    Combat wheels, FMTV wheels, HEMTT wheels

    I know this is old but I am putting 16's on HEMTT rims on my M923. I's rather not change wheel studs up front and I hear the lug nut will be shy of full thread contact. Thimbles? Is that whats on the rear wheels of the M923A0?

    M923 MWO Identification

    What does RRAD LSMC stand for and what is their website. Red River Arsenal Depo? Appreciate the info. I searched but Google didn't bring up what it stood for and I have kind of given up on the SS advanced search. Thanks in advance. Went to their site: RED RIVER ARMY DEPO and just a guess for...

    M923 MWO Identification

    How do I go about getting a hold of RRAD? My truck is a M925AO and has a "overhauled at RRAD LSMC" plate dated 09/08 on the drivers side. The speedo says 35,000 and would like to know what they did. On the same plate is a list of MWO's applied: 55 1; 20 2; 20 5 Pre App; 20 6 Pre App. Under that...

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    So you recommend 300 when it's 100-115 out? Is that why it's cycling and when it's hotter pressures go up? The chart I found is as follows: 80degrees L40-50 H175-210; 85 45-55 225-250; 90 45-55 250-270; 95 50-55 275-300; 100 50-55 315-325 and 105 50-55 340-345. Off topic but those dryer's...

    OK went out there with the new gauges I picked up from "VRMorrison". Thanks by the way for the great deal on the vac pump and gauges! Anyhow apparently my super duper ORielly gauges weren't working on high side as I never saw anything over 150psi the new set reads up twice as high where the...

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    I ran main power from the batts. The switch power is taped into a plug under the dash which may be the heater blower power. That's what red dot recommended in the HMMVW install. My alternator is stock as far as I know. I first charged up with 4 cans (12oz) but the condensor fan kept going...

    I'll have to check. I vacced it down to 29 I beleive. I figured I'd drive it a bit and recheck. My gauges are a proffesional set but I noticed as I charged the pressure would go down when the fans went on. Hook up the gauges on Sat and see what happens. Have a great 4th!!

    M923A2 Torsion/Torque Rod Assembly With Ends-Rubber seperated.

    Thanks for the search tips. Still doesn't work well for me. As for as the dogbones go the guy I was buying it from bailed when somebody offered him $500 more and said they would take it as is. That's what I was doing but add in $1200 to get it trailered from CA to AZ put it out of the price...

    M923 Spring brake overide

    THANKYOU!!! That explanation will be appreciated by a whole lot of folks that may not be wise in the way of the M923 trucks! This all by itself should be a sticky. Thanks again.

    M923 Spring brake overide

    Still didn't tell me anything. When the over ride is activated you have the equivalent of your parking brake? The reason I'd like to know is I picked up a M923 the other day and after going down the road a couple of miles I noticed the knob for the spring brake was activated and the light on...

    M923 air conditioning a/c install project

    Personally I prefer the idea of a remote condenser. Here in AZ it gets hot. Guys from here in Iraq say we are within a degree or so some months! So anything that doesn't hinder my rad is a go here. Plus running the engine fan (forcing) when it doesn't need to isn't good either. Some guys have...

    M923A2 Kenway Bracket I stand corrected on the price of the A2 brackets. Just talked to Ray (The guy who designed the brackets) at Kenway and he said the military has a pulley setup on the A2's that required an extra pulley on their part. It sounded like the pulley is different than a non...
