment Discussions?

    Also, just an FYI… If you do order a manual, be certain it covers your serial number range.

    MV - Heavy Equipment Discussions?

    Index of one of the parts manuals on ebag. One of the only few other photos that where taken during my rebuilt 15 years ago.

    MV - Heavy Equipment Discussions?

    Been there done that, plus welding new grouser bars on. Hope your back recovers quickly! If you ever have to do the D7 use a 28mm socket and the most bad as impact you can get your hands on. The 28mm fits tighter than 1-1/8”. I still wore out two impact sockets just changing out one set of...

    MV - Heavy Equipment Discussions?

    I would think by time the G rolled out A/C should have been an option, but not necessarily for the military. Any chance you have, or have checked the D7G Cat manuals? If Cat ever optioned A/C for the G it should be in there. If not stop by or call your local Cat dealer, they are “usually” very...

    M939 series 5 ton capacities

    I just ordered 1984 version, but it has changes 1-4, and a little beat up. I will update when I get eyes on.

    M923 receiver/hitch assembly

    The more I think about it, with as much as these trucks flex, I would cut the hitch back off and make it bolt onto the bottom of the frame…

    M923 receiver/hitch assembly

    Not trying to be offensive, but I would not trust it. I see a lot of issues with design and installation. Those braces should not be attached to the bed. Square or a rectangular cross tube would be a better option to mount the receiver to instead of pipe. The side plates look like they could...

    M923 External Air

    I’m not around my truck this week, but what I suggested “should” be fairly easy. Tee in a quick coupler and add a check valve just before the horn solenoid on the firewall that is just before the horns. The electric side, IIRC the horn button completes the ground side of the circuit? If so you...

    M923 External Air

    I would look into isolating the horn completely from the rest of the air and electrical system. That way you can keep the air tank drains opened/spring brakes engaged and the starter, as well as the rest of the trucks electrical system disconnected…

    M939 series 5 ton capacities

    I checked my 1996 version of the –10 and the on-highway weights (page 1-9) and the key verbiage on the description and data sheet (1-18)we are looking for have already been omitted. I would think the pre CTIS 1984 version should still have them, let me know if you find those pages I will gladly...

    Do we know how long the auctions will continue?

    I would guess for at least 3 years, 10 months, give or take 3 days…

    m925a2 winch issue?

    For some reason I can’t make a link, so I just bumped up my thread for you a few hours ago. It may give you an idea of what you’re looking at even though it was very hard to get pictures that are easy to comprehend. Search “M925 winch control tower repair” and it should pop up, or maybe somebody...
