today Well today went well. I went to Houston and picked up new airbags, new shocks and had the shaft reworked to +15" got home this afternoon and started working. The air suspension is still a bit of a mystery as to how it will sit when I am done. I am trying to copy the Freightliner...

need help... OK. I need some help from the crew. 1. I need a 5 ton front spring kit less the springs and hangars to connect the air ride springs to the axle. Ubolts, plates, pads. 2. Does anyone have a freightliner with this air kit on it? I need to know how far back the shock mount...

good day Today was a good day. I started early and learned a lot about the air brake system and ABS system on the M939 series. I gutted the ABS system so if anyone wants it it is available. I am officially on the down hill slide of this project. Tonight I pulled the tandems out from under...

N14 I am sorry but I do not know what an N14 is. As for this motor. I love it but I am scared of it because of the repair costs if needed. It is computer controlled and I am ignorant to servicing them. It is a dream to drive with power to spare. I can easily pull away from traffic after a...

Hey guys don't slam me but I need to locate the interatcive service programs for the M939 series. Yes, I know "use the search engine" posts will follow but my brain is gelled tonight. Jason, Chris, Bruce anyone... Justin Wehring

moose Moose, Derrickl112 has one for sale with an ISO bed. These are 15' long (instead of M925 14') and have cargo box tiedowns integrated into the floor. ISO beds are nice because you get a longer bed but keep the std wheelbase. Look in the classifieds for his ad. It is listed as a M923...

Thanks all Thanks all. This build has been a lot of fun. The terra tires are 42x25x20. These are not the common 48x25x20 so they clear the tandems with no drama. They said they had a hard time finding them. I am 6' and 215 but I DID manage to fit in the sleeping bag under the plate on the...

Plate Definitely plate. I argee 3/8 or 1/2. Use a gasket/RTV and heep crud out. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112

Pics OK I am back home and the kiddo is down for the night. Perhaps I should not have bragged so loudly that Mr. Murphy missed the opportunity to mess with me on the air suspension. ANY time I saved from not having to work around possible air pot interference was spent on the road. Shipping...

Back I am back after a 40 hr road trip to pick up the LWS and cab plate. Pics to follow Justin

No progress tonight. Driving my happy a$$ to Missouri tonight to pick up a LWS because shipping fell through. Give me a call. I have an extra set of M939 axles. Justin

Yea baby!!!!! I got the air kit in today. Took some measurements and all I can say is YEA BABY!!!! The offset of the leaf springs will clear the air pots. I looked at rotating the backing plates to adjust the location of the pots but it is not necessary. I will retain the intermediate axle...

Thanks I am in the middle of a bob on an M925. Thanks for posting this because I will tackle the brake pot clearance issue tonight/tomorrow. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112

R Racing R Racing, The bed is slated for a trailer conversion. I use the pull off deuce beds to make jumbo M105s. This will be my first 5 ton bed trailer conversion. I am thinking about using a deuce frame and tandems. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112

Thanks but... Thanks but I did not make it. Look up a thread for "finally - a factory deuce 20K hitch". It is made by Torklift Intl. I sent them a deuce frame section and they made a batch of these for me. They put them through destructive testing and they started to deform at 82,000#! The...

I put one of the 20K hitches I had made for the deuces on an M925 that I am bobbing this week. It is turning out to be a clean addition. I am also adding a gooseneck ball to the top of the insert so it will pull an assortment of standard balls, pintle trailers AND gooseneck trailers. Justin...

update OK the little wifey got him down. Her are the pics. I still want to tie a deuce pintle into the rear crossmember but I need to sleep on it. Justin

rear crossmomber tied in Ok I am done for tonight. I cut the frame down, tied the crossmember in and installed one of my double receiver hitches. I am sure that I am repeating some of what I posted at lunch but bear with me. It has been a long day. I am happy with how the hitch. I will...

progress Cut the frame and got the double receiver hitch mounted. I am going to have a gooseneck ball mounted to the top of the insert to give the truck options. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112
