    Plode's M923A2

    It's leaking out at the connection where it goes from copper to rubber. Enough oil to coat the leaf springs, and there was a few drops on the bottom of that connection when I was under there today. The front of the line where it goes into the compressor is dry. I mean, it was honestly enough...

    Plode's M923A2

    I just looked at the TM, it definitely is the air line from the compressor. Great...the plot thickens.

    Plode's M923A2

    The top of the steering reservoir is completely dry. It really looks like it's coming out of that line, but that wouldn't make sense if it's an air line. I'll clean it all off and see if I can pin point the leak.

    Plode's M923A2

    I circled the leaky hose(and the leaky fitting specifically in the one). Is that a power steering line? It looked like it goes back on the frame rail somewhere, but I could be wrong. Does that connection have O-rings or is it something I can put some teflon tape on to seal up? I did...

    Plode's M923A2

    So the other day I bought a 1990 M923A2 off of another forum member. It has the Cummins 6CTA 8.3L engine. Engine has a tag says it was rebuilt in 2011. Been going through it the past two days to see what is wrong with it, and what could use work. I've been trying to follow the TM's but...

    M939 Series Maintenance Manuals

    This is what I planned on doing- taking it to Staples and having them print it out. I plan to punch holes in them and put them in a 3 ring binder.

    Ham Radio Operators / Steel Soldiers

    That mount is huge. 3x 5" magnets... I know these trucks are big, but is there anywhere to even mount that, other then in the bed or on the hood? :lol: I don't have an issue drilling or installing military mounts to install an antenna on the truck. It does have a hard top roof, but is that...

    Ham Radio Operators / Steel Soldiers

    So I'm buying a M923A2 in the next week. Already am thinking about installing some rigs in it. Definitely a 2m/440 rig- I do have a Yaesu FT-7900 I can run for now- any input on an antenna to run? Would eventually like to get a D Star rig in it since a lot of local OEM's have installed...

    5 Tons in New Jersey

    I've rented a Penske box truck in the past year that was less than 26,000 GVWR, but it had air brakes. Guy that did the rental said I did not need a CDL. I'm a little confused on this.

    Ham Radio Operators / Steel Soldiers

    KC2GYU here. General class. Just bought a used Yaesu FT-2000 off a local Ham, I plan on putting the Kenwood TS-480SAT that it replaced in this M923 I might buy.

    5 Tons in New Jersey

    For those of you with M923's here in NJ, I'm looking at buying one very soon and have some questions. I found one about 15 minutes from here for sale. 1. How is your truck registered, and how much does it cost per year? I was looking at doing the non-commercial truck code 15 registration...
