So I am digging around the web tonight and I run into the following and thought I would share it w/ others. I did a search here and I could not find any info on this, and no one has ever mentioned it to me. . . ; Shutdown procedures should be closely followed on all M939’s equipped with...

When I first saw green and tan mixed I didn't like it, but it has kinda been growing on me ever since I have seen pics of what appear to be MV's in current use by the military w/ misss-matched color parts. In your case I think it would look good. Things will be symetrical... No matter...

I think I might just grab another TC chep someplace. THAT rebuild would be a big deal. Conversly, you can find a used one for $300 bux places like HERE. prob 250-350 for shipping and call it almost done except for change out. Your truck was probably ridden hard and put away wet. There...

Well my truck is up in the PNW. I will be getting another one for down here.

Hmmm, I am no mechanic but I wonder if you have frozen water in your air lines someplace. The govenor is suspect IMO. How hard is it to pull it, bring it inside and let it thaw and examine it or how old is it? How about just pick up a new one? I know throwing parts at a problem is not real...

If you are a painter and you live in the San Gabriel Valley shoot me a PM if you seek work.

I am no mechanic ...having said that If you install an air hose fitting so that you can pump air into the system w/o the engine running you have a way better chance of finding an air line leak. Additionally have you done a C.O.L.A. test? You prob have a bad air chamber diaphgram , JUST...

hey ya Geek... What city are you in? I am in Monrovia..

I might add to smell fluids as well... If things smell burnt...move on or prepare for R&R That MT654CR ( I believe ) transmission is prob running motor oil and not DEX 3 FWIW as well.

Before you cut buy some PB BLASTER, they sell it at Home Depot now. Just a lil squirt maybe once a day for a week+ or so then grab some wrenches. Give it time...That bolt is expensive! Might be hard to replace as well.!

I would speculated WAY better...

I have been told they are outstanding in all flavors of weather by a 70 year old man whom lives eats and sleeps these things. He has towed in the snow as well. Just flip the front axle swich in high range and power on. I was also told that there is no reason for chains. Personally i will not...

THANK U I will dig into this and make some cool plans THANK U!

So your saying basically that any MV truck we buy from GL after 2015 that has a diesel, and is older than 2010 model year, we have to pull the engine and put in a SMOG Legal engine? If that is the case then I see the price of MV's w/ diesels pre 2010 dropping HUGE. Of corse they can be pulled...

Here is what I was talking about, pg 369 -10 Op manual 2012; xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CAUTION Do not allow the M939 series vehicles to exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) or M939A1/A2 series vehicles to exceed 6 mph (10 km/h) when transfer case is in low and the transmission is in 1 (first)...

These manuals are so big...I saw someplace it said not to go over 5-6 MPH in 1st in low. THEN I saw a diagram of sorts and the speeds allowed in reverse in low range were BLANK, no info. I would LOVE to get it directly from a MotorPool Supertinendants mouth exactly as to what the deal is. I am...

The PS mirror will need ot be re-afixed if you are to drive it, prob missing parts. If you could determine what is there and maybe buy the rest, needed or not, you will have the bases covered for little money. I lust looked and I can not tell if it is just missing a couple 1/4" bolts and nuts...

I was told and I believe it true that if it is cold outside that you will run that truck for at least a 1/2 hour before all oils and metals come up to temperature. Additionally it takes some time for the tires to get loosened up. You will see a difference in the overall feel of a warmed up vs...

THANK U! I really appreciate it!

If you have bee here a year I would say your well on your way. I think i was here constantly for 'maybe' a month and I bought an M925A1. I planned HUGE before I picked it up. I got all kinds of tools and suvival gear in case I broke down and I hit the road, drove clear across the state of WA and...
