    So....what do you guys exactly do with these trucks???

    These trucks (M923, M1009) were the ones I operated while stationed in Belgium, arguably the best year of my entire career. By owing these, I get to share with my two sons that feeling that comes from driving such a basic well engineered piece of equipment, as well as a piece of my youth. Not...

    So....what do you guys exactly do with these trucks???

    What do I do? Anything I want. My favorite time is when the guys in jacked-up 4x4 trucks have to look up at me driving by. Priceless.

    M923 Power steering

    Can you post that, perhaps they could get added to the cross reference spreadsheet? I will also be needing one of these shortly.

    OK... I admit it... that first step in the M925A1 is a Bit%$ .. what have others done

    My wife has a hard time, we were debating a pull out step like on a motorhome. Paint it ODG and attach to the bottom on each side. Almost invisible when not in use. I have to put one on both sides because she drives sometimes too. At least thats my excuse.

    Modern tire options if sticking with stock 10 wheel configuration?

    Go with the G177s. They are everywhere for sale relatively inexpensive from people moving up to 395s and such. Nice easy upgrade and great tire. I have them on my 923 and love 'em.

    Questions on installing hard top glass

    Easiest way to install a seal-type window is to put the seal on the glass, insert a cord or nice soft rope (550 cord works perfect), soap it up and then pull the cord around while putting gentle pressure on the window. This shows the general idea, skip up to about 5:00 and start watching for...

    Tow bar workings

    I'm glad I wasn't on the roads near you. Being that unsafe is just plain irresponsible. No offense, but it is. I don't consider a "thrill" at the possible expense of someone else's life to be commendable.

    Tow bar workings

    I can onlyspeak for 939 series trucks, but thanks to DH we recovered two in a day. It was a fairly quick hook-up, and for some reason they really aren't as fond of right turns as left (?). With the back air brakes hooked up to the tow vehicle, it was almost easy to forget it was back there...

    Trailer light converter

    Three 24v fired relays, a 12V source and hook up a whip from the truck to the box. Install a Civi "vehicle" side plug in the box, and plug the trailer into it. Works perfect. I made one. I actually ran the 12V right out through the truck plug on the aux power line so it feeds right to the...

    M-925 with "MOTOR" painted on the windshield...

    I'm a little suspect of an oil gauge that never wavered at all. That oil pressure needs to be confirmed.

    M923 cold start

    So you have an M923 A2. This information would have been very helpful for all of us. An M923 with no suffix has an 855 Cummins.
