    Topeka 915a1 pickup today...

    my 919 dosent have lockers either. The m916a1 and newer sure are appealing with lockers, but I dont understand why they went 4spd instead of 5 or more. Its weird that the 916a1 has 12 less gears than the 916 but I guess the 2sp transfer case makes up for that a little. I thought if the tranny...

    Topeka 915a1 pickup today...

    My intermediate axle is newer than the back one. It is black instead of green and looks like it was recently replaced. When I was changing tires yesterday I was able to turn the wheel on one side while the other was on the ground so I dont think it has a locker in it. Im guessing the replaced...

    Latest 915A1 Unusual features

    I was just horsing around with my post, I bought the trailer pictured behind the truck in SD and pulled the singles off of it to put on the m915a1 I just got in Topeka. They are rated 9570lbs as singles and a little taller than the 11r22.5 tires the truck came with so I can go a little faster...

    920 fithwheel questions

    Im not sure of the kingpin size difference between the m920 and conventional fithwheels. I was wondering if there is enough size difference to make a split, bolt on shell that would bolt over a standard kingpin to make it the right size for the m920 fithwheel? I thought it would be nice to...

    alternator for 915-920

    My neighbor just picked up a Deuce from Ft Leonard wood Mo and the front driveshaft that was pictured in the sale photos(in the cab) is gone. I figured maybe the sprag was not adjusted properly so they removed the shaft. Anyway does he have any recourse with GL for something that was taken...

    m915a1 top speed

    Youre going to like them for harvest. The only problem might be parking with a full load in the field. If the ground is a little soft and you sink in some you might have to back up before you can go forward. The first gear is not as low as reverse and sometimes the engine cant rev enough to...
