    M931/32 2 inch receiver hitch

    I had the same issue with my 923, I went to the local junk yard, bought a class V receiver hitch for $40. We needed to make the hitch narrower to fit the frame. You can see in the picture where we cut it to make it narrower. Once it was the right width it was still 2" short from reaching the...

    Utility Trailer Adapter for Truck

    I love the idea. We welded a Class V hitch to M923. Tucked it up under the Pintle about 1". Had to cut and narrow the hitch to fit the frame of the 923. We bought a 10" drop and it was perfect height. However, we sold the truck shortly thereafter. We just bought a 925 & 923. So we will be back...

    Recovery Mission - Atlanta to Southwest FL M923 & M925

    So we purchased our 1st M923 in October last year. Drove it home from Huntsville, AL to Port Charlotte, FL on November 6. No problems. Had a blast with the truck in different events and camping! Kids loved riding in it. Got it stuck one time that required a 20 ton excavator to get it out. Sadly...

    M923a1 alternator voltage gauge readings

    BTW, the alternator shop put the double V pulley described above, in rickycotte post, on my alternator. All included in the $145 I paid. He said it was better cause it was smaller than the MV alternator pulley and would spin faster. Lastly, I forgot to mention the new alternator is a 70 AMP vs...

    M923a1 alternator voltage gauge readings

    I just replaced the alt in my M923, used a delco 24v. It was recommended by alternator repair shop. Took it home, had to drill MV bottom bracket out to fit 1/2" all thread and top slotted bar had to grind to make slot bigger for 1/2" bolt. It only required Pos & Neg to be hooked up. It was self...

As of Dec 13, GL still hadn't rcvd it. But as soon as they do they are mailing it to me. After research I did, I found the same info...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Changed the Alternator on my M923 yesterday. Used a 24v automotive style. Had to drill the holes on the MV bracket to accommodate 1/2" all thread. Also had to open up the slotted bracket with a grinder to accommodate the 1/2" bolt up top. Good news it only required Pos & Neg cables to be hooked...

    New from FL

    Hi Yall, I'm new to Steel Soldiers. I purchased an '83 M923 Cargo from GL in Huntsville, AL in October. Drove her home on Nov 6 to southwest FL. 800 miles of no problems. Truck ran great and fun to drive. Little uncomfortable around 12 hours into the trip. But still a memorable experience. Would...
