    You can use 15w-40 to top it off. Or the Dex 3 as already stated by westfolk.

    Lets See Your 5-Ton!

    I couldn't make the last mudfest. Looking forward to the next one though! Not interested in getting my truck very muddy, so I will be lurking around the puddles.

    Lets See Your 5-Ton!

    Looks like some nice work trucks! I hope you get the transfer case issue worked out soon.

    Well I'm 0 for 2 on a 5-Ton with working 6x6

    The 4x4 always works...? The reason we can buy these trucks is because the military already got their use out of them. Did you really expect to get a truck that has zero issues?

    M939 SERIES SHUT DOWN PROCEDURES or FRY your ECU!

    This is common info. You start the truck by turning on the battery switch, then the run switch. Just do it all in reverse. You will mess up the PCB box if you do it wrong.

    Oh Dear Lord! I just bought a 5 ton from Ft Rucker in AL. Now what?

    I could not agree more. I understand what you are saying. I did have a chance to look over another member's 939 before I picked mine up. So I knew what needed to be done to run the truck and a basic understanding of what to look out for. I think this is one of the most important aspects of...

    Oh Dear Lord! I just bought a 5 ton from Ft Rucker in AL. Now what?

    I was 19 when I bought my 5 ton from Jeff City. Luckily I had a bunch of friends go with me that knew the truck well. Looked it over for any obvious things, fired it up, and I drove it home about 130 miles. If I can do it, you can do it. I don't understand why people think these trucks are such...

    Bed attachment

    Okay here is what I got. There are three sets of bolts holding the bed on. The front set has springs on them, then moving to the middle are just normal bolts, along with the rear most attachments. Hope this helps!

    Are you still needing some pics of the bed attachment? I have my truck out today. I will snap some for you and post them up later today.

    M923 M939 VIN location....where I found mine.....

    It took a while for mine to come back. I think it was about 3 and a half weeks. All you can do is hurry up and wait.

    M923a1 air brake question

    Every time someone asks me why I need my truck, I simply say. "Why do you have your car, truck, dirtbike, etc...?" They always answer "well cause it's fun" or "it's my hobby". And I look at them and look at my truck. They usually get the idea... Glad it drives good for you. They are some...

    M923a1 air brake question

    Thanks for the manuals Artisan! I have read through some of the previous ones you posted and they seemed like they had a lot of good info in them. I liked those because they are actually field manuals instead of whatever the ones are here on SS. They seem more idiot proof in other words :D.

    M923a1 air brake question

    I agree. They are all the same truck. Just designated with different numbers so that the military can easily specify what is needed. Essentially they are all the same truck. Just like the 923 vs the 923A1 is duals vs singles. From what I have heard before from other guys with the marine...

    M923a1 air brake question

    Depends on if you are in low range or not. My truck does fine in high range with only the back axles moving the truck. It churns around corners sometimes. But once you get into low range, it is very hard to turn on pavement. I have no idea if I have lockers or not. I do know that in low range...
