If the fuel filler neck on the tank is angled then it's an A2. If the filler neck is horizontal then it's an M923/A1

Dang, that's a mess!

In case this helps, this is how my M813 winch cable starts out. It appears that the wire rope exits the spool from the top and then goes under the large roller.

Yep! They would say "not an engineering problem...sounds more like a maintenance problem" And then send the problem on down the line Lol

Once upon a time in a previous life, my truck's fan got hungry and ate the middle of its recirc baffle so I get to replace them today. That bolt at the bottom is quite tricky, but not impossible. With a string tied on in case it drops and dangling from that string, you can maneuver the bolt...

They didn't know either but they made a video of the work: Maybe further in the video they reveal the size?

I got pricing figured out and have these battery hold downs listed in the classifieds. I'm hoping to finish up some projects and parts that have been in the works for too long. One such project is the 4 low-profile valve covers for jake break installs that I need to complete and make available...

I will be making up a batch of these custom 10 gauge battery hold down brackets designed for 8D batteries in the plastic military battery box. The J-bolts must be reversed/oriented so that the shank of the J-bolt goes through the inboard set of holes. Four J-bolts are used per bracket with the...

It would be like a short wheelbase cargo truck with a dump bed

I would definitely try to add a troop seat & tarpaulin kit to any dump truck that wasn't being worked just to make it a more versatile truck

Yes, it would work. I can't remember...does it require cutting out existing baffles and such?

No, they're still stock. I need to address the air restriction of the factory air cleaner first to make the turbo happy. Someday I'll think about upping the injectors but for now it's not a priority.

Sorry to hear about Sgt. Tibbs - a good cat can be hard to find.

Your efforts have paid off and your truck has got its 15 seconds of fame! Sgt. Tibbs might be a bit jealous and may need some consolation pets or maybe a cat video compilation to watch...

I've heard it said that when split shifting with these that you make the low to high shift first like if you're going from 5-low to 4-high, you would shift the transfer case first (low to high) and then shift the transmission (higher to lower). All in the same shifting maneuver but whichever...
