    Converting a 923 over from motor oil in the Allison to transmission fluid.

    These trucks have millions of miles on the recommended military use of 10wt in service in all climates and for many years, No failures . A SS Member awhile ago put up a bunch of specs and further down it said the 10wt was recommended by Allison for extreme use. Keep it clean and run it.

    All batterys need a maintainer , I am amazed at how many people purchase a new batt and after a winter or a few months are surprised its not enough to crank over a motor, All batts even brand new should be brought up to a full charge, then the recommendation from techs I have called over the...

    5 ton Goodyear and Michelin tires, 14.00R20, how many miles do they last, empty M923

    Rotate them a lot, speed has the largest affect. So many guys are worried about going fast. wait till its time to replace them after only a couple of thousand miles, More than safety, that keeps me slow. Wide gentle turns, never turn the wheel if you are not in motion, these things help tire...

    Top Speed worries?

    These are tactical trucks, as fast as you can go is not a good choice, Like said above, over 60 is a seriously dangerous thing to do. You may well get away with it for ever , but the ods are not everybody will, once these trucks let go on the road, I don't care how awesome someone is, It will be...
