After working with a local upholsterer I think I came up with a design that gives the old girl the custom look. I took two pictures of it, I realize it’s not original but thought I would share my humorous side which has been difficult to show in the last year.
I apologize if I have posted wrong but I couldn't find anywhere that this would fit. I really need your expertise, in the picture attached are two items that were recently given to me, one appears to be a ground electrode of some kind and the cardboard contains another one identical. The secon...
After close examination of my cooling system and allot of reading the manual, I had pulled my water pump and changed my thermostat due to having no pressure in my cooling system. Exhausted all possibilities I did what should have been done first, I inspected my radiator cap and discovered three...
My throttle cable is start to slip and it needs to be replaced but when you go looking it shows the one for my m923a2 is actually used on a m809 did they use them in the later models ?
I drained my coolant today and only recovered 1 and a 1/4 buckets of coolant which is allot less than the 47 quarts that it stated. The antifreeze looked reasonably clean as well as there was not any sludge built up when I opened the drain on the radiator. I would really appreciate any feedback...
I hope this is the correct place for this question, I have an opportunity to purchase an m104 trailer. Is the M104 trailer a good match to pull behind my m923a2 is from the Canadian forces and is in perfect shape it's the one made by manac. Is the plug in from the trailer to the truck wired to...
My Windshield washer reservoir has totally messed up on me I have tried several times to fix it and with no luck. So I am asking my awesome American neighbors to the south if I would be able to wire a 12 volt pump and forget the air driven one. The final straw was when I received a quote of...
I did my best to try and find this topic, so I apologize if this has been covered somewhere. I have relied on you folks for many solutions to working on my truck so here it goes. My dash lights and gauges are terrible and I have seen alternatives but I have no idea how or where to start. I have...
I hope that I'm not breaking any rules here but it was suggested by some that I should give this its own post so here it goes. I purchased my M923A2 from Fort Drum approx, 4 years ago. Never before have I enjoyed something so much as maintaining and driving and feeling like I own a little bit of...
Not sure if this is a good or bad thing, but here it goes. I recently decided to upgrade the battery's in my M923A2 because like some others i foolishly left my battery switch on for a few weeks and totally killed my 4 battery's that were the norm. I changed the 4 battery system over to a 2...
First thing I hope this is posted correctly, what I was going to ask all you inventors here. What have been some of the ideas floated around about upgrading the washer container or the entire system I would say there must be some better ideas than this.
I was wondering if anyone knows where a person could find replacement labels for the various places on my truck. I tried several different types of searches on this site but with no success .....anyone ?
Ex. The sticker for the air filter housing
I hope this is not a repeat but I tried searching for any info on a possible conversion kit. Changes the huge filter in front of the drivers cab behind the front tire to a screw on convenient filter. I cannot seem to find anything on the 6CTA8.3 cummins. Can anyone steer this confused Canuck in...
I have been looking at all the submissions for installing the keyed battery switch and I can't seem to find the one picture I'm looking for. It is the picture of how the cables are terminated at the opposite end to the switch. I was hoping to find it so either I some how missed it or it doesn't...
Well there will be pictures soon but right now I just wanted to start a conversation rolling with my first step in having a custom slide in built for my M923A2. Some of the things I'm excited about is its being built to my standards which means very very sturdy and designed to match the look of...
After trying to purchase a "Control box for my M923A2 12450333" as a spare I have discovered they won't ship to Canada because there is an export Ban on them As well as a "Fail safe alarm monitor 11669142" any suggestions.
Good afternoon since I have joined this forum I have started to really open my eyes to the potential my truck has. I am now thinking of designing a slide in camperized living quarters that when its not in use can be slid out and stored safely. Having said that could I get some of your ideas out...
This is an attempt to post pictures of my road trip,these were from when I left calgary to when I got to the ferry terminalthen safely home never to see cold again
Hello all I have searched and read as much as possible on this next question now I would like to hear opinions and if you can maybe mention brands. I was curious about our Ultra low sulphur Diesel up here in Canuckistan and was thinking that possibly diesel conditioner may be a good idea for...
Today I am beginning a very long drive that I have waited a long time for. I am finally going to be going home with my M923A2 I haven't owned her for long. I am hoping this goes well I have several mountain ranges to drive through but I am going to give it my best shot. I have read allot of the...
