Finally found some lights that I really like. They fit well and are compact enough to clear the hood when tilted open. TOOLS NEEDED: 1/2" drill bit, drill, center punch, hammer, 3/4" wrench, electrical splices, 14 gauge wire, and switch of your choice. I highly recommend installing a fuse...

I will be 37 on july 3rd, 2015. I grew up on a farm and played many a day on a 1942 Caterpillar RD-38 D6. Cable blade, manual clutches. It belonged to my dad. I never got to hear it run. Later when I was a teenager, we cut the old dozer up for scrap iron. (wasn't hurting or in trouble...

Back in the day (when dinosaurs roamed the earth, and dirt was newish) Caterpillar had a gasoline powered "pony motor" that was used to start the main diesel engine. It was used in place of a electric starter motor. It had a clutch, and would hand crank or electric start, and run for several...

Don't pay $50 for a single cylinder. Think I paid like $16 per cylinder in late 2014. Try Fleetpride, or Truckpro. Don't know what you have in your neighborhood. My M923A1 uses Quickstart brand 22 ounce cylinder, Part # LP535, NSN 2910-00-646-9727. Quick Start products, 815-562-5414...

Karl, as far north as you are, it must get colder than it does in Oklahoma. If your truck still has motor oil in the trans, I would change it. The reason being is that I have read on SS that some folks have lost transmissions in extreme cold, due to the oil being too thick. Don't know if this...

Mine shifts "rough" compared to a passenger car when downshifting from 2 to 1. When I pull my 7300 lb. M1082A1 trailer, the transmission upshifts/downshifts smooth as any small car. These trucks are meant to be worked and driven with a load on them. I started a transmission thread awhile...

You could sell the h$%l of a lot of beer with that rig in redneckistan.

I know a guy that works for uship. He delivered my m1082a1 trailer from Maryland to Oklahoma. I can pm you his cell # if you like. Or you can store them at my place until you get the logistics figured out. I have a skid steer and forks to lift with and have a secure facility to store at.

Welcome from Oklahoma! Give that kid a ride.

Thanks for the video. I really enjoyed that. Someday I want to go to Little Sahara in OK and try out my M923A1. If you have more pics of the m105 with Rzr please post them as I am interested in seeing how well its fits. Did you run 20 psi in all six tires, or just the rear 4? Be sure and...

Very nice. Enjoyed looking at your picture. Would like to see it in action.

I just went outside and measured my m923a1 tailgate chain, at 18.5 inches. This was the links only, no latch or anything else in the measurement. I can count links or let my tailgate down in the morning to see if it sets level, if you wish. Maybe your chain or chains are twisted, causing...

Maybe the engineers that designed the M939's did this as a air flow restrictor in order to detune the engine for durability. ATV's and dirt bikes all have something done to the airbox that severely restricts the air flow into the carb. This is done in order to pass emissions and control...

Correct. At a big truck salvage. Buy a set of cutoff rear ends and you will have enough parts to bob 2 separate trucks. Airbags are approx. $150 each and there are different heights of airbags. One could also add an air dump valve switch in the cab, and have the ability to lower and raise...

Freightliner FLD 120 or FLD112 rear air bag suspension. I own 2 dump trucks with this suspension setup and they ride a lot different than other trucks with spring suspension. And my 2 dump trucks ride smoother than some pickups.......

Look at that hard top and winch. Don't leave it at my house too long.............

Bad batteries possibly? Unhook the batteries from the truck, charge them or load test them, check acid level. Batteries should be 12.6 or above if good. I would charge them overnight and then let them set 24 hours unhooked from anything and see what the voltage comes down to. If it's cold...

I like that deuce. very nice and clean. I se you are located in Oklahoma.

When it is delivered not running, cage the brakes and drag it but sure you can stop it with whatever you are pulling it with. They weigh around 22,500 lbs. Or get some air fittings and a small portable compressor, plumb the compressor into the truck air system, place the compressor in the...
