    parts cross reference

    I have a 1983 M923A1 5 Ton Is there somewhere out there a parts cross reference chart or in other words a CHEAT SHEET on Wheel Bearing, Race Set and U-Joints and other parts associated with these vehicles? I’m sure there has to be something like that from the manufacturers like Moog and Timken...

    (2) Knuckle Rubber Boot Replacements

    OK.... I was looking to change out the (2) knuckle rubber boots so when removing the rock guard from the passenger side oil started coming out of the bolt hole as you can see in the picture. About 1.5 quarts. I thought when I filled the dog bowl with gear lube I had the right amount in there and...

    Tool Fabrication

    Due to the excessive amount of heat that we have been having here lately it tends to want to expand the fuel tank. On top of that having the diamond plate the way it is positioned makes it's a BITCH to get your hands in there to grip it and then to unscrew it. So I fabricated my Helper-Guy ...

    Haldex AIR DRYER

    I was hoping I could get a little help from the Bullpen! I've been trying to locate a NEW Haldex Air Dryer DA33110X. I've been calling the local truck part stores and they either don't carry it or can't get it etc.. So if anybody out there can give me a link to a vendor that does have it it...

    Battery Kill switch

    On my M923A1 I want to install a kill switch. Any suggestions on a GOOD product for this use would be very helpful and one that can handle a surge. As far as running the cables from the switch I was thinking of using 2/0 AWG Yes-No? I believe using a 2 post kill switch that would go to the...

    Hood Gas Shocks

    Once again I thought I would share this upgrade project which was necessary for me. This made a big difference when opening the hood. Each gas shock is rated at 60# the price was about $27 +- per shock less the mounting hardware at each end. For those that MAY need a little help from the Bullpen...

    5 ton knuckle rubber boot w/zipper

    A lot of these places that sell these boots don't say where they made. Do you have any info on any vendors that sell U.S.A. made that will actually last more than two months. Thanks CES 3245th

    5 ton knuckle rubber boot w/zipper

    I realize that this has probably been beaten to death but I’ll ask anyways. I have read multiple bad experiences on this site with the 5 ton knuckle rubber boot w/zipper replacement! Unfortunately I need to change my out. BUT I don’t want to buy one and then have to change it two months down the...

    Shock replacement, M923A1 driver's seat

    You're absolutely right there is no good way doing this and I did end up taking the whole seat out of the vehicle much easier to replace the shock.

    Oil Pan Add On

    SLOrazorsedge I totally agree with you! This was definitely a good investment and upgrade for me I'm totally pleased with it and especially making the diamond plate removable. Because removing that oil filter with that plate being there would definitely be like a monkey @#$%^&#$%&* football! The...

    Oil Pan Add On

    I thought I would take this opportunity to share a couple of upgrades that I did that you might find useful. I changed my oil a couple of days ago using this new device that I had installed from the last time of draining my oil. Using this EZ oil valve drain w/ 90° elbow worked awesome! I also...

    24V MILITARY VEHICLE FLASHER w/10 pins

    I could use a little help on this, what am I missing here? I bought a new vehicle flasher LED compatible. Of Course I didn't pull off the old one before I ordered the new one and of course I assumed it was the same,wrong! The new one has (3) pins and the old one has (10) pins. I have attached...
