    M923A2 Aquisition

    Do you happen to have a picture of your battery setup? :) Sounds like a good plan if I have to replace my batteries at some point. Are there any serious drawbacks to having only 2 in these trucks, or are they higher-amp batteries that make up for it?

    M923 head light

    You're welcome. Here's the direct link to the swap thread that I followed: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?34411-H4-Headlight-Conversion SUPER easy.. Just 3 wires per headlight to crimp or solder to the adapters (and I recommend using shrink tube like I did to protect the...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Actually accomplished quite a bit today.. I wired in an outlet between my 2 garage doors, for use with my block heater. I was going to use the one by the door into the house, but then I would need a 20ft longer cord. That was actually kind of fun.. Been a while since I ran conduit and pulled...

    M923 head light

    For what it's worth, I just did the H4 bulb conversion in my M931A2. $40 for each Hella bulb, maybe $8.00 for 2 pigtail connectors, and I think $15 for 2 Hella H4 bulbs. Gives you better light output, and since it is no longer a sealed beam headlight, you just replace the bulb when it burns out...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Also picked a case (6 1 gallon bottles) of NAPA brand coolant designed for heavy duty vehicles. Low silicate with sca as was recommended. It's the undiluted stuff, so I will need to pick up some distilled water to mix it. I was very happy that they had it in stock, and in enough quantity to meet...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I also bought some more goodies for my toolbox on an excursion to Harbor Freight (had to go there to buy a cheap heat gun for the shrink tubing.) Picked up a small axe, deadblow hammer, mechanics wire, stainless steel zip ties, plastic zip ties, a cheap utility knife, a tire pressure gauge...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Finally received my H4 ceramic pigtails :naner:Went to NAPA to get the appropriate connectors and shrink tubing, then I went ahead and installed one of them (passenger side.) Even during the day, I could tell there was a significant difference. I'm guessing maybe 25-30% brighter? I left the...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Yeah that's what I did.. Bought mine from a private seller so it already had an Illinois title. No forms or BS for me :)

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Yeah I know. I passed the written test for my license a month ago, but I still haven't gone back for the driving portion.. Been working too much.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Finally primed and bedlined the inside of my second toolbox (the one under the passenger side door.) Once I get some type of rubber mat in there I can finish putting all of my tools in the truck. I was amazed at the amount of stuff I was able to fit in the smaller toolbox mounted behind the...

    They tried to kick my truck out of the neighborhood!

    Scum of the Earth with nothing better to do than screw people over. Can't stand people like that.

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    What's interesting is that they took the time to install that light in the dash, but didn't spend 10 seconds and put one of those stickers on my tach
