    Pineville LA Help needed

    I just purchased an M920, anyone around that area to check if she is a runner or not? Also might need some help with delivery to a rail head or pickup from AEX airport if I have to drive it. Anything helps. Eldgen 509.270.1998

    Overkill Customs

    thanks guys, I have most of the Mods figured out or have done them in the past on different rigs. The crew cab would be new to me. I have done sheet metal work in the past and to do this I would need some new tools (awe darn) but I have some conflicting info. One page I read said that the...

    M35 tractor verses M818

    I agree with wreckerman completely, you can pick up the 915's cheaper than most 818's right now, can't beat the power train. my .02

    Looking at an M813 Tomorrow, any quirks I should look for?

    fuel leaks, make sure the fuel shutoff is in the forward position, other than that pretty straight forward.

    Overkill Customs

    I have acquired a M920 as a business recovery/representation of my work. This is a photoshop of my idea. I used Floridianson's picture of his truck as a starting point(hope you don't mind). I have no use for this as a tractor and with a 55k combined rear axles I don't need even close to that...

    Reasons to NOT get a M916?

    Hey Hammer, I am going to pull the trigger here in the next week or two and heading back east, do you think we could put two on a trailer to have hauled back or at least roadtrip back together in case one of us breaks down? Eldgen 509-270-1998

    Used M923 to drag trees... wow.

    is that 7 speed and cat from a lmtv variant? where did you get the transmission computer? or did it come with the donor vehicle etc? I know those trucks have an integrated transfer set up as well.

    feel free to kick me out if you wish ...

    I see hemtt T-cases on GL all the time, if they can handle the stress of the 8v92 and 8 wheel drive you should be golden.

    Idle Climbing

    Yeah it is just a little strange, I have over 100 miles on the truck since the changes that I made so I would thing that all of the air would be out of the system by now, I am sure it is something specific that someone on here will shed light on.

    Idle Climbing

    Hi Guys, I have an 818 with the 250 and I am having an idle problem, after searching I have replaced all the fuel lines, removed a fuel tank and selector valve and replaced all the fuel filters. Here is my problem, when the truck is cold it idles perfectly at 700 rpm, once the truck warms up...

    9 series hood clearence

    correct, I have access the the whole truck for dissasembly so getting a cross member or something mount wise would not be a problem, the engine is a secondary concern, the truck I am getting them from is detailed just beautifully and I would like to have the cab and clip on my truck. However I...

    9 series hood clearence

    Hi all, thanks for the responses, I guess I should elaborate. I have access to a 900 series front clip, cab, etc. I know that the 9 series are upgraded 8 series so it should not be too big a deal to swap them around. I also prefer the 9 series look to the 8 series, my big questions are does the...

    9 series hood clearence

    I have a 818 and want to put a cummins 350 in it. Does the 900 series hood offer more engine clearance than my truck? is it a difficult swap onto my truck or is it not worthwhile? cab is the same if I remember correctly, any info would be appreciated if you can share your ideas. Thanks in...

    Crew cab M35 taking a dump on air

    is there any way you can submit a diagram of your air circuit for the bags? I am in the process of doing something similar to my 5 ton and am inexperienced in the valving etc. Do you just have a valve stem to fill them manually or do you have something fancier? I was contemplating using a...
