I think I might just grab another TC chep someplace. THAT rebuild would be a big deal. Conversly, you can find a used one for $300 bux places like HERE. prob 250-350 for shipping and call it almost done except for change out. Your truck was probably ridden hard and put away wet. There...

SWEET! Jaun how do you ID lockers and what is their story?

Here are some files you can look at and absorb RE Self Recovery, and sometimes w/o a winch... Some really creative thinking here... RECOVERY OPS 1962 RECOVERY OPS 19XX?

Take pics!

Have you made an air hose yet so you can connect it to the right rear and air your tires back up after you lower the air to go in the sand? It will go at 70 PSI but if you start to get stuck air down a ton on all 6 corners and she'll walk right out... What did the manual say for sand, 25PSI? I...

-10/2012 TM says on page 374 CAUTION If vehicle gets stuck on ice or in snow, do not rock vehicle by shifting rapidly between reverse and forward gears. This can cause power train damage. end -10/2012 TM says on page 70 IT ACTUALLY SAYS NOTHING FOR SAFE SPEEDS IN REVERSE IN LOW RANGE...

GREAT tip on the front axle switch Mark! I know w/ my supercab I like to drop it into low range w/o locking in the hubs when I back trailers up my driveway...could work same concept w/ the 5tons... I will have to look into how to do that mod...

yep your gonna love it...THE SCHOOL! :grd: ...and driving the beasts is a blast as well. When it is all done i guarantee you, you will say "I AM GLAD I DID THAT". Do not go fast in 1st gear low range! I think there is a big warning someplace about going more than 5-6mph in 1st gear low range...

Here are some more links to files. Operators Manual I am pretty sure this is the manual that would have come w/ the truck stock. It would have been in a Cotton Duck Olice Drab holder then all went in the storage box behind the companion seat. 2012 Hand Receipt BII This has lists of parts that...

Before I hopped in the drivers seat for the first time and old pro told me; "Those brakes will put your head into the windshield, be careful.." ...to wit I have been. Indeed, IMO they are "sensative", but, after you drive it for a while you get the hang of them and you will be fine (so long as...

My pleasure Jeff. I hope SS staff see this stuff and verify the content and post for all in the TM area. I am being VERY 'particular' if you will choosing what files I like, I am trying to ONLY get my poop from the governemt so as to try to insure the files are not adulterated in any way shape...

Farmall I would love to see some pics of what your up too. The way you did the tem air deal would be cool to see too.

Here is some more manual(s) fun. I hope these manuals are looked at by folks here that are old pro's and that they are verified the latest and greatest and uploaded to the TM section here at SS. So far all the TM's and Parts n Tools files I have found I believe are all 2012 flavor... Sure do...

I am a noob too remember but from what I see alls a guy has to do is take a data plate from truck "A" and rivet it to truck "B" and viola! You just bred a new truck... It may have started life as an M925 then got it's winch boosted ... I dunno...hard to say. Sure seems wierd...

Farmall, I eff'd up and gave you 800 series files back in post #47...I think there VERY close but you should delete the files I sent you back in post #47 and take a look at these files me think's... I think these are the 5 files JuanPrado speaks of... The DL's are HUGE, click and take a...

I do believe you speak of the "Air Pressure Govenor" . 90 and 120 sounds about right to me. Do the COLA test Farmall. You gotta learn that bro. It is hard to deal w/ all this w/o having someone teach you the theory as you go. I mean you can watch this video but I do not think one time the...

Farmall I have been trying, hard, to make heads and tails of the myraid of manuals available for the M939 Series of trucks we own. I am trying to find a way to get a definative list of TM's we want, that are the MOST recent printings and that are pertenant to only the M939 Series trucks we...

GAWD I hate being a noob! How elegantly simplistic! THANK U. I have no issues but that is a good tip to remember! Farmall this trick would be the first thing I would do...GAWD that could make it so easier to find leaks. I might throw on a valve so I could pressurize it and throw the valve off...

32,175 pounds is the GVW of an m923a1 yes? the GCVW is I think 47175 !!! HUGE! The truck weighs 22,175 empty and a 10K payload = GVW right? So w/ your analogy your saying as long as you do not actually weigh more than 26000 your ok right? Ummmm, I don't think so. If that were true every...

C.O.L.A. You HAVE to learn what this means. It is a HUGE responsibility driving these rigs and the reasoning for getting a CDL is to make SURE you know how to TEST air brakes, amongst other things. When you take the test at the Licensing Department, here in California, it is the one part of the...
