I really goofed and only test fitted one pair of inner and outter masts. And of course the pair I tested fit great. So I went to insert the "second" inner mast into the "second" outter mast and trouble. I missed that the outter mast was slightly bent and the inner mast would not fully insert...

Here is tonights progress. Fishing the wires up through the tubes. The kit came with cheese ball toggle bolts. I switched to full threaded bolts that I think works wayyy better. The kits supplies the strain relief. Time for the dome lights. I added some of the washers and neoprene...

Here is yesterday's progress. I decided to go "depot rebuild". Assembled and then painted. The rebuild on my M923 was too nice to let some green part slip in. The silicone in the lights was pretty punky so I hogged it out and replaced it. I was also disappointed with how the dome seal...

Yes, can you please ask? I think that's a great idea. Yes, there is a parts list, drawings, instructions, etc. I'm working on finding the right scanner as the page sizes are an odd size.

So those "nubs" I'm seeing on your pipe posts, did you weld those one? They look stock so well done. What are they? Were they a custom fab? I'll test fit mine tonight and see if I need to lower them. I'm thinking its a good idea - would be a shame to rake them off. Thanks.

Thanks! That helps a lot. I think I'm in trouble with height but I did measure my shop door and it's 11'6". We'll see when I fit everything up. I also see I might have to make some small changes for my soft top. Thanks again, Al Jones

Ya , I'll bet you score one of your super duper deals and pic one up for less than $100!

Any chance you can post pictures? Also, have you put a tape measure on the lowered height? I'm getting nervous that they might be too high for my shop doors. I hope 11 feet is enough. Thanks for the heads up on the ubolts. I wondered about that. Also, what's the deal with the directions...

Keep up the posts! Look at your "views" count. People appreciate what you are doing. Al Jones '84 M923

Google the NSN off the box and there are several kits out there for sale. The P/N 12301057 will also lead you there. Al Jones '84 M923

Santa was was more generous to me that I deserved and brought this: I'm going to install it on this: So the question is, do I leave it green or paint it tan prior to install? Anyone with a tan truck have convoy lights installed? What color is your hardware? I have the paint but I...

I bought mine from Memphis as well. I thought they were high quality units. I followed the TM and sealed the zippers and let them set over night, and then mounted. The TM calls for safety wire, especially at the torque of the retaining rings (which is very low). Note with proper safety wire...

The heat was coming from underneath the truck, combination of exhaust (minor given the pipe is at the top of the box) and motor. Not sure what the question is regarding the grommets. The relocation box only requires one huge one for the slave receptacle. Al Jones '84 M923

Subscribed. :popcorn: Best of luck.

Not if it's stock. Standard 60 amp alt. has the VR on the back of the unit. Use search for lots of info. It sounds like the alt. ran wide open to boil the batteries over. That means the brushes grounded out to do that. Pull the unit, then the VR and decide if its fixable. The VR is...
