Hello and welcome from SC

Like the man said try the reverse parking and see if it make a diff . I wonder if it could also have something to do with how much fuel you have in the tank . I wonder if the angle is steep enough for the pickup tube to be sucking air . Let us know for sure it is an interesting problem........

Well it seems like the woman above you in the motel really gets around . She may have been in New Castle Delaware around Thanksgiving . Her yelling and cussing gave her away but this time at least she was in a room and not the parking lot. Great truck I almost bought a tractor too but, I knew...

I have the up most respect for the Guy on the bike.\, but this is why we have 4 means of transportation. Motorcycle, Blazer, 4 runner and a 923A1. I am getting far to old for the recovery time when your caught out in storms like that on a bike. Oh and I like toys also :)

Mine isn't bad compared to some other trucks I have driven ,so I live by the law of if it ain't broke don't try to fix it

Congrads , I'm sure the truck will handle much better with the new tires . From the looks of it you could use some chains on them too....

Very nice Be sure to post more pics of them on the truck .......

The primer went on smooth I just worry about Glidden products I used them many years ago and didn't like their results. Of course I did say MANY years ago. Good progress thanks for the pics

before I ever thought of buying a 5ton I called my DMV and spoke to a supervisor. She was able to answer all my questions in about 5 minutes . I suggest you try the same thing ,,,,Good luck

If you have ever driven a big truck and know a little about the SAFETY issues involved then by all means if the truck checks out drive it . I pulled 600 miles and like the man said it is an adventure to remember ..........

Nice purchase I can only hope you have as much fun with yours as I have my 923A1. You may find you don't even have go anywhere they are fun just to work on or just play with. I blame it on my mom for giving me Tonka trucks as a kid . :)

Congratulations on your first MV , may it serve you well........

Well at least you didn't have to wait until it froze or dried up to drive out . And lets face it the pioneer tool kit in times like that are ornaments not tools . At best you knew who to call when the crap hit the fan,

Nice build ! I have entertained the idea of doing the same thing to my 5ton . I know it has been done in the military also, because I have seen some for sale. I noted on the military ones they rounded over the corners and I believe the top had a gradual round over on top . Let us know how the...

Thank you Steel for the advice . I will use the converter just to safe . The most sicking feeling is when you hit the start lever and all you get is ............Silence .........don't it suck lol :)

I think that you have the Marines version of the A1, I read where it was made to fit the size of their shipping cubes .What gave it away was it had 5 dropping sides and it was also a foot longer the most . The standard length is 14 ft. So this is the one you will find a 923A1 missing panel...

Thanks for sharing , It is a shame it never opened but , it is still a slow climb out of this economic hole. Hope they find a good home.......

Thanks for your in put guys . After measuring the pros and cons I think I will let it pass. It is heavy and to tell you the truth The way it looks is the only thing I like about it . If there was a way to use the hubs on a straight axle modify the body and eliminate some of the weight then it...

Very nice job I intend to do the exact same set up with the disconnect . Provided I ever get the chance to, it is raining or my work load is just to heck tic . I like what you said about getting to old :) I SO resemble that remark. On the diagram of the battery cable that connects the two...

You my friend have found a winner , The trailer looks great and I am sure you will have a blast with it . BEWARE that's how I started and now I can't and don't want to stop :) . Welcome from SC and enjoy this site . Their are some of the best guys in the world on here and we all have the same...
