Just want to make sure I'm not going to ruin anything, I tried starting one of my 5 tons, apparently the quick start system must have a leak somewhere, I can smell the ether but it didn't even twitch the NHC250. Now the batteries are pretty well drained. I can hook up my other 5 ton to it with...

I won a BMY M931A2 truck tractor in Sparta, WI. The description says serial 31/xxxxx, the video of the dash plate shows 32/xxxxx , the PMP plate shows 33/xxxxx What gives? the numbers after the slash are the same but the first two are different!!! Anybody know where on the tractor frame if...

Saw this at a local car dealer(you know the ones that want $12,500 for a M931A1). Took a quick peek in it at 3AM, nice and clean 15K on the odometer. Has a big escape hatch on the roof, I didn't look underneath. Is this an armored 923A2? It has a big tubes holding up the roof.

When I first start up my M923A2 the system builds air and honks normal when it reaches proper PSI. I then drive it, park and shut off the engine somewhere. Come back restart engine then the CTIS does a long drawn out sick cow honk, I hit the hwy button to stop it, it's kinda embarrassing. It...

Been a while since I took the deuce(A3) for a spin, the 5 tons sure do make the deuce an old hag. Winding the Cat out at 50MPH, It's just screaming for another gear. anybody figure out a replacement that doesn't cost two arms and two legs yet?

I could have sworn there was a metal bracket holding up the vinyl cover when I bid on this truck, but alas there is no bracket. This cover makes a lot of nose inflating and deflating driving down the road. Is there a mil standard for holding this vinyl cover upright? Or do I need to keep using a...

Is there a preferred side/designated side for the 939 series? I'm thinking right side for cable convenience? I notice on the deuce it will have to be left side but that's down the road, right now need to start drilling holes on the 923A2.

Took two parties on a ride, my troop seats are fiberglass and it's flaking off. What's the best way (is there a way?) to reseal these seats so the fiberglass doesn't bother people? Would repainting do the job? Thanks guys!

Okay I knew I heard something when I left camp Ripley I stopped a 1/4 mile away asked my wife if she heard anything, Thought it was the Pin/chain for the telescoping bar for the spare tire carrier as mine was missing the bar and the chain was dangling. Front transfer case plug? Transmission...

I'm out of control, is there a cure for this madness? Is that some kind of strap wrench on the front seat and what is it worth? I have a feeling it's not going to be there when I retrieve the vehicle. M923's sure are going cheap IMO, guess everyone wants A2's? I got this one for $2150

Bought a couple antennas, sugar scoops and fender mounts. Is there any other methods besides fender mounting that is standard for 5 tons or deuces? Where do the antenna's get tied down at for movement on 5 tons and deuces?

Is there any set protocol to bumper markings? I see white box with gloss black markings and regular black markings on camo.... I decided to redo mine with the white box, black markings.

What are the brackets on the top of the hood and the spring loaded latches for? I have one fastener for the sides on my 923A2 I cannot break free. It looks like they carced over the threads. I tried even using a sledge hammer after numerous applications of PB blaster, cannot budge it, Can't...

My A2 overspeed light on the dash flashes pretty much any time I go over 55mph even when the highway selector has fully aired up the tires and is a steady red on the highway mode panel of the CTIS selector. Anyone else have that issue or a clue to why it may be flashing? I understand it's there...

My recently acquired M923A2 has one tire that is wearing much more than the others(middle axle drivers side), the spare looks like it was dragging( I'm guessing instead of fixing the problem they just changed the tire). My question is what do you guys think it could be? Only thing I can come up...

I need the telescoping arm of the spare tire carrier boom mic'd, just the outside diameter. Mine didn't come with it, I bought the arm from a M931 and it's slightly too big of a diameter to fit in the boom on my M923A2...I would've thought they would all be the same, silly me.. I'm going to...

I'm going to do some painting soon, know the three basic colors, but what is the lighter green on this truck? Is this an improvisation by a soldier?

Looking for the radiator cap assembly(spring, gasket and lower/upper cap). Where can I get the entire assembly? I can only find the cap looking online.

M923A2 I've searched the TM's and the site and can't find much on the parking brake indicator. It's pretty much the only thing on this truck that doesn't work. Replaced the bulb of course with known good. Any ideas where to start? Where is the switch located for activating the parking brake...

My boom is missing all the hardware and telescoping bar. Can someone post pics and dimensions for the bars that telescope form the basic boom? I believe all the 923's share the same parts except for the basic part
