    Anybody Running 915,916,917,920 without the secondary air filter

    I think that since the engine would generally cost more that the truck itself I'd call a Cummins dealer and get the advice from the horse's mouth. If things go as planned the stock air filter on my M915A1 is getting yanked out and a filter is going either on the fender horizontally or...

    932A1 seat upgrade

    I'm not familiar with the spring base in the M939 series but in an M44/M809 cab the spring base with an M1009 bucket seat give me a few more inches of headroom and about 3" more lap and leg room in addition to being pretty comfortable. (6'4", 230#) Lance

    Has anyone bought an M1009 that doesn't start?

    I've bought a number of M1009s and M1008s, some listed as running, some not, some unknown. Some were previewed and some not. The only one we couldn't drive home or onto the trailer was listed as non-running. It had two bad batteries in it. We dropped batteries in it and it fired right up but...

    Since the question has to do with picking something up from GL, not the military, wouldn't this be better asked of GL? Lance

    M818 with hydro setup

    I wonder if a gas or diesel pony motor with a direct drive pump might be the ticket. Lance

    New Mdl CD-10516 key question

    While you are in PA maybe you could fit in a stop at the Red Ball show in Gilbert. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/upcoming-events/76419-2012-redball-gilbert-show-dates-info.html Good luck with the new truck. Take a rag to stiff into the back of the transfer case and some zip ties to fasten a...

    M939 and M915A1 PTO info

    Danl, if you look at the side of the tranny behind the battery box cover you'll see the data plate. It will confirm or deny what tranny it is. I've never heard of an M915A1 with anything but an HT-754 CRD but who knows what could have been done over the years. Lance

    M939 and M915A1 PTO info

    I don't know about Muncie but Chelsea clearly states that their constant mesh PTOs for the Allison transmissions we're talking about here do NOT need shimming and claim that fact as a benefit that makes for easy installation. Still, if you are concerned then that's why they have technical...

    M915A1 tractor to trailer cable

    Ferro, I suspect the issue is that the GI trailers don't have running and clearance lights so a civy trailer is drawing a lot more amps than a GI trailer with just tail lights. I guess you could use the regular light switch to trip a relay and let the relay carry the load. I'll have to ask my...

    Frame rails on a M915a1

    There are some thick triangular gussets running from the side rails to the rear rail over the pintle that may be in the way. I'm looking at putting a flip goose neck ball on my M915A1 and will likely have to weld a plate between the gussets of be prepared for some fabricating. Lance

    The M915/M916/M920 do have both a civy 12 volt and military 24 volt light connectors. I don't know about the M931/M932. Lance

    Vinyl Cover Identification?

    Ditto. From the limited view it is the part of a 4 seat soft-top humdinger cover that boots up to the short piece over the front twp seat. It covers the rear two seats and the cargo bed. Lance
