Solenoid Yeah mine to brother. We had been in the Home Depot parking lot for a couple hours when I found this thread. After just dealing with the issue a few times, I realized my solenoid wasn't bad, I had a kink in the wire that my linkeage slides on and it was just binding a bit! That...

Moving from Alabama to Oregon...YOU JUST SAVED THE DAY!!!!

rickf, First of all, I typically have thick skin, but I will clerify a few things, since I don't believe you read the whole thread before commenting; 1) I have not found any M925A2s with recent rebuilds for $4000. I would love to know your source. 2) I believe I have been set straight on a few...

Registration and Insurance I should be getting my Arizona title from Gov Liquidation next week. I intend on registering and insuring the truck as an RV. I am posting this in a public forum because AFAIK it is completely legal/ethical. I have read of many racers doing it with their semis. I am...

Yes, I have reevaluated my CRMW, and decided doubles would not be a good way ahead. Thank you all for keeping me on azimuth. I had considered applying for long load permits and just running a single longer, (longer than 28' pup), trailer, but that won't work either. Oregon does not seem to...

Tongue mod I sure would like to just weld a tongue and lunnette on the front pup to just drop it on my pintle.

Plan on putting car in back of 925. Do you think this will be enough weight? This truck already weighs 24K empty. Not sure about air demand, but it seems to run 53s from sand to highway PSI reasonably quick. Anyone else have thoughts on this? Also assumed two pups on dollies would be okay...

I like all my junk too much to sell it. Thats why I need so many cubes to move!

Double post.

Dollars and cents! ALCON, Just a quick session of beer math for anyone else looking at this option int he future. M925A2 $7908.00 Con Gear, (Dolly) $1150.00 each 28' Pup trailer $2500.00 each Fuel at 4.5 MPG $2120.00 Empty Fuel at 3.75 MPG...

Wreckerman893, I have never pulled doubles before, or anything with an MV before. Can you please explain situations where I owuld wnat a hand valve? Regarding the current valve on the dash, if I understand correctly, this is only to spring-overide the air brakes in low air situations where...

agazza, With the super singles, there is just no way to put a civilian dry van on top of my frame. Had to scratch that idea and re-explore dollies. May look at running doubles since I will be effectively giving up the ability to back up with a single pup on a dolly anyways.

wreckerman, Thanks for the detailed report. So it looks like I will be limited to a 37' max trailer length IOT stay under a 75' total length. That is unfortunate, because it is hard to find anything around that length. I may have to get a storage unit on Fort Benning and come back for it...

Well spent some time today with a tape measure. There is really no good/safe way to put a civilian dry van trailer on top of my truck. It will be way too tall no matter how I look at it. The trailer will also scrub on the back of my truck. Have to look at the pull behind option more thoroughly...

Concur!! I agree, however I just got the word last Wednesday, and I will be SPing on SEP 4th en route for Oregon. The timeline is getting tighter by the day. I am running out of options. I don't want to give my M925 away.
