    Considering Buying an '84 M1009

    If I was selling it, I'd be asking $5k and expecting to get $4k. If i were buying, I'd be thinking maybe $3k. I drove one as a daily driver. Expect better than 20mpg. If you get it, and want the front brush guard and pintle hitch I'll put you in contact with a buddy in phx that has them...

    Tell me more about the M813...Thinking about getting one, would like some info!

    Licensure requirements vary by state. However, the 809 series isn't going to slip through any holes that the 939 series won't. GVWR will either catch both, or neither.

    Rim/Tire identification

    I don't think these will go on your deuce. The backspacing looks wrong, and this doesn't look like the Aluminum MRAP rim bolt pattern to me. Peashooter should be able to give you a definitive answer...

    M1088A1 Blackhorse tractor

    I'm so far behind the times that I still think of the 11th ACR in terms of covering the Fulda Gap in Europe. It was news (20 year old news apparently) that it was running NTC.....

    turboed 923 A1 ?

    For your intended use (lots of miles, mostly at highway speeds, towing), the A2 with the 8.3 is the clear choice.

    M923A1 vs M923A2

    This thread didn't start as "which is better?". It started as "is this truck ok?", based on how different an A2 feels to someone who is used to driving an A1. And the answer is "yeah, that's how an A2 will feel. The truck is fine."

    Can we let cucvrus come back?

    It doesn't show that he's banned. My best guess says problems on his end ..

    M1009 No Start. (GearTeeth Grinding?) (Issue after running out of fuel/refilling)

    Check the starter bolts. I suspect you broke one and the starter is misaligned.

    My 923 keeps ''Rocking""

    In what position is the switch on the dash? The one to the left of the steering wheel, below the lights. What happens when you move it? How's idle in neutral? How smooth and how many rpms? Got air pressure? How much? What position is your park brake lever and transfer lever in? With the...

    My 923 keeps ''Rocking""

    Button on the transfer case shift lever may be stuck.... this is the kind of weirdness that will cause. Or you may have a fuel issue. Sucking air in the fuel line or a clogged filter can cause it to die when put in gear.....

    M1078 jump question

    Pull the batteries, test them and confirm they're good and fully charged and put them back... or just replace them with known-good batteries.. and see what you've got. I speculate (and it is blatant speculation) that hooking up incorrectly would be more likely to damage the equipment you're...
