    HASSON1911's M923A2 Acquisition and Restoration Thread

    I honestly haven't had my M35A3 on the road since I got my 923A2! She's getting pissed! Next up a wrecker someday!

    M923A2 VIN question

    I have to disagree on the serial being where people are stating on the BMY 932A2. I have two lines of numbers stamped in the frame on the left side, neither of them are even close to any of the indicated methods of numbers. My Data plate fits the 23/xxxxx perfectly. If it's on the frame it's...

    M923 CTIS problem

    Well from what you're describing you have all the hardware to the tires. You have a dataplate on the right side of the dash, no doubt it says A2. You have a lot of reading to do in the TM's. TNJmurray has parts for the A2. Pictures would be good. That's really strange that all the tires are...

    M923 CTIS problem

    Are you joking? If you have CTIS, it's an A2. A1's have the same tire size as the A2, but none of the CTIS hardware.

    Height of a M923A1 w/super singles?

    Data plate on my 923A2 and you're correct, the 5 ton makes the deuce almost look like an econobox!

    Driving 5-ton with parking brake on...

    I would retrofit the M35A3 parking brake light or add a buzzer. On my M35A3 you simply can't move the truck without noticing the brake on with the light and lack of movement, on the M923A2 the buzzer is pretty annoying. My Parking brake light doesn't work, on my to do list.

    M939 Spare Tire Davit weight rating

    The problem IMO is the leverage on the extension shaft itself, it's sticking out what 4 ft? No different than using an M936 Boom at maximum length to lift another truck.

    M939 Spare Tire Davit weight rating

    I can't see that the tire/rim assembly is much less weight than the chainfall is rated for on the 939 series.

    Driving 5-ton with parking brake on...

    I find it hard to believe if the parking brake is adjusted properly, you can't notice it's on in any of these trucks.

    Need a favor from a M923A2 owner with a micrometer.

    That would be 2.46 inches correct? Perfect. I was going to have it turned to 2.45! Thanks a bunch. Thank you all gentlemen for the replies. I'm really surprised the A1 and A2 aren't the same as the others. Hopefully it will hold up turned down another .050 or so.

    Need a favor from a M923A2 owner with a micrometer.

    No, talking about the extension part with the stop on the end for the trolley. It slides into the boom and is pinned to hold it there either retracted or extended to bring the tire out to the side of the truck.

    PM's you, my truck came with nothing, I need a kit. Thanks

    Need a favor from a M923A2 owner with a micrometer.

    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...

    You have the trolley upside down. A chainfall attaches to the eye.

    Probably within a year after we leave, The Taliban and Alqueda will be using most of it.

    Question about the paint color on my 923A2

    So this was just a soldiers improvisation?

    Question about the paint color on my 923A2

    I've never used a spray gun before, so I was planning on paint cans, but maybe I'll give it a try.
