    Air control for trailers

    Turn on the gate valves in front of the gladhands. Make sure your red trailer hose is hooked up to the gladhand on the right rear side of your truck.

    Tyndall AFB, FL - recovery

    As a side note -- NO air hookups on a deuce. AND, judging by the condition of those trucks, I'd be leary of towing them.

    Do you need a CDL for a 5 ton

    The EMPTY weight of a 923 is 21,600. GVW is 31,600. GCVWR is 46,600. At the minimum, a Class B CDL is required.

    Do you need a CDL for a 5 ton

    Any truck over 26K GVW with air brakes. That's Federal DOT regs.

    ?? Starting of in 2nd gear??

    A good rule to follow (to not have to replace the clutch) is: if you have to give it gas to start out, you're in too high a gear.

    does anyone know what this steel plate is for?

    Good question. Can't say as I've seen those plates on any of the deuces I've done. Do you have the complete serial number? Off the left front frame section, near the shock?

    Road trip Florida to Ft Jackson SC

    These motors were not designed to be run full out for extended periods. No problem during shifting. Even commercial engines have a 2100 max rpm, but are only turning about 1600 rpm at 70 mph. The liners don't get enough oil, along with heat buildup, and this happens.......

    Road trip Florida to Ft Jackson SC

    From past experience, you might not want to run that 250 wide open at 2100 rpms for extended periods of time. Ask me how I know........

    MRAP wheels and tires today

    Not on those rims. And they will cost a tad more than a grand, with shipping, etc.

    What could cause this EMERGENCY

    Not ALL the 900 series trucks have a dryer. If I'm not mistaken, the GVW is around 33K.
