    5 ton air lockers?

    steer and rears These are a full set of 3 with air lockers. You can change out the backing plate with 900 series parts to convert them to 900 style brakes. Yes the 900 air system will operate the air locking mechanism. I can provide you with just the axles or do a complete conversion to...

    Thanks Thanks for the info guys. I am better understanding this motor due to your research. As for the 8.3 in this truck, it is a go. This truck will be sold but I believe that this motor upgrade will serve the end user well. Saving ~1000# and increasing the power by ~60% will wake this...

    Cummins I cannot find a hard answer on the military 8.3 cummins. Does the engine in the M939A2 trucks share the same P7100 IP as the civilian counterparts? Are there any significant differences between the civ and gov 8.3s besides 24v to 24v? Justin Wehring 979 997 3112

    Yuma I will wrap up here in Yuma today so I travel back to TX in the morning so I get an extra day (Fri) on the truck. Can't wait. I got the OK from Joe to keep the 8.3 but we did not discuss a price. :twisted: His comment was that it is hard to sell me something that I sold him because I...

    8.3 cummins There is nothing to do in the Yuma desert but work and think. This is a bad idea since I left at the tail end of a project. I talked with a good friend that bought my M931A2 with an 8.3 Cummins. There is a chance he will not take the engine and tranny when he picks up the truck...

    missed the deadline Well tomorrow I depart with the M923E3 ESP to pick up an M113 and attend a machinegun shoot... sadly the bobbed M925 will not make the trip. I simply could not complete it in time without cutting corners. This next week I am out of the state with work so it will be 2 weeks...

    ball It was a 30K before the machine shop turned it down. The previous diameter was to the shiny area on the flange. I lost a lot of capacity when the od was reduced but I will get a lot of it back when it is welded. I have sent the pics and dimensions to a stress engineer at work (NASA)...

    Thanks Ted Thank you Ted. I will spread the leafs apart when I clamp them to the axle. It looks like the bottom bolt for the bag should be centered on the frame. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112

    hitch Picked the hitch up from the machine shop. They drilled and tapped the insert for a ball then turned the ball shank down and threaded it the full length of the shaft (to the flange) for strength. I will weld the ball into place tonight. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112

    Finally - Factory 5 ton 20K hitch

    plates The plates are 1/2" The ball is a 30K ball but I am going above and beyond (as usual) to ensure safety. The ball will be threaded into the top of the hitch then welded in place. The drop mount is solid 2" stock. I am not sure a 1 ton would be safe. This type of gooseneck hitch will...

    whole again... It is carrying its own weight tonight. I unhooked the crane and removed the lift. I am not sure what to make of the airbag "twist". The system is set up as freightliner designed it and the replacement bags are the same part number and dimensions as the old bags. If anyone has...

    Finally - Factory 5 ton 20K hitch

    question My target client pulls his ferret with a gooseneck. Marketability is the point for this one. I believe that ONE hitch that can pull a 2" ball trailer, pintle trailer and gooseneck trailer is a great asset. I have each on our farm and I intend to build a second one for myself...
