    I'm interested in one of the stainless steel pickup tubes. What would be the price including shipping to 31763 for a 80 gallon M923 tank?

    M939 NHC240 Fuel Delivery Issue

    As configured, yes. Install another cable lock on the other side and you can turn it into a push / pull arrangement.

    2018 Georgia Military Vehicle Rally buy-sell-trade

    I'll trade you my thimbles and outer lugs from my M923. Please bring the wheel nuts so I can install them when I put on my new wheels and tires on location. I'll be easy to find since you're truck will be lifting mine for the tire swap.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I think I'm good. I really don't want to change up something that's working good. I'm sure you're take off pump would be awesome and would only take about a hour to swap but I'm sticking to an annual oil change and lube job on the truck prior to going to Durhamtown. The less I mess with the...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Made and installed a patch panel for my doghouse thanks to Welder1. I cut a hole into it rather than remove it when I installed my dual fuel line set-up that Simp made for me. The cut I made was not very pretty but the cover panel makes it look factory. Now I need to buy some shrink tubing to...

    PB, He probably won't disappoint you this go around either. Briggs is getting bigger and eats more as well. He's almost as tall as Tony now.

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2018 - September VOTE HERE!

    I've really been slacking when it comes to campaigning. I washed my truck today getting ready for the GMVRR and a few local parades. I washed black mess away from green paint in places. I'm just happy that the truck did great last year taking me there and back as I was on crutches during the...

    Ron, do you have any of the M923A1 "BigFoot" kits? I'd like to build one with my boys.

    PB, I'm going to buy you a steak dinner this year. Lee and the boy's didn't make the trip last year due to illness but I remember Briggs eating about half your steak in 2016.

    2018 Georgia Military Vehicle Rally buy-sell-trade

    I would have thought that flat 4 would make more than 6 horsepower. We had one on an air compressor in the National Guard, it would make a neat go-kart engine.

    DoD Excess & Gov Planet

    I'm just happy to think of happier times. $1,000 dollar Deuces that ran with a jump start was the norm. 10 years ago. That all dried up. What GP is doing is replacing the middle man and attempting to realize that profit for themselves. I posted on another thread concerning this topic but...

    I want a yeller CAT

    I have no choice but to learn them and Love them as they are in almost all current medium and heavy fleet trucks. C7 in MTV's, C12's in MTVR's, C15 in LVSR and current HEMMT's, C18 in HET's. I don't know the history you gentlemen have had with the older models but the newer ones seem to hold...

    2018 Georgia Military Vehicle Rally buy-sell-trade

    I'm looking for a few fuel filters for the large driver's side frame mounted canister. I've found them online but $14 shipping per filter is a deal breaker.

    Does my deuce sound right to you? Audio inside.

    The audio sounds like a dead cylinder to me. Not sure if injector or valve related. Do you have an infrared temperature meter? With the truck running, beam each cylinder at the exhaust manifold to see if one is significantly colder than the others. You'll find the cylinder that is not on...

    Need Guidance, M923 loses air zero leaks found

    It doesn't take much of a leak to drop to zero psi in 30 minutes time. When my truck was doing that the issue was a very minor leak at the rear glad hand valve on the emergency side. Mine now sits about an hour before dropping to zero, I need to replace my overpressure protection valve as that...

    Need Guidance, M923 loses air zero leaks found

    Is it leaking with the parking brake applied (lever raised) or just when the parking brake is released (lever down)? The reason I ask is a large leak can sometimes be a parking brake diaphragm that is cracked or ruptured. If that's the case, it should only do so when the lever is down.

    M1083 reliabilty as daily work truck.

    Simp, I don't disagree with you often but I've driven an M1089A1P2 powered by a C7 lift towing an M1085A1P2 and could run on the governor for most of the trip from Waycross, Ga to Albany, Ga.

    923a2 rebuild

    Do a quick search about Blount Island. They don't have a depot rebuild facility on-site. They offload and onload equipment onto boats, do operational checks and make sure the basic issue items are associated with equipment headed out to sea.

    M1083 from Ft. Benning to Winston-Salem, NC

    Papabear, Hopefully the truck moves under it's own power and has good tires. I have no clue. If it runs and has good tires, I'll come by the yard and drive it to Leesburg. If it has good tires but doesn't run, I'll pull it behind my M923 on a towbar with safety chains and airlines hooked up...
