I have one and a Duece and M35A3. Like all of them. M923 is a sweet truck and fun to drive. Mine has been solid and trouble free. Once I singled mine out, it had the right look about her. Pete

Have noticed pricing going up as well-especially if it has a cargo box on it. I recently bought an A3 for 5K-didnt view it. Came missing drive shaft and was complete with blown head gasket! On the good side-bought her for parts. She shows 3K on speedo and looks like its probably accurate miles...

the long one ran about 6 out the GL door. Have since added a set of tires-rims. She is a great truck. I drive it all the time and actually do a little work with it. She currently has mulch in her bed!

M36A3 has standard A3 wheels. I changed them out to Hemtt with Goodyear 395's. I like you have a 71 Duece W/W-I plan on singling it out and putting my A3 wheels and Michelins on it. Given the tires are not as large as the big Goodyears, I think its going to give it a perfect look. Pete

The A3 seems quicker but feels heavier. Its a great truck that mates with engine power and transmission nicely. My thoughts are for a camper too. These are long trucks that give many opportunities for a camper. I picked up a shelter-14 foot long and put it in the bed. I will be making a camper...

I am currently doing a build with a 788 Gichner body. Have built a tube frame for it and now have the body set down on it for first fitting. It will have independent air bag suspension, 3500 pound capacity, pop top, bathroom-shower and cook top. Two fold down beds for over night camping. Unit...

It is a 788. When I am finished with it, she will deflate her airbags and sit right down on the ice. I am making it for use as a camper as well. Adding stove, bathroom and pop up top.

Had the duece out this weekend and decided to bring a few buds along. Sarge is a boxer-his sidekick is Chuck a sort of basset mix up. Jerry came with too-he is a little camera shy Springer. These guys love riding with the windshield open. Short in town rides at 30 MPH is the max for noise. Quick...

OK-sounds just like mine. Seems high to me, but have read of another members truck at 80 plus. Must be ok. Pete

Shortly after I recovered my M923 I had a leak at the bell housing. Kept an eye on it-was just drips. After about 300 miles on her, the leaked eventually stopped. The one concern I have is my oil pressure-seems high at about 80 PSIG when running at highway speeds. Everything seems ok but...

A3 with winch-nice truck Pete

I have two A3's and and A2. One of the A3'w has the big Goodyears on her. Both of them have lock out hubs on them too. A2 is all stock and runs sweet-heck they all do. Both A3's start better in the cold-one of them starts below 20 degrees with a short shot of ether. I like the power steering and...

Eat whats left-raw for good luck. Hang the bones from the inside of the cab to dry.

I have three A3's. On every one I have found at least two new tires that appear to have never been flat-they all still had long nubs on them. I put the good ones on the front and no shaky. I have some tires that have mud stains on them from being flat and sitting-those take up the rear for now.

I have two of these trucks-both CTIS barely worked. I just shut them off and fill the tires directly on the wheel valve in the square cut out on wheel cover. Both had the shimmy. I aired them up to 50 psig and it went away. One thing you might try-pick the two best tires and put them on the...

Mine came out of Sparta Pete

Bruce, Thanks. I will take your advice. I have spoken to others about the hard 2-1 shift, and it seems all do. Even though this truck has beast sized parts, this down shift is to harsh-mechanically. Years ago I put a shift kit (spring) in an automatic transmission I had (V8-Vega). After I did...

Pictures show before and after on my Sparta recovered M923. Added a battery relocation kit. Sanded, ground and painted he (except box). Added a new set of combat wheel and large Michelin tires. Truck runs well except for hard 2-1 shift and a small stain on shop floor from bell housing (not sure...
