    Self recovery with one person, one pickup, and one M939- how to do it?

    You should have two recessed flat plates on your RH bumper. Fab a bracket for your towbar to grab and bolt it here. I've got a couple I fabbed. I'll post pics when I get home this evening

    Self recovery with one person, one pickup, and one M939- how to do it?

    I've done this quite a bit. I used a medium adjustable towbar and tow the pickup behind the 5ton.

    Just got my first MV!

    Bleed and inspect. Replace anything questionable. These trucks have a single circuit system. Any leak or failure loses all your brakes. I've done it at highway speed. Once. It was more fun than anyone should be allowed to have.... Which fluid is in them currently?

    Just got my first MV!

    Did you get a cargo cover with it? That looks like a fantastic truck. The winch really adds to it. I prefer the manual transmission in the 809 series to the 939's automatic. And that NH250 sounds a lot better than the 8.3 liter school bus engine in the M923A2... If you go to sell those...

    Cummins NHC 250 versus Cummins 6CTA8.3

    I've had bunches of trucks of each type. 8.3 gets better fuel mileage. My almost 40k wrecker with the 8.3 gets substantially better fuel efficiency than my 23k M925 with NH250. 8.3 holds speed better when already at hwy speed and hitting a hill. Loaded heavy and slow, off road? NH250...

    Aftermarket alternator

    This has been resolved - I got an original alternator thanks to @Jbulach . I'll leave it up as someone else looking for which one to use can find the 28si info.

    Aftermarket alternator

    I messaged him a while back on the topic. No reply. He hasn't logged in since November. I'm kind of worried about him.
