Thought I remembered needing air in the system so I checked it while running and still had no luck. I don't have admin privileges on my computer so I can't get the P2P program to download or open. I'll double check the TMs and check to see if I'm getting power at the trailer connection pin.
I'm looking to run lights, to a civilian trailer I want to tow with my M932 tractor. I took the wiring harness, from a M105 I used on a bobber project, so I can plug into the M932's rear trailer plug. The problem I'm running into is that of the 8 wires, in the M105 harness, I can not locate...
Borrow someone's Garmin GPS or smartphone. I'm no tech-tard but the smartphone is handy. I don't know how many times I've looked at the TMs on my phone while I'm working on my truck or when I'm just killing time somewhere....
When in doubt, burn it. I'd always have guys say "I'm not sure if this document is FOUO, classified, ect ect and no longer need it. What should I do with it?" Into the burn pile was the answer. We had no fancy dancy shredders in the land of sand.
There's a guy out here that runs a M813 on 16.00's. The power loss is not that bad, since we're not running hills. On a bobbed truck the power loss is non existent, due to the decreased weight from bobbing it.
I'm running the front springs, from a deuce, under my bobbed M813. I've heard...
I ran my old bobbed deuce, on 14.00x20s, through a lot of the Corbett. I would have run it through more spots but there was nothing with me that I trusted to recover me, if I buried it. Obviously the 5ton is much heavier but most the stuff out there is high water related unless you go...
The air dryer and various check valves have a tendency to stick if they sit too long. This renders the air brakes inoperable. That's one of the M939's biggest issues. No real way to check for it, prior to purchase, just have to look for the little things showing proper PMCS. Proper PMCS will...
I've used Krylon desert tan, from a rattle can, a few years ago and it worked well. Just used OD green Behr, a couple weeks ago, and it seems to be working well too. The soft tops are fairly good at absorbing and holding paint. I'll try to get pics later
They look like Goodyear 14.00X20 MVT tires mounted on the stock 9.00X20 wheels. You can fit the 14.00X20 (46" tall) tires on the M35s if you lengthen the dog bones and slide the rear axle back slightly. Not the safest configuration, most people frown on running the wide 14.00X20 tires on the...
If you're looking for comfort go with the M915/916 trucks they're much easier, on the driver, over long hauls than the M939 series trucks. They have more power, higher top end, more cab room, and better creature comforts. Just my 2cents
Throw a gauge on the outlet line for the compressor and let it run. Also the outlet line should be hot to the touch, if producing sufficient PSI. If the pressure is good there, at a constant rate, then begin troubleshooting down the line. Generally if there's no leaks, and no valves are...

That kind of stuff is usually found in the 5 ton hot rod section. Search is your friend....
