So I have a M923 and a M116A2 trailer i need to register and get plates for. Do I have to go to springfiled to get them the titles? or can this be done through the mail? Thanks in advance

Well I heard from GL and I have to fill out a manual form for a SF-97. I'm filling it out and have a couple questions for ya'll. What would the body style of the trailer be? The auction lists the weight at 2000 lbs. The Data plate lists the empty weight at 780 and loaded at 2860. So would 2860...

GOt her home yesterday afternoon. The drive took just shy of 6 hours. And was rather uneventful thank goodness. Had to air up all the tires and add a little oil. but that was it.

The beast is home! Drove it back this morning. Drive right at 60 the whole way. Had to air up all of the tires. No problems whatsoever. Thanks to all and the forum for providing a great resource. Special thanks to pad_cdr for looking the truck over for me. And here she is.

awesome! Thanks man.

Post up how the recovery goes if you have time.

Howdy, This friday Oct 5th at 9am I will be making a recovery on a M923 truck from Johnston. I'm hoping to drive it home to Dekalb, IL. Just curious if there are any members in the area that may be able to offer assistance if something goes wrong? This is my first five ton so a lot of this is...

Got a pickup date This friday the 5th. planning on driving it home. Hopefully all goes well

You get the 1984?

I'm definitely leaning towards driving it home. It's most likely the cheapest option. I've just never driven anything this large before.

Howdy, Won a M923 that is located at Johnston, IA. Does anyone have a transport company that they recommend that could transport this truck. Or any members in the area that could help me get it road worthy? Thanks in advance BRandon

It wasn't same day but close. I'll try waiting a couple more days then give it another shot. Thanks
