What was the fix?

I've seen a number of threads on the temp, but not frequency. I have a feeling mine is not cooling optimally, but could be overreacting. Coolant flush is in my future, as it hadn't been PM'd yet. 80 degrees out yesterday, no load, flat surface, not pushing if, back roads, not highway, paved...

Well, did something a little stupid. Walked the truck, and then used shop air to air up the tanks. My spoiled 925a2 lives its retirement in a garage, so starting it indoors is like instant asphyxiation. So I checked oil and coolant, then closed up the hood and hopped in. Stated it up, then...

I will expand a bit here to help those who have not seen the movie.. Randy Shughart and Gary Gordon were both awarded the medal of honor posthumously after Mike Durant's BlackHawk was the second shot down during the battle of Mogadishu and he suffered a broken leg and injured back. Randy and...

Well done vid, and I spent the morning looking at the 3DR's. The song is also off the BlackHawk down soundtrack, which I need to watch again (probably in the top 3 movies watched repetitively by me). I know there is a member here who grew up with Randy Shughart, it made me think about them...

Re-looked at Simp5782's post. Doesn't it look like the stars and stripes? (stripes are obvious, the stars you need to use some imagination, although I see the headlights.). He's a patriot and his truck will not fall!

Bill of sale, same day. SF97, brutal. It took multiple calls and emails to get it moving. Not enough info (fully filled out form), can you send it again, it's being signed today, now waiting on that person... Had to raise some **** with a supervisor, but she got it moving. 3 months on an...

If it turns out to be the fail safe , I've got a couple of take offs in the classifieds. Borrow someone's to be sure.

Green is my vote, if I want red, I'll buy my own LED's. M939 for me, as that's all I have. Maybe even do a mixed set for Christmas. (Ha) Seriously, if you need help, I can lend a hand, I did a couple of "runs" for my robot hobby previously.

Search the NSN, they come right up. $20 a piece. I also found them for $14.50 each elsewhere. Again, search the NSN in the PM Mag. I tried to give you the Ebay link via PM, but you're full.

The solargizers that came in most of them, are not chargers, but desulfaters. Wonderful job at keeping the battery optimum, but not charged. With no sulfate it will keep the charge better. It's a funny argument, but check the differences, some units have both built in. NOCO is my choice for...

What a story! It makes me want to check every bolt on my truck. It's not like that's on the recommended auction recovery check list. New batteries, check, fluids, check, install all transmission bolts, check.. It always amazes me the tenacity of SS members to fix / secure anything on the...

That was definitely an issue when we recovered one from Fort Hood. Ours was a drained one, so we thought the worst, turns out it was the transfer case. Shifted it in gear, and away we went. I sure hope it's that. But I want to see the magic trick...

This is quite an elusive part online, here is the part number. The only one I found, I pulled off myself in a salvage yard. Dana Spicer Tire Inflation Pressure Switches 673345 NSN 5930-01-446-9234 CTIS Some people have deleted their CTIS, and probably have it wired still, maybe they could...

Simp, was there any movement in the wheel or noticeable wiggle when the tie rod crapped out? I am getting a bit of marking on the steer tires, but think it's because I turned too tight. Any indication that would tell us the tie rods are going without popping them out?

Did an emissions test on the M925A2 as required by my county, then called the county the truck actually is parked in, and found that there is not emissions requirement. I will transfer it next year. Found that the spare tire / muffler bracket was wiggling so much because of both loose bolts...

Since I toasted my battery terminals, I swapped the battery. The other battery in the pair was about 1.5 years old, so I got a little nervous and went back up the next day to load test it, to both our surprise it was pulling 1020 cca and was 13.1v, so we both concluded fine to put next to the...

That location is brutal, I tried to get one at BFR and even with right wrench, I couldn't get it. Nice job.

Best use of yoink I've seen in a bit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJh1hmmLLzw

Another fun fact, the county health department certified the MKT, as long as we prepared our food back in our business kitchen. You could also probably do this in a commissary kitchen. Check the hand washing station on the back in the picture above... We also used the slave cable to drive the...
