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...
Someone posted a pic of the mod that eliminates the front axle automatically engaging when putting the transfer case in low. It was as simple as removing a washer from the high/low linkage.

I'm jealous. It's not rocket science, but it pays to read the TM's I'd take any of the three! You said you wanted to turn a couple into dumptrucks, shoulda just bought a couple M929's. You can always sell me one of the winch trucks :)
I've added Rotella to me 923A2. A lot of guys apparently change the trans to dexron, I'll stick with what they started with. Hear you on the wife. Mine will be pitching a fit soon as I snag a wrecker one of these days! She didn't mind much cause I got my 5 ton cheap.
Lucky.....I didn't have a **** thing in the goodie boxes. Did have a extra shackle, a couple military pouches and some paperwork indicating my truck was in Kuwait at one time in the early 90's in the cab.
I took the crapshoot on mine, but bid low, $3250 got her, Needs a lot of rust removal and repaint, but other than that and one tire wearing much faster than the rest and shaking at 55-60 MPH and resewing the top at the front and adjusting the idle speed It's all good. Mine had 29K+ on it.
I have the same issue. 55 It shakes like the death wobble on my deuce. Do you have one tire that's worn more than the rest? My left middle axles tire has much more wear and the spare is worn down like it was dragging and replaced with the current tire. I caged the brake, but no difference to...
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...
There are no counterweights on either rear axle on my truck. Are there supposed to be? If you mean the front axle, Yes there are two and they look different than the deuce.
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...
Lucky you. I had a dogbone come off a M35A3 shortly after I bought it in my back yard. While I was backing it into the pole barn my wife noticed a trail of fluid. The middle axle dogbone on the drivers side had come off and crushed the brake line. I replaced them all and it was a bitch. I still...
