Sold it.

I do not have a sound clip but it's extremely loud inside and out. The sound itself is fine, I drive a Dodge with a Cummins in it everyday so the straight 6 diesel sound is familiar to me. However with the soft top and the proximity of the exhaust stack so close to the back of the cab it is...

Like I mentioned above, I ordered various exhaust piping from an online retailer and made my own. I removed the factory exhaust stack at the joint just behind the cab and used reducers backwards to increase pipe diameter from 4-5 then 5-6. I also used a 6" curved stack to complete the exhaust...

Ladies and Gentleman, The truck is up and running again! Nearly 9 months since I began disassembly I have completed the project and am happy to report the truck runs without issue. I do have some photos I'll try and put up here as I have some time, however a complete "guide" on how to do it...

The parts did not come directly from Cummins, it's a company called "Cummins Direct" it's actually an offshoot of a much larger diesel engine parts supplier who's name escapes me, but Cummins Direct is how I found them. I did not install a coolant filter, if you keep an eye on your coolant...

The problem with any heavy duty diesel is the coolant system itself, they are very very sensitive to a proper coolant being used and monitored on a regular basis. In fact a lot of manufacturers will add a filter inline with the coolant system which both filters and adds in a chemical to keep...

To anyone who may be having this milky oil issue, if you want to pull your oil pan to see if you have a liner/o-ring issue you cannot remove the pan completely with the truck sitting on its wheels. The pan will hit the front axle and the pickup for the oiling system itself housed inside the oil...

Taking pictures with a brief description for each is no problem. Uploading them all here is somewhat tedious. Is there any other way to do it faster/easier then taking the picture with my phone, uploading to photobucket, then bringing them over here in a post?

Ladies and Gentlemen, My 923A2 has been suffering from an oil/coolant mixing issue recently and I wanted to share the results of what I've found and provide some info to hopefully help others. Over the past month I've noticed my engine oil becoming an increasingly milky mix of oil/water...

Good Morning, You did that last night? Sounds like things are looking better but there's something wrong. Are you still going to take it all apart? Joe

Looks like a Pinion Seal.

Pics to follow, couldn't upload them off my iphone or iPad, I'll get out the laptop and get them up with that. Sorry about the delay.

Ladies and Gentleman, Sunday my family and I took Cinco (the name we gave to my 923A2) down to Corova Beach, NC. It's a 70 mile trip from my home to the sand where vehicles are allowed to drive across the sand and set up camp for the day. We loaded up several large coolers, a 10x20 EZ Up Tent...

Thank you all for the opinions and suggestions. I ended up ordering various exhaust tubing from an online source and will be making my own exhaust stack as soon as it arrives. For what it's worth, if you don't have a good source for exhaust tubing or the desire to make the system yourself...

Gentleman, I have a 923A2 and I cannot be alone in thinking these trucks are far too quiet for their monsterous size and overall appearance. I understand the military wants them as quiet as possible as to not alert anyone to their presence, but as a civillian owner of one of these giants I'd...

Ray, Have you had a seal or leaks when you put in that oil? Just don't want to ruin a good thing. The only problem if you can call it a problem is the hard downshift from 2nd to 1st. Otherwise it's been shifting fine but I just want to do some PM and can't find the 10 weight oil in VA beach area.
