    Has anyone grabbed what you have and done a pictorial installation 5tonman? What is the NSN for the kit and what were they originally designed for?

    M915 A/C install

    I would second that request but I fear the some of the old guard is burned out on SS. Sure do wish some of the old timers who are flat out genius's w/ the LET's would start hangin' around SS again. Thank goodness for the search function but nothing like talkin' to the horses mouth so to speak...

    M916 5th wheel swap

    I need to put a 2" 5th wheel plate on my new M916 that came stock w/ a 3.5" plate. I "THINK" the proper corse of action is to; 1- REMOVE THE 2 REAR RAMPS 2- REMOVE THE 3.5" PLATE 3- REMOVE THE OE 5TH WHEEL LOWER ASSEMBLY 4- REMOVE THE SPACER UNDER 5TH WHEEL So now I am down to a bare frame...

    All four batteries dead... Jump Start?

    Yep, charge each battery individually overnight till your charger says it is at 100%. After you do this you will be amazed at how fast it spins and your batteries will be all charged up but good. Of corse you can use 2 chargers at once. Just pull cables. Been there done that.

    "How to get a HET in life..." - M1070 Acquisition thread

    Way to hang on and come out smilin' Brad. A GL employee told me "the government challenged the sale of these trucks" . It probably had everything to do with; Are they appropriate for civilians to use on USA public roads? I was all smiles when I received a PAID INVOICE for my M916. During...

    M923a2 parking brake lockup.

    My "help", and reply stands firm. Sarcasm, perhaps, incivility, not one ounce. Please reread the very first line...Good luck.

    M923a2 parking brake lockup.

    With all due respect; I highly recommend you get the TM's and start reading. Additionally you will learn massive amounts of info if you go to a school like DOOTSON and get a Class B CDL. You do know you need a Class B w/ Air brake endorsement to drive that truck legally right? I suspect...

    M915 / M916 A/C Question

    Well, I am trying to find out what fits and what does not fit so as not to reinvent the wheel. I can't make any decisions till I see some hard facts. I do know there is a unit where the evap unit bolts to the floor in the front and THAT would be a bad deal. If (and when) and need ot access...

    M915 / M916 A/C Question

    I got a little more info today and Thank U NDT. If anyone has more info please chime in, I sure do wish there was a forum for the M915's M916's and M920's instead of being grouped w/ the lil' 5 tonners .... ;-) (See my sig, my M916 has not been added yet!) But all kidding aside it is needed...

    M915 / M916 A/C Question

    Does anyone know exactly what tractors have A/C in them? I could swear I saw an M915 w/ A/C but I look at the TM and find nothing. In a nutshell I have an M916 and I want to put A/C in it and I seek the proper Red Dot kit part number. Was it not an M915 but an M915A1 I was looking at or...

    M923A2 with up armored cab

    As much as I would absolutely LOVE an armored beast I know that it would be impossible to keep them out of the hands of those whom would use them in felonious ways. Bank Robbers, Terriorists, and idiots then the spotlight would be on the MV hobby as a whole and THAT would lead to a LOT of stuff...

    Convert M920 to all 12v, or all 24v?

    Nope, I purposely went for the M915 (no suffix) Cummins, Cat 7155 The A1's 2'3 and 3's have all been going for over 25K. I guess for the wrap around cockpit and A/C.The Detroit engine is known for HUGE money when repairs are needed, so is my CAT 7155 but I have learned a LOT about them. I...

    Starting my 5 ton crew cab project

    How are you going to orientate the rear cab? Will you make it so all doors on one sides open the same or will try the rear cab around and make suicide type of doors AND keep the open able windows at the rear with rear wipers too! Gawd that would be so cool! I have looked at this job a friend...
