When I bought my 5 ton, Doug (Trailboss) was really awesome about going over the "small" things that could give me trouble during my day to day loving of the truck. One of the things he mentioned while we had the hood up and was going over different items was the emergency shutoff solenoid. He...

All- I am having trouble with my truck smoking one of my batteries. Brand new type 31s, when fully charged, (brand new) no issues. Both times I've driven the truck when I shut down, when I go to start, my inner battery is toast (digital charger reads ERROR and my mechanical charger shows a...

Many thanks to Juan Prado and the info he provided in our phone calls..... I use State Farm and before buying my 5 ton, I made all the various calls and checked different companies out. I used a Progressive link and ended up being quoted by Hagerty for ~550/year with no garage/carport...

First, let me say a HUGH thank you to Trailboss! The man has been nothing but patient and awesome throughout this entire process! Thank you and kudos, sir! Ok, as I stated in another thread, up at 0400 this morning due to not being able to sleep last night because of the excitement! Hit the...

All- I work offshore with robots and one of the things I teach is electrical troubleshooting. With my new guys I've noticed a lot of times they tend to either overthink the issue or are so intimidated by the system their brain freezes up. My advice to them (and it helps on MVs too) is...

All- Question about a title- a FMV (5 ton) was incorrectly titled as "offroad use only" during the fiasco here in Louisiana a few year back and I'm wondering about the process to get it corrected. I did a search, but what I found were threads I had started back in the day regarding titling...

I'm looking online for parts for a 923A2 and a lot of the sites mention "fits all 939 series trucks". Does that include the 923?

All- After **too** long of not having any green iron in my life (like an idiot, I sold my deuce at the urging of the now ex-wife) it looks like things are coming together for me to get my fix again.. Several members here have helped point me in the right direction and helped me find available...

Hello all- I'm back, been gone a few whiles to get my life started again, which seems to have taken a little longer than I anticipated...... That said, I'm looking to pick up some local (Louisiana) Green Iron. I have a definite budget, but am looking to pick up a M1009 or similar. I've...

I made it home literally for 3 days around the first week of December. My wife and a some friends from church were in charge of the float for the Christmas Parade happening in Deville, La. They were brainstorming trying to figure out who had a trailer, a truck to pull it, what goes on the float...

I am at work for the next month or so and am missing my deuce "George".... I **finally** have my M-353 trailer and will be decking it as soon as tome and $$ allow. I just wanted to post some recent pics. The one with the 353 is just a pic of George "styling" and the other is a recent camping...

The reason it isn't a road trip is because I never got on the road. I went from my land to the neighbors land.... My 87 year old neighbor came to my door yesterday afternoon winded and out of breathe. He tells me he needs my "big green truck" real quick fast and in a hurry. He had a tractor...
