Hi all- I have a M925a2 . Been messing with the truck for years and its been fun. I have used the winch for stupid things and pulling cars from out of ditches and always worked with out a problem. I was "playing" and was trying to use my winch to pull a tree down when cutting it. Noticed...

am I posting in the wrong section? anyone have any input for some help? thanks!

Forgot to update: I went with Grundy insurance. Only thing was it needed to be garage kept! Lol. Luckily I have a barn. Was cheaper than everyone and was similar. Thanks everyone for your input…

Hi all- So got this truck a few months ago and been driving it and doing a few little things etc. Lots of fun especially in New Jersey.... however I noticed that I don't feel the jake kicking in. Can anyone tell me if they hear or feel the jake when driving this truck? I have gone on...

hi- does anyone have any ideas where to hook up a 12v outlet on their m1070 HET? Is there any connections somewhere in the truck that someone found? I know that they used laptops in the trucks but I can't find anything. I know I can just run a direct line from the battery but might ask the...

ah interesting... so not worried about the transfer case heating up then?

My Hawker 6T AGM batteries from 2004 just started to get weak! Awesome battery’s. Thanks for posting and the offer!

Impressive You are not worried the axle portals will heat up?

Nobody has any ideas? Thx

So just got an m1070…. Pictures didn’t show this as an issue till I got it home…. Anyone have any ideas where I can get a grease cover boot or do I need a whole new bushing etc? Bushing is tight but I imagine once I start driving it will become a problem. thanks in advance.

congrats- yeah hagerty sounds great - sometimes i like to to go to home depot to get some materials. they said i am covered but only for parades... :cautious:

I totally agree. Just curious how they did it! Not saying I am going to insure it as a camper. I already have a 45 ft camper. But its funny that people without a cdl with a camper can drive a 35000 earthquake on wheels and have air brakes etc... not even adding a trailer haha... For me...

Thanks for the info- the quotes I got were with commercial insurance- its not possible as of yet to get "cheap" insurance for this truck- I have a m925a2 and its 300 for the year. but its the weight of the truck. hence it has to have commercial insurance. thx

Thanks- No I don't have any tickets. Fully clean driving record for 20ish years. cdl for 10 years and no tickets either... never hurt to tell them- thanks for the info- max speed is funny on a truck like that. but i know I will get there and back hopefully

thanks- interesting. I will call state farm back and see what they say again. Last time they told me its bc the truck itself is 40,000 lbs... i donno - so confusing thx

I do have my class a cdl. however a m1070 is a very "big" truck and insurance is a pia over it. I have my 5 ton and its $300 for the year with state farm! historic license plate and all. I want to do the m1070 with historic license plates also....

Thanks for telling me the wording of your insurance...

Thanks for the message.... if you don't mind me asking what is your quote for your truck to insure with StateFarm?

hi all- i have a Oshkosh m1070 that I just got- Its a 1994. I live in NJ. I had state farm for my bmy m925-a2 and was great however insurance is only $400ish for the year however they will not cover the m1070 because of weight and have to put it under commercial truck insurance.... anyone...

So just got a m1070 het. Couldn’t find another place to post so I guess this is the forum to post. If wrong sorry- so my air dryer on my m1070 starts to dump air right away when I start the truck. If I put my hand over the outlet it then stops pumping air out and starts filling the tanks for...
