Fellas,
I've been searching for the last 3 hours and am hoping someone can share the part numbers for a 24si alternator and pulley that will work on my M923 with an NHC250. I can take it from there on getting it installed. I see lots of threads on the conversion but no part numbers. I've read...
Forum,
I have the following battery setup on my M923:
and am upgrading from this stock 60 amp alternator:
to this alternator that is 260 amps at 28v and 140 amps at 14v:
The reason being is that I have added an A/C kit for a M915A2 that is 14/28v, an Eyecon light system, and other...
I'm posting this in case someones igniter goes out (like mine). The igniter assembly is hard to find and the one I found was ridiculously expensive.
Igniter assembly consists of:
• Capacitor 97F9002
• Filter Shaffner FN660-1-07 but FN660-1-06 will work with new wire leads
•...
I'm looking for opinions and/or experiences of any 5 tons being towed (with the medium tow bar) with the tow brackets on the bottom of the bumper instead of the top. I have brackets on the top and bottom of my 5 ton front bumper and want to remove the top ones to mount something. I searched...
I've entered my M923 and (maybe) M38A1 in a car show in a few weeks. I want to piggyback the M38A1 in the bed of the 5 ton. Any chance I'll stretch or wave the sheet steel in the bed? The bed is perfect so I don't want to bend it. If anyone has experience doing this, chime in let me know the...
I'm adding the emergency air circuit to my M105A2. I have all the parts I need except the plate that is welded to the underside cross member. The TMs don't show me the information that I need. Can someone please post the dimensions of the plate? Pictures with a tape measure on it would be...
Here is how I'm planning to add some stowage to my MM923. The case is a leftover from adding the battery relocation kit. I had a couple of ammo boxes so I picked up the rack to mount them. The last thing was the tow bar. I'm out of space on the truck where to store things and this is what I...
Wow, not a lot of discussion on these heaters. I just picked up two new ones at auction. Before I wonder over to the Alternative Fuels forum (I was overwhelmed by the information there), does anyone have DIRECT experience running waste oil in these heaters? I thought I'd ask for proof in the...
Does anyone in-the-know... know if the IETM for the 5 tons (M939 series) will ever be released? I see some IETMs floating around out there for other "stuff", but not for the 5 tons. I've found listings of the IETMs for MVs on various mil sites (like for example Redstone) and they do not list...
I'm trying to identify the mount in the following pictures. I stole the pictures off the internet and the resolution is too small to read the numbers. It's aluminum and I'm trying to find one. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Santa was was more generous to me that I deserved and brought this:
I'm going to install it on this:
So the question is, do I leave it green or paint it tan prior to install? Anyone with a tan truck have convoy lights installed? What color is your hardware? I have the paint but I...
I did a bad thing and left the master on after doing some electrical diagnosis on my M923. I think it's a PITA having those batteries under the seat in my M923 when it comes to working on them. Here are shots of the box all rusty 'n such.:p Nice of Minot to install a new box and wood before...
After reading posts and the TMs on the M900 series, the following questions remain - your help is answering them is appreciated:
1) I see the front propeller shaft trunnion bearing is mounted in a slotted rubber bushing. What is the acceptable "play" when using a mechanics pry bar? Not a six...
I'm trying to figure out the stock configuration of the hardware (retaining clip and anchor pin setup) between the long side rack and short side rack of a dropside. I have most of the parts collected but do not know where the "S" clips from the chains attach that retain the pins and clips. The...
I'm installing the battery relocation accessory kit in my M923 (relocates batts from under the pass seat to the toolbox location).
For several M900 variants, it calls for a "12-VOLT CIRCUIT BREAKER ACCESSORY KIT" Part No. 57K3611 and it is not included in the relocation kit. It goes on the 12...
Ever since I recovered my M923 from Minot, I've had a continuous ABS light. My Haldex code reader came in last week (first picture) and it gave me a BUDU 68 error. The Haldex Info Center manual said it was the dump solenoid on the blue channel error (second picture). That's great but the Haldex...
