    What TM can I find these air seats in?

    I purchased 4 in same crates as you saw these in, and they were used take-outs. But mine were complete, after a little clean up they look great. I had to fabricate 2 new bases for mine, as the HEMTT bases that were attached were angled so had to do a bit of fabricating to get the...

    What TM can I find these air seats in?

    Under the NSN section, click on "More Info" which brings up as belonging in HEMTTs. I just installed 2 of them in my M931A2.

    DMV asked for FMVSS proof..

    Not trying to beat this to death, but it's not really fudging. I spoke with a MC inspector earlier whom I know, and he told me that as long as the truck was built to contract specs (FMVSS requirements at time of contracted build), then it's not an issue...as long as none of the GVWR, GCWR, Dry...

    DMV asked for FMVSS proof..

    According to my DMV rep (I know, different state but I was curious) all you need is to get hold of a sticker/plate that says something to the effect of "This motor vehicle complies with all FMVSS requirements at the time of its manufacturing" or something to that effect, and place it on the...

    M925A2 Delco Style Alternator

    I meant to pass this along earlier; the alternators used in A2s is a AMA-5108UT. Erik's has parts for the 5104 & 5102, but didn't see anything for the 5108s used in A2s. I had 2 alternator shops search far & wide, but couldn't find any parts anywhere for it. One shop did provide me with some...

    M925A2 Delco Style Alternator

    Trying to find the proper mounting bracket is proving to be quite a challenge ( Cummins 3929418 ). Almost all of the wrecking yards in southern Nevada were out-of-stock of Cummins 8.3L 6CT engines; only one yard had them (B&R), but they only sell complete engine assemblies - no parts off of...

    M931A2 5-Inch Exhaust + Heat Shield

    Finally got around to finishing my exhaust conversion and adding a heat shield to the muffler. I used 5-inch steel exhaust tubing and elbows, along with a Donaldson single-stage muffler. I made my own adapter brackets that would bolt into stock exhaust/muffler locations, yet allow the muffler...

    M925A2 Delco Style Alternator

    Well 74M35A2, you might be in business more than you think....my 931A2 alternator smoked the regulator, and I've spent the last 2 weeks being told by all of my formerly reliable alternator/generator rebuilders that they can't get parts for the stock L-N alternators anymore. I just want my stock...

    ??? on Front Differential seal replacement and front bearing cover removal on a M939

    I recently had to replace all 4 seals on rear axles & 2 seals on transfer case on my M931A2...too much sitting around made them brittle and cracked. I also replaced all the bolts & nuts that attached driveshafts to pinions, as most had been overtorqued and were stripped. The good news is that...

    Fried Alternator?

    Mine fried on the drive home after the Veteran's Day parade...I always shut down in proper sequence so it must just be age/vibration/etc. Crap.
