    M923A2 Transmission drain plug thread size

    Just to clarify, you looked up the part and the spreadsheet called for a 1" -18? Only reason I ask is another drain valve website says otherwise for a MT654... http://ezoildrainvalve.com/transmission-plugs.html

    M923A2 Transmission drain plug thread size

    Anyone know what the thread size/pitch is for the Allison transmission drain plug? When I drain it the next time I want to install a Fumoto valve in there to make future services easier. I can measure this time but would rather get one on hand and have it to install. Thanks!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I wonder if you could build a platform from the Class V hitch I installed on the back of the truck to mount the the crane/hoist to during hunting season? It is either that or I need to make the davit swivel. mos68x, mountain lion is actually pretty good eating, prepare like pork.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    My son drew out for Youth Elk up near Flag. I put in for the strip to start building points, wife and 2 kids will more than likely draw out here on Huachuca, mil hunting isn't so bad down here. Next time I am up in Tucson I will check out the lift at HF.

    That looks perfect for lifting big dead animals into the bed, may need to get one before hunting season.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I had actually ordered mine before the other went out too, just thought it was too good of a deal to pass up having a spare. Literally showed up the day after all the magic smoke left the old one.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Installed the awesome Alternator I got from 74M35a2, works like a champ. I didn't have any bar stock laying around to make a longer mounting bracket but did have a triple of a 15/16 wrench laying around and it does the job just fine. My old stock unit must have been performing poorly for a...

    Timing, EGT's and boost

    That is where I am at, except I changed the gov springs for the 3K ones. I see 25 PSI with an occasional 28-30. I get out of it around the same time.

    Broken sensor What is it for?

    I haven't found any other location that the Spicer part would integrate into the system and I know it is an upgrade for M923 series trucks (along with wreckers).

    Broken sensor What is it for?

    So is that Eaton part number the same as the Spicer sensor referenced above (other than the plug being different)?

    Broken sensor What is it for?

    So I bought the Spicer part number 513403 to replace that sensor but the plug to the truck is round, not flat like the new sensor. Do I have to rewire or is there a part I am missing?

    So who has bumped the power on a 6CTA cummins

    Just finished installing 3k springs and adjusting the full rack screw and the low boost. Full rack was adjusted to where the small 10mm nut is a little more than half threaded on. I took the low boost screw 2 turns. Truck also has 5" exhaust off the turbo and dumps right in front of the...

    939 EUC's ? Months after auction???

    Not sure if it is related. I am still active duty and we have disposition instructions to turn in a bunch of older vehicles. The codes were written one way and the Central Turn in Yard had instructions to only accept another (different) code. Found out this morning that the Sec Army pushed a...
