    Anyone have any videos of 900 series trucks mudding?

    poorman4x4: It looked like your front left tire was in a hole nearly to your bumper! That's why I wondered if weight in the back would have helped. Thanks for sharing that, it was quite interesting to see what the truck is capable of.

    Bought an M151A2 today.

    Great looking vehicle, it looks like it is going to be a ball to drive. Makes me want one!

    Anyone have any videos of 900 series trucks mudding?

    Hey poorman4x4, how did you get out of that mudhole and would weight have helped or hindered you?

    M925 difficult starting when cold

    That would be fast for my 925. In cold weather it takes about 30 seconds of cranking before it fires off. I don't start getting smoke for about 15 seconds and then it takes about another 15 seconds to light off and that's WITH the block heater. It wouldn't start at all in cold weather before...

    So....what do you guys exactly do with these trucks???

    Welcome to the site and be careful you just might catch the fever. It's a great question too. I bought mine for three reasons. The first is, I just like big trucks. I also own a 1979 Pete and believe it or not, the source of parts for military vehicles is much better than most other trucks of...

    6.5 Turbo ?

    I have a 93 and a 97 6.5 and they are night and day different. The 97 runs the electronic Standyne db4 pump with the PMD. NOT a good system. I would stay away from that if I were you. Also, the earlier motors were heavier blocks. The 1993 is reported to be the best cast block they made and it...

    Plug missing on transmission?

    Sorry. Don't know where my closing quotation mark went, it should be behind - 1999" All directly from the Webster website. Direct quote.

    Plug missing on transmission?

    Hey I can help there. According to Merriam-Webster : "Definition of SNARKY1 : crotchety, snappish 2 : sarcastic, impertinent, or irreverent in tone or manner <snarky lyrics> — snark·i·ly \-kə-lē\adverb Examples of SNARKY <working all day with such snarky jerks is exhausting> <with...

    NHC 250 Block Heater Inst.(PICS)

    Hey Scarecrow1, it looks like Neophyte came through for you on that part number at NAPA. If that doesn't work for you, let me know and I will stop by the store and get detailed information for you. Truck stops in S.C. probably don't carry them, some here in Mo. do and some don't. Even further...

    Gun Truck Brutus.

    Noble project vtdeucedriver. I wonder how many of these trucks were made? I had a friend in Vietnam late 60's who wrote me a letter about mounting a minigun on a gun truck (though I was under the impression it was a tractor/trailer) and it ripping out of it's mounting the first time they shot...

    NHC 250 Block Heater Inst.(PICS)

    Hey Scarecrow1, try NAPA, that's where I got my ether. If they don't have it in stock, I bet they can get it in for you.

    NHC 250 Block Heater Inst.(PICS)

    Amen Mike, do you like how it works? I think I must have a fuel issue (think I am losing prime). I started the truck yesterday after being plugged in for three hours. It was 20 degrees out. I used the primer pump and it pushed air for about 30 seconds before fuel came out, I closed the pet cock...

    Do you let it set (the polyurethane) or put the wheel together with the polyurethane uncured?

    M923A2 Cold Weather Recovery Tomorrow!

    Awesome truck! I can't tell for sure but it looks like you might want to take a spare with you. Unfortunately I needed mine on my recovery, that's the only reason I mention it (that and bottle jack, lug wrench and a hoist.) At least if you take it, you probably won't need it......

    TM Operation Manual question

    Boy this "Stacking" is news to me. I have two 6.5's and drove class 8's for years. Not sayin it isn't so, just sayin I didn't know it - learn somthing every day. emr is right about the big rigs though. Since about the mid 90's the class 8 motors have been computer timed with the injector volume...
