That's the arctic heater, and as you said it mounts in place of the coolant based heater. All the 939s I've personally seen in Alaska have one. The only exception is *my* 923 and that is because I bought it from WA and barged it up. Maybe one of the Alaska members other than myself bought...

So far I've found some oil that does meet the milspec. The first one that got back to me doesn't sell that oil anymore. Shell does make a diesel oil in 0W-30 that possibly could, but it also seems to be a Europe only oil and I'm not exactly fond of the idea of trying to ship 15 gallons of...

You're talking about a completely different type of motor, altogether. It's not just about whether you havea 6cyl or V8.... that 6 cyl displaces around 14L or 855 CI http://www.atlanticdda.com/DDspecs/Series%2060_specs.pdf

I'm also concerned with the oil specifications too. I just don't know what the transmission fully needs. It's easy enough to find the specified weight if I don't care about anything else with respect to the oil.

As far as I understand, not all oils are created equal. If you can find the actual SPECS on the mil oil I think it would help. The oil specified seems to be a diesel oil and I've never seen a 0W30 diesel oil availible normally. I'm not keen on taking risks with a different spec oil just...

I am getting everything from one truck, so I'm hoping I won't need anything extra, but I will definately keep that in mind, thanks!

So, unless someone knows what OEA-0W30 corresponds to, will 5W40 rotella suffice?

How was the install? I'm going to be doing one this spring (I'm adverse to that kind of work in snow if I can avoid it).

As I progress through actually winterizing my 923, I need to start seriously considering what to do about the oil in the transmission. When it comes down to it, SAE30 or even 15W-40 is awfully thick at subzero temperatures. I already talked to cummins directly and was cleared on using...

I want one. Then all you need is to find the part number for a longer belt that will allow installation and removal without touching the water pump on a truck that has the original belt installed already (alternatively you could adjust the water pump to the loose side the first time). Is...

Is there an easy way to clear error codes? Or read them for that matter?

The DOT is who told me to do it. They told me I need a weight slip specific to that truck and to keep it with me and it would take care of any questions. I did run into a guy with a duece registered as an RV, with a cot in it under the canopy. I'm not really sold on this method myself, it is...

Becuase I need to show that I can make the truck weigh 10,000 lbs or less completely "unloaded." Otherwise it has to either be registered commercially with DOT numbers and all (and associated insane fees) or I convert it to an RV. Which, ironically, will make it weigh much more than it does now...

I did search, but I haven't found anything like this referenced. Does anyone have a good idea how low I can get the weight of an M211 by taking components off? We're talking single wheel, removing the bed, no top, no doors (if neccessary). The magic number is 10,000 lbs. Is it feasible...

Do you know the condition of the alcan now? I'm sure the areas that they had to do the repairs to are still in fairly shoddy condition. Regardless, wish I had gotten a rig together to make the trip. Maybe next year. Only going to take 3 or 4 runs to get everything up there....

Nevermind, I just discovered the convoy thread. Real pity, I originally planned on that week to do an alcan drive myself, but none of the trucks that need to make the trip are ready.

Is this convoy for a vacation or a one way trip? Have any of you done it before? How much does that trailer weigh? How about the combo weight?

I didn't find anything in a search. Does anyone happen to know a part number or application to use to get the hydraulically actuated brake light switch for the M211? It mounts on the frame rail on the passenger side just aft of the cab. The problem we've run into is the switch using a...

If there is anything else you need, we don't have our winch mounted due to the plow being in the way until we can cut off some brackets (for the plow, not the winch), but everything else is there on the truck still down to the driveshafts. Might make it easier to get measurements.

I just read through 12 pages to find out that production was canceled right before the ending....
