    Sussex NJ MV Show

    My oil is full and clean also. I installed RR's recommended filter/regulator/oiler and it definitley shifts nicer. My truck doesnt make much noise at highway speeds , actually I cant believe how nice and smooth it is at 55-60 (on the speedo). I ordered a low height sliding 5th wheel and im going...

    m916 m920 jake brake 7155 cat trans whine

    I just bought my first M916... With a cat 7155 trans. Nice truck. I'm going to use it under a lowboy and a dump trailer. But first i have to work out some bugs. The wires from the jake brake pedal run into the 7155 trans. Can I bypass that (wire it like a civvy manual trans truck) or is it...

    1000 miles in a 923 -Flying in...advice?

    You might be able to ship it cheaper...BUT...It's a once in a lifetime experience, enjoy yourself. Thats what this is all about. I ordered a new kenworth 6 years ago, went to the factory ,watched it get built and drove it home from the factory...that memory will always be there.

    Stryker's, M923a1.

    I wouldnt be too concerned about the click....trucks do that once in a while. If it becomes a normal thing where it'll click over and over then start I'd address it. chances are the rebuilt starter wont be perfect. It could also be your control box..they"ll give you a click sometimes too. I...

    Anyone running a front locker?

    The biggest problem with a locker in the front is when both tires are spinning you slide sideways, with locking hubs you can unlock one side and get thru an off camber situation. I've had lockers in the front of jeeps,Light trucks and heavy trucks for 25 years and in a straight flat...

    m923 transfercase help

    Check your air lines make sure they are going to the right places...5 out of 7 trucks i got were plumbed wrong. Bypass the valve that engages the front axle when you put the t-case in low range. That valve just puts more bind on the driveline when you want to shift out of low.

    pics of m923 with oversize super singles?

    16.00's are rated 55mph at full rated load. 14000+ lbs per tire, on a m923/925 you've got less than 3700 lbs on each tire (average). Ive driven my M932 over an hour at 65-75 with NO shaking or wobbling and my michelin XZL 16.00's were barely warm to the touch.

    M916 Replacement Transmissions

    I saw that truck last week, its definitley a road ranger and thats definitley a clutch pedal. I cant tell if they left it 6x6 though. I'd bet its an air actuated clutch set-up.
