    Wheel Identification

    gringleltaube, I have read lots of threads on the balancing, I was trying to get some advise on what works the best. I guess I worded it wrong. I also wanted to hear from someone who has done this before that could give me some pointers to make it as easy as possible. I do know to start by...

    Got my 5 ton stuck in the woods in snow and mud.

    I had that problem with my M932A1! I got the air up to 120 and locked it in and nothing, while the truck was running (in neutral and brake applied) I got under the truck and made a few taps with a small hammer on the actuator at the transfer case and it broke free. I cycled it several times and...

    head light issue

    I had the same problem. I just got a 923A2 and after a week or so the light on the drivers side blew, I had a new one in the box so I installed it and it worked for 4 maybe 5 times and it blew. I took one out of another truck and put it in and it seems to be fine. I don't have a meter to check...

    M105 wheel / brake drum help

    Getting ready to buy one and need advice

    My 2 cents! The best way to have your questions answered is to make a fisical inspection either do it your self or have someone close by do it for you. I prefere to do it myself and only bid on items close to me that I can inspect ( I learned that the hard way ), if I were to buy a 5 ton from a...

    Low air pressure warning buzzer drives me crazy.

    Mine is the same way on one of my trucks and when I start it up I am looking for problems. I will correct it asap. I like safety items of that nature, a hard hat with nothing but clear blue sky above your head, now that sucks.

    Allison HT740 transmission

    Would the shifting points be any different? Also I have read a lot of threads on turning up the 6CTA8.3's and the weak points seem to be the trans and transfer cases, would a trans swap leave the transfer the sole weak point. I am thinking of bobbing a 923A2 and turning up the fuel but I would...

    Found 50cal brass dated 2006 in my M923 truck when I was cleaning out the cab...?

    Does it have lockers? I think that is 06 year, look at the Lake City (LC) the bottom of the letters are down at the primer. That is why I say 06.
