Having just bought a 923a2 and previously having a 813 W/W, both trucks have their benefits and disadvantages. I try not to shovel much of anything out of the bed of my truck but sometimes you need too. I dont need a dump truck for what I do, so I stuck with another cargo truck and will put a...

You better be there!

I will definitely be there. Just got Friday the 21st off at work. Ill be arriving RC Friday afternoon and staying over Friday and Saturday night. Hopefully the weather cooperates and we can have a nice bonfire Saturday night after a fun day! See every one there!

I will be there on Saturday. Have a few items for sale. 1 - MEP003a - Good running unit, not in the best cosmetic shape. 630hrs New fuel tank, new throttle cable, new fuel return lines, oil change and all 3 new fuel filters - 1600 2 - M105A3 trailer - very nice condition trailer. Has NYS...

I could make the weekend of Oct 21 & 22.

Popped a dog bone. Happens to the best of us. Penetrating oil, heat and a pneumatic air chisel will be your best friends. Also most likely the other 7 are in the same shape. Check them all.

Thanks for the replies. Im going to investigate a local truck shop and a large steel supplier to see if they have something available.

Hey Guys, Has any one extended the stock double frame on rear end of their truck? Ive been working on my dump hoist install on the 813. Ive been looking over at some previous builds and would like to extend the original double frame that ends over the rear tandem so that continues to the end...

Im interested in hearing the details on the ISL. Ive heard they are good motors. 400hp and 1200ft is a nice upgrade from the stock CTA. Is your motor a common rail? Any ideas on the wiring and set up on the swap?

From what Ive read, most twin counter sunk manuals are similar size to the allison. I know the allison is a big trans to begin with. I would think the easiet way is to mount up the manual trans to the motor and adjust the transfer case location. Then get some custom drive shafts made with...

Man that is a nice class of license to have available. NYS is awful. There is something similar but its for farm/ag use only. Nothing better than having options!

Who's going to be the first to throw a 10 speed in a 5 ton and document it? I found a cheap roadranger but have way too many projects as it is. One day....

I am not sure of the weight capacity of the front springs, but I would gather it could be calculated with knowing the particular trucks GVW and GVWR. One point I would like to mention is 25k to 30k pounds on a single axle is a lot. I am not sure what on highway tires would be able to handle...

Good luck with the house Chris. I am out for this one. Have the bed off and the back of the truck disassembled for the dump hoist install. Will definitely be at the fall rally

I do not know of any military or surplus junk yards on Long Island or anywhere near by. There are a few truck junk yards that might has something in the back. I suggest the following: D&D Used truck parts in bellport Susquehanna truck parts in lindenhurst Ive been to D&D before. Not a bad...

I will be following this thread. Definitely a project I am interested in. I love my 813 but wouldnt mind a 931 in the future. The automatic kills it for me tho. Hopefully after a few measurements and drive train adjustments, it will be an easy install of a 9 or 10 speed. Good luck! Take...

Great idea. Thank you!

Hey Guys, Just wondering if anyone has some experience or tips for registering a trailer bought from govplanet? I have the SF-97 in my name and have the DMV paper work. I feel like the DMV will give me a problem with not having an actual bill of sale since its combined with the title on the...

Looks like a cool event. Its a little far for me or I would be interested. Ill keep an eye out if you have an event in the Northeast.
