    optional tranny for M915 series?

    I have heard of people trading out for a 13 speed manual. I love the cat 16 speed. its easy to use once you get use to the shift points and with the lower rears you can pull some serious weight. the older m915s had the cat trans. then in the early 80's they went to the allison. I would like to...

    Put new style LED's on my M923 but...

    You need to add a resistor 3 to 6 ohm 50w between the power to bulb and ground to mimic a bulbs resistance to make it flash. so 1 resister per side if memory serves me right.

    Super single hemmit rims hubs fliped out on rear?

    I see what your concern is. I had already machined mine down on the other beval so thats why mine doesnt sit out . I did it before i installed them so I didnt think about it anymore after the fact. It still doesnt change the fact that at least on a rear mount its a proven system.

    Super single hemmit rims hubs fliped out on rear?

    My counter sink across the flat is .2 wide .so it is a large 1.Also if you really think about it the large tractors like my m920 are the same way in the rears . Tire than bud nut , then next tire, then big nut. They have been building trucks with the tires mounted like that for who knows how...

    Super single hemmit rims hubs fliped out on rear?

    It doesn't on mine . Mine had a countersink enough that it doesn't. Been running them for a few months that way and no problems.I'll have to read the other threads and see whats different with theres ?

    Actually I ran my bud nuts up on the studs first then mounted my rim then used the larger nuts to hold the rim on mine.

    M920/916/915 Air Conditioner

    The charge rate on the m920/m916/m915 is 15 amp 24v and 85 amp 12v I think thats were he is coming from.

    M920/916/915 Air Conditioner

    Awe NDT , I took a new 200 amp unit and had it reworked without the transformer so it internally does 70 amp 24v and 130 amp 12V . then we use a battery equilizer to balance things out . I'll take pic's of that install shortly. It probably in the long run been cheaper to do a new 12V unit .But...

    M920/916/915 Air Conditioner

    A roof top mount even though it looks really nice wasn't going to work well for me . the main reason is I live in the sticks and my M920 is so tall I'm constantly removing large tree branches with my horns and roof. I couldn't imagine what a 2 inch branch poking a hole in my new ac so I mounted...
