Sorry to here about Matt, he built and delivered by custom 5 ton to me. Praying for his wife and family

Thank you

How would I test the starting solenoid amps and what we be the normal

Thanks, I’ll go look for it. I never thought about looking for one and I’ve had the truck for 5 years

M923A2 does not have a manual shut-off in the cab. Did you add a manual one to your truck?

I am now going on the third replacement solenoid, they are only lasting about 6 months. They are for 8.3 Cummins made in China. I have used different vendors each time. What has been your experience with these solenoids?

Thank you, I am just planning for tire replacement. The Michelin XZL’s are getting weather checked

Has anyone gone from two piece wheels to single wheels for 16R20 tires? On Boyce’s website they manufacture single piece wheels for a 5 ton. The reason I asked is no one around DFW will change the 16R20’s on my 2 piece rims.

Thanks Simp5782. I just completed new alternator installation using the hot and ground off the harness. I think abandoning these two alternator leads and installing direct new ones as suggested.

Try Tireject. It takes at least 20+oz. it sure worked on my two 16x20 tires. However, mine took several days to go flat. I suspect mine either had a bead leak or O ring link

I couldn't get a good picture, but I have attached one showing the wires coming from across the radiator shown taped. From you description the wiring harness should connect to the alternator and starter. If I had new alternator wires, two wires would be attached to to each terminal? One...

Thank you. I will investigate further and try to get a decent picture .

Thank you, but I was referring to a large bundle of wires splitting off under the truck going in front of the truck that I assume go to lighting, etc. I have already disabled the two wires you mentioned. I was surprised to find this bundle of wires tied into the alternator positive and...

Sorry, M923A2

After installing a new civilian alternator the cables from the starter need to be replaced because they are too short. It appears to me that power wires going to the driver's side are spliced into these two cables. Can someone tell me if this is true and how do I lengthen the alternator...

I register my M923A2 with regular plates. The inspection checks lights, turn signals, back up lights, windshield wipers, etc. The DOT part inspects the air lines, brake liners, engine hoses. They then test drive using the brakes till the air is gone and wait for it to build up. It’s not to...

Your PM box is full, so I apologize for sending my message to you here: 74M35A2, I know you said you were no longer putting together the kits with the cheap alternators. However, I am not looking for a cheap solution here. Ask you could tell from my pictures, the Red Dot A/C installer welded...

Here is a picture at the front of the alternator. I can take a picture higher up if that would help.

Is there any solution other than a long spacer to convert my alternator over to a civi one? The A/C installer decided to weld their bracket to the alternator bracket. The A/C compressor is from Red Dot so I am not sure of it's brand or bracket. A picture is attached. Thanks for any help you...
