    Which military truck is the most capable? Good survival vehicle?

    I have an M925a2 in southern BC, Canada. With 14.00's she is lethal to drive in snow unless u run chains. Those can be quite spendy and a lot of work to put on - ask me how I know

    M939a2 Air compressor

    Sorry in advance if there have been posts on this. I am needing to remove air compressor for the 8.3 in my 1990 M925a2. I read on a heavy equipment forum that the compressor needs to be timed to the engine. However, the TM's seem very non chalant - remove bolts, replace gasket reinstall...

    M925 Spare Tire Davit Extensions

    Sorry if this has been covered but I am just looking for dimensions of the extension. My 925 has not had one since I’ve owned her. Buying a surplus one and shipping to Canada is horrendously expensive due to its size and weight. If one of you would happen to know the length and positions of...

    What would be the best method to drain and flush? Any simple way? Or just disconnecting stuff and letting her drip?

    Growly Steering M925a2

    Fluid level is good, appears to be motor oil. Not sure if this is a normal thing for these trucks or not. Mechanical inspector guy was concerned and is one of the "problems" he wants corrected before it gets a pass.

    Growly Steering M925a2

    Apologies in advance, I have searched the forums but with no luck. I have a 1990 BMY M925a2. Up here vehicles over 8200kg in GVW must get yearly inspections like any other heavy truck. One issue my inspector had was with the steering growl. Not sure where to start with this, anyone have any...

    M939 Tie Rod Ends

    I've found some on Friday morning on Ebay, TRW's. Guy has a whack of them so I ordered 2 rights and 2 lefts for $18 US each. I'll see how they are when I get them. Being in Canada this could take a bit. Sorry, I have not logged in since thursday.

    M939 Tie Rod Ends

    I couldn’t find anything on mine. Mine are a different manufacturer I suspect. Grease zerk is on side with a raised cast area

    M939 Tie Rod Ends

    I'm pretty sure the threads are inch and a quarter. I used a 1 5/16" wrench to remove nuts.
