    923 a2 PRIMING WOES AND PARTS QUESTION

    use a 10mm wrench on the back side of the injection pump and open the bleeder valve then pump away on the hand pump or... tap a schrader valve into the fuel tank cap and pressurize at max of 5 psi with that bleeder open. Wa-la! Fuel, primed, and on the road.

    Auction date changes, MK48 and Hemtt recall

    I see them too but won't hold my breath for them. They're 30+ days out and can be dropped in a split second..plus that batch will go sky high due to panic/demand. I'm just going to keep watching and waiting.

    4l80 swap into m114

    Patracy is doing this I believe. I too have been contemplating this but haven't sat down to compare it vs the stock transmission.

    What to do with an m656

    Those are rare vehicles, you're best off selling it and buying something more fitting. I'm not speaking purely from the standpoint of preserving the truck but they had a lot of unique parts, are tall, old, hard to find tires, etc.. There are a few that were made with expando bodies on them but...

    M915A2 highway speed

    Pulled right from the TM. Also, as long as you're planning to do 55mph tops your solid. Toss on some 395s and get 62 mph cruising easy. Having had the 7155 in an M916 and the 5 speed Allison in the M915A1 I much more enjoy the Allison, I just wish it had an O/D.

    FMTV High Speed Gears

    Ditto. Act quick as I stopped by there 2 weeks ago and just about everything MRAP related is gone. They may have some stuff hidden away or off site...you never know.

    M270a1

    I'm at this step with my M270A1. I just put in a new wiring harness today but have been stalling with the wood until I find the right one. I wasn't aware treated wood could mess with the steel. :?

    M923A2 Windshield washer replacement

    Was the quote of $300 for just the washer bottle? I have NOS bottles for $65 + shipping if that helps any.

    M123 near Spokane Washington

    I don't think so, it's not full of bullet holes. :razz:

    Gov Planet auction unsuccessful

    I've not seen this before but I'm going to guess the item didn't sell nor will it be relisted with a lower start bid thus it's "unsuccessful".

    M1083A1 or m923A2?

    The M923 will be better suited for your needs due to simpler design, easier to source parts, and general costs. If you managed to get an M923A2 your mileage would be between 8-12 mpg compared to the 5 of the 1083A1, this is assuming for cargo truck configuration not carrying a box. The other...

    2 HEMTTS slipped through the cracks today and were sold at auction

    I was on the M977 W/W until it broke the 5 digits. They were too rough for that cost.

    M813 repower

    So what I'm hearing from this thread is M939 base, M809 fenders, and make the M809 hood a tilting hood like the M939. DO IT!!:jumpin:

    M813 repower

    That is correct, it was a model for export only to Brazil.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Its been a busy week. I parted out what good was left of this M813. She had water damage, mad max style roll cage from the VFD, ^@%# rat-nest wiring, a ton of torch holes where they installed piping for the pods in the bed, and then left out in the elements for about 5 years. I was clued into a...
