    M923A2 ON 53's and M105A2

    Lunette is flipped. We will do some measuring and see what the diff is. It is ok if trailer is up in front some, just don't want it to be too much.

    M923A2 ON 53's and M105A2

    I may have not been 100% clear. Not looking to put 53's on the Trailer. The m923 has them on it and just seeing if that trailer will hook good behind the truck with 53's on it. Truck not here so I can't be sure!!!!

    M923A2 ON 53's and M105A2

    Anyone have any idea if a M105a2 will ride good behind a M923a2 on 53's? Worried about height difference between trailer and pintle.

    M923a2 IP issues???

    TM says TDC prior to removal. I do not see what it matters....pump will be timed before installation and pump off will allow easy timing of motor with the timing pin.

    M923a2 IP issues???

    Can anyone tell me if the timing pin is spring loaded. It was out, I tapped on the end of it and it went in about halfway. I am thinking it is riding on the timing gear waiting for hole to come around and fall in. Just not sure if I have to press on it while trying to barr engine over. Only...

    M923a2 IP issues???

    Thank y'all that reached out to give advice. Have reset throttle, adjusted idle up just a bit and taken all slack out of throttle from pedal to pump. It has an excellent idle, good throttle response when sitting still. In reverse it is fine. In drive, it may or may not have power. When it does...

    M923a2 IP issues???

    This will be a little long. Please bare with me. Equipment status...starwheel all the way to motor, that other screw is turned out some. The fuel adjustment on the back of the pump is turned up some. All of this was from previous tinkering and things have been excellent other than throttle...

    AL Types of Tags for M35A3

    On my trucks, one has retired marine, one has disabled marine, and one has the regular Baldwin County tag. You can get the heavier load tags if you want to pay more money. In our state, things are fairly easy.

    Another engine noise video

    Thank y'all for the replies. I know the squeak near the tensioner goes away with no belt. Will get it hot and take belt off tomorrow and see about this sound. Pretty sure not alternator just does not sound over that way but will definitely find out tomorrow, will use the hose like Action said...

    Another engine noise video

    Been around HMMWV's since early 90's and dont remember a high pitched whine coming from the motor. Not like this. The sound it in the video if you can weed through the normal rattling shitbox sounds. I have a squeak up front from what I think is the idler and I thought this was from that but...

    Transmission hard upshift

    Will give it a shot!

    Transmission hard upshift

    I lubed up the cable as suggested, made no diff on it. That shift is the single thing that sucks about driving that truck. Is there anything else to check? I am hoping to work on it this weekend. My damn fuel pump is leaking yet again. No gasket this time, just the correct RTV. Not sure what...
