Thanks! It is an air force truck and already had ATF in it so I am no judge as to any change. I will say that it does not have hard shifts, just firm... both up and down.
And on the connectors, I ended up using some decent but not waterproof connectors and used some west marine liquid...
Yea that
It is on my list too. I am going to have to remove the hood and do a full re-hab on it though. Got some rust that is ready to start peeking through. The insulation will be a must though. Might pull the hood this weekend....
A cumulative of things I have done in the last couple of weeks on my new to me M923a2....oil change, transmission fluid and filter change (Dex), new belt, new Simps 53's, got CTIS working, and just now
Tried to Install some headlights from TMG....big mistake. Complete junk connectors and wires.
I got some new inner frames a while back and got around to putting them in the other day. I prepped and primered the hinge (had to re-use old ones) and screwed them in and hung the frames.
Just now tried to lock the frames in and they hang maybe 1/8" too low to pass by the window lock deal on...

Unpacked two brand spanking new (vintage mid 80's) loaded deuce doors. Just something awesome about opening a crate that has been sealed up for over 30 years.
What antifreeze did you go with? I just watched your fluid balance video the other night. I am about to break down all of my tires starting this weekend for tire swaps.
Looking for the TM that has the disassembly of the Landing gear in it. The one in the TM section has everything but that unless I am overlooking it. Got a bent main shaft that goes down into the gear...Pretty sure it will be easy but want to look at its innards before I tear it apart.
All this talk about cordless impacts has me rewriting my christmas list. I have a small dewalt but never considered a larger one for the lugs and so forth.
