So I sold my M923A2 and was thinking I was out of the OD green thing for a while. Even went and bought a new side by side ATV. Then a friend offered me a Dodge Power Wagon pick-up truck. I thought it was a civi model which is pretty cool. It's a project, but ran when parked 2 years ago...you...

I took a little drive yesterday as I was backing into the drive I smelled a strange smell and noticed a small wisp of smoke come from under the hood. It quickly dissipated. I was inspecting everything to find out what might have caused it and discovered that the connections to the alternator...

I was going over everything under the hood today and noticed something missing from the power steering reservoir. I determined it was the breather that was missing. Looks like it just came unscrewed and disappeared. I ordered a replacement one and it's on the way. I'm concerned that...

I am confused on this one thing. Do you open the water drain valve on the bottom of the filter with the truck running or not? I have tried the big one with it running and nothing really came out. I tried it with the truck off and I could hear air bubbling up into the filter Again, only a...

Sunday was a really nice day here, in the low 60's and sunny. Took the M923 out for a spin. Ended up going up into the hills for a little while. "Most" of the snow was melted off and "most" roads were pretty dry. The truck was driving great. Here a pic from when things were going great...

My CTIS has been working properly. I was getting 4 flashing light errors when my tires were leaking. Got most of that fixed and it was working fine. Then it starting making a noise in the pneumatic control unit. I could hear a solenoid cycling very fast. Machine gun fast: click click click...

My truck seems to be sluggish on take off from a stop. Almost like it's trying to start off in second gear. It's definitely in first, verified by shifting the gears manually. Searching, I found mention of the torque converter staying locked up when it goes into first gear, but I didn't find...

Kind of a dumb question. I replaced the front side, front axle pinion seal. Replaced the gasket for the seal housing too. Used liberal amounts of RTV to seal everything up. I noticed today it appears to still be leaking a bit from some of the bolts that hold the seal housing to the diff...

So while working on the truck (M923A2) the other day I was running it off and on for a few hours. Shut her down then tried to restart it and it wouldn't start. Turn main power on, gauges came up. Turned start/run to run and ABS tested OK. Turn switch to start...nothing. No click or...

So I had a tire that would not air up past 30 pounds when I recovered her. I took her to Boyce and they fixed me up with new valve grommet and rim O-ring. It's holding fine. Then I get home and the other front tire starts leaking. It's flat now. I checked and I think it's the same issue. I...

So I started the truck up today to go over some things. Reset the CTIS and I'm still getting the 4 light error (leaking tire somewhere?). The truck aired up, but I noticed the secondary was having a rough time and coming up slowly. Then I noticed a strong hiss and traced it to the...

So here's my first, "What's this?" post in the 5-ton section: The little black canister on the air line to the CTIS controller. Looked through the TM's and didn't see anything. Looks like a little filter housing or almost like an air tool oiler? The little nipple at the bottom is threaded...

I just downloaded the P2P program for the 939 and spent hours just browsing all the components and diagrams, what a cool program! Anyway, I noticed there appears to be a 12 volt supply that goes to the heater low setting circuit (569A). Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks light the circuit...

New M923A2 Owner, Purchase Ordeal Kind of an oops and won a truck from GP in Utah. Can you experts look at what I won and give me your opinions on what it might need? What I should take to recover it, etc. Anything that needs extra attention before I drive it back home (175 miles). I know...

So winter basically happened within a couple days here. We went from 55F and sunny on Saturday to -20's by Wednesday. First real snow fall, and it was over a foot. My first experience with the Deuce in winter conditions. Here are my observations: She started right up. It was around 32F...

Typical buy and flip car show on CNBC. I was flipping channels and just caught the last 10 minutes and saw they were bobbing a M35A3. They didn't show the outcome on that episode. I missed the beginning. Didn't know if it was worth watching when they replay it. No, I don't have a DVR. Tech...

Need some advice on a total cooling system flush. I removed several of the small hoses and drained the coolant. Opened up the drain cock on the bottom of the radiator and drained all that. Pulled T-stat housing too. Put the hose with running water in every open hose and let the water run for...

Still chasing down leaks, weeps, and seeps. I've got what appears to be an oil leak (not fuel) from behind and near the front of the IP. I see what looks like a rubber line from the block to the bottom of the IP. Can't tell exactly where it's leaking though. Will I be able to access this...

Been reading and reading. I really like the look of the MRAP wheels and Peashooter's adapter plates. From what I've seen for sale, hardware, shipping, etc. I'm estimating about $3,000 (set of 6). Does that sound right for those that have done it? Do you guys get a spare or not? I've seen...

I went through some more of the parts that came with my truck and I have a brand new winter front! It appears to have the straps and several of the spring attachments, but none of the clips to mount it. Anyone know where I can get the installation parts and instructions? With our frigid...
