    I scored a M923a1

    Congrats these trucks drive sweet! Dump kit looks great. Would like more details on the installation. Have any pics of the wiring ect?

    My M936A2 is doing 53 in 5th gear at 2200 rpm.

    Wonderful...... I can't believe no one else here has encountered this problem. Would it be cheaper to have a shop swap motor and trans from another truck than pull out the trans and fix it?

    Any Moderator can you change this thread title to "Anyone ever have an MT654 not shifting into 5th?"

    Mislabeled my last thread.Anyone ever had a MT654 trans that wouldn't shift into 5th?

    Otherwise would shift 1-4 and reverse? Just shows no signs of shifting into 5th gear in either high or low range.

    My M936A2 is doing 53 in 5th gear at 2200 rpm.

    Yes it pushes into neutral. i tried numerous times your suggestion. I just adjusted the modulator cable, I can't make heads nor tails of the TM instructions on adjusting the modulator cable so shooting in the dark as far as that. Yeah the shifter linkage is definitely adjusted properly, starts...

    My M936A2 is doing 53 in 5th gear at 2200 rpm.

    Shifter linkage is adjusted properly, no fifth gear. What would prevent it from shifting into 5th anyone besides linkage which I just ruled out? Shifts fine into reverse, all gears except 5th.

    Good way of doing it and thinking outside the box! Congrats, never saw that method before here!

    Bottle Jack for M923A2, M925A2, ect.

    I use the ones I got from from Harbor freight, they work fine, you might have to supply your own boards, 6x6 posts whatever to get enough height.

    Is the 8.3L Turbo Cummins the " best " engine ?

    The downside is you can't buy just one.

    My M936A2 is doing 53 in 5th gear at 2200 rpm.

    Speedometer, same shifts in 1-4 as 1-5, same speed and I can tell I'm not going faster than about 50.

    Threading on the CUCV fire extinguisher bracket?

    Nope. The bracket yes, screws no.

    Anyone know what the threading is for the screws? I've tried several screws now without luck.

    My M936A2 is doing 53 in 5th gear at 2200 rpm.

    Thanks a bunch Rusty, it isn't going into 5th like I thought. Just tried that, see what you mean by the lockup now. Still no joy, though there is quite a bit of slop in the 1-5 notch where there isn't any in the others. Gonna have to have a look at the linkage and adjustment when the ground...

    My M936A2 is doing 53 in 5th gear at 2200 rpm.

    I'm not following... I count 4 shifts/decrease in RPM's from a stop in 1rst. I don't know much about transmissions. Perhaps I should post a video tomorrow. Thanks for the reply.

    So now that China has the commercial hummers, how do we get them to start selling the HMMWV's in complete form now? I almost got sick the last time I was at Camp Ripley, there were rows of HMMWV's that were going to be chopped up back from overseas.

    My M936A2 is doing 53 in 5th gear at 2200 rpm.

    Any thoughts on what the issue would be? Thought my truck wasn't shifting into 5th, but it sure is, my top speed is about 53 or so at 2200 rpm. Vehicle seems sluggish to get to speed but I'm basing that on driving other 5 tons that weigh half.
