Ahhh, it's easier to see in the 800 series manual. The 939 series doesn't make sense to me as it refers to using the wings so I don't understand how it meters the dump. I uploaded the spreading section from each manual here.

The dump bed on the M929/930 is shaped differently than civilian dump trucks and has an odd gate arrangement. I'm interested in getting one to move build roads on my place, haul brush/trees to the burn pit, etc. but not sure how well it's suited for those tasks. The civilian dump trucks are...

Thanks- that is a good site. I just looked but wasn't able to find where the cam follower was listed. There is a service manual for sale. Any idea if this is any good?

Okay, that makes sense as I sent a message via paypal about the pushrods when I paid but didn't hear back. No worries. And yes, last post was 1 Oct because later that day my wife gave birth to our daughter...been kinda busy since then:shock: My days and nights have been blurring together...

Wes- I paid and pm'd you a while back but haven't heard from you. Let me know that status of the cam follower. Thanks, Rex

Engine No. 11108780.

Here’s a pic —— You’re too fast Wes- will get engine tag as soon as I can get back to truck

Cam follower is cracked on my M925 parts truck with NHC 250. I want to see if the engine is salvageable so need to replace the follower before playing with it. I’m sure these are plentiful but don’t know the commercial part number(s). And any recommendations for a parts house?

What?!? You didn't read the fine print before you bought an item? For shame.... :rules: I just read the fine print myself and found this: specific items that are not covered include (a) conditions that can be identified only through the operation of a machine on a job site or under load...

I noticed on GovPlanet most of the vehicles listed have the IronClad assurance inspection that is outlined here. Looks like it just means someone working for the online auction house personally inspected the item and documented the info. On the flip side, when a vehicle does not have the...

Yeah, I'm not having much luck. Was hoping someone had a good answer but not holding my breath.

In case someone is looking, it's this thread which has amazing info (thanks Gringeltaube!). https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?84241-Combat-wheels-FMTV-wheels-HEMTT-wheels I wasn't sure if those wheels are the ONLY wheels that fit our trucks. For instance, the Caiman MRAP isn't...

There a number of decently priced equipment trailers that go at the Ritchie Bros auction in Dallas and Houston and I'm wondering if if I can get a one-way rental truck that has air brake connections I can use to pull it to San Antonio. I do a lot of travel for work and can easily jump off the...

Thanks for the pic and confirmation. This really helps.

Thanks- that answers part of my question in that they should not be used for M939s. I understand hub vs stud pilot. And agree M939s need stud pilot. I just don’t know the bolt pattern for these wheels.

Since these wheels are hub pilot, does that mean they have the larger 10 x 335mm bolt pattern (and cannot be used for the M939s)?

From researching this on the interwebs, the 15.5/80r20 tire was only used on the PLS M1076 trailer. Maybe it also was on the PLS M1074 and M1075 trucks early on but it seems like those trucks migrated to 16.00r20s now. The question is what are the wheels that came with the 15.50s? They look...

Glad you found the owner. As another M923 owner, I’m curious as to what part could have fallen off the truck and caused serious damage later. ​

I can’t really offer any help from Texas, but a pic or description of the part may help better track this down on your side.

Thanks Will. I've read most of your posts about adjusting the valves and injectors and appreciate the info. It really helps me comprehend the mechanics of what's happening when the pieces and parts are whirling around together turning fuel into noise and motion. I also remember one of your...
