I am getting to install some new gauges and wiper control to my 5 ton. I have removed all of the outside screws and bolts but still can't get the dash off. It seems there are some bolts underneath the dash near the dog house but I can't find them. I have looked at the TMs but can't find anything...

Nice project

I had the same question when I installed my soft top on my M923. I recently bought some bulk 1/4 inch bungee cord to put through the loop and attach to each side inside the cab. I have not done that yet because of weather but plan to in the near future. I think this will help keep out some of...

Welcome to the MV world. Just missed our yearly rally at Ft Hood. Look for it next year. It was the 7th rally. Look on the web for historic mounted warrior rally. Lot of good pics from the past. So far I am the only big boy (923a1) but there are a couple of duces. and a lot of jeeps.

Zout - I do say the truck looks really good. Being a FNG at painting I have a few questions about what you are doing: how much do you thin the paint? Do you use any conditioner? Assuming you are using a HVLP sprayer what pressures are you using?

I am a member of the board for Van Zant County Veterans Memorial and would like to invite any of you MV owners to join us when we have events honoring our veterans. We have, or sponsor, several events throughout the year at our location in Canton, Texas. Canton is about an hour and a half east...

For those of us that have the M923 5ton's I have a color that matches the MARPAT Green. I used it this weekend to paint some ramps I made. I also used it on the inside of the rear tailgate. It matches my paint color perfect. Here is the Home Depot recipe: BEHR Base 4300 CLANT AXE BL...

Another thing to check is the valve stem. I had 2 that had cracks in them. It looked like they had rubbed against the rim.

LOWES carries the rustoleum camo paint for about $5.00 a can - black, deep forest green , tan and forest green

There is usually a warning plate mounted to the inside of the driver side door that says it has lockers.

These trucks come with a Detroit Locker in each axle. When not in 6 wheel drive they will allow a turn to be made using pins and springs which allow the locker to expand and slip. When going streight or in low 6 wheel drive they are locked up. I have the same thing in my jeep. They are great and...

I stand corrected it is a 1981 - fat fingers:cookoo:

Just an example - There is one for sale here (Van Texas) for 7,000.00 including a trailer. It is a 1971 M923-a1 with singles. It is tan and looks in pretty good shape. Last year the same guy had a 1987 with 190miles since a rebuild and wanted 9,000.00.

Anyone have the FM 9-43-2 Recovery and Battlefield Damage and Assessment and Repair? I looked for it in the TM section and couldn't find it. If you have it can it be put on the forum so we can use it?

I have a M923-A1 and am trying to replace the hoses that go from the wiper motor to the wiper switch. I did replace the driver side hoses but what a PITA. Now I have an air leak in one of the hoses for the passenger side. I have the switch loose but can't get enough free play to be able to...

Hello neighbor. I live about 14 miles from Tyler and bought a M923-a1 back in May. I've had loads of fun with it and found the SS sight to be full of good people and tons of information. There is a MV club in Tyler (forgot the name) that goes to all of the parades around here. They are going to...

Thanks for the replies. I'll try the washer fluid first and see if it helps. I can tell that one of the tires has set for awhile and has a flat spot on it. I think that may be part of my problem. Since I've owned it I've had 2 tires come apart. The ones I replaced them with do seem to ride...

I recently bought a M923a1 with the big (14x20 - Goodyear super singles - offroad tires). So far I'm not pleased with the ride. I think most of my trips are going to be on pavement. It drives nice in the dirt but on the road anything over 45mph gets kind of bumpy. After having several big 4x4"s...

If you are still having trouble with your title call this lady: Tuesdee Knight 903-887-2285. All I had was a sales recpt. Paid her 325.00 and got a clear Texas Title. She will send you a packet of documents and clear instructions. Took about 4 weeks to get it done.
