    M939A2 A/C Compressor Mount Kit, Pass Side, Factory Serpentine Drive

    Working on this kit, as promised, as some of you in the south are already begging for it. Bracket is done and mounted, compressor is mounted, I now just need to obtain a longer belt. She looks great and makes much more sense than the $500-$750 Red Dot/Kenway kit that adds a V belt compressor...

    Alternator Conversion Bracket, DIY

    In my ever long quest to get better alternators on our machines, reliably, and at a reasonable price, I have posted the correct cast alternator mounts from Cummins to utilize economical and available civilian J-180 "short" alternators. These factory brackets can add $100 to the cost of a...

    Conventional Alternator Bracket for NHC-250, Cummins p/n

    Due to the sudden popularity of my 130 amp 24v alternator, I have investigated and found the "civilian" alternator bracket mount for the Cummins 855/NHC-250. It is Cummins p/n 218505. This is the lower mount that bolts to the block via 3 fasteners. This bracket will/should adapt a standard...

    Max Obtainable Hydraulic Pressure on 925A2 Hydraulic System?

    I believe the factory relief valve of an M925A2 hydraulic system is set at 1800psi or 1850psi or so. I'm looking to add dump cylinders to my cargo bed this spring, and if I can up this pressure, I can reduce the cylinder diameter/weight/size/cost. Has anybody messed with their relief valve, or...

    M939A2 Fumoto Oil Drain Valve Install

    Bought and installed a Fumoto oil drain valve in my M925A2 (Cummins 8.3). Not sure I like it yet, 50/50. Find myself looking at the oil pressure gauge often now. It is nearly solid brass and located above the front axle, so something would have to protrude up and into it's cavity similar to...

    Cummins 8.3 Serpentine Belt Tensioner p/n and Price

    Just wanted to give an update for the serpentine belt tensioner for the Cummins 8.3 engine. I used Cummins Quickserve with my engine serial number, and it called for p/n 3911621. So, I ordered it through my local Cummins dealer. I was presented with p/n 5333478, at a cost of $82. It is a...

    M939A2 CTIS Rear Hub Question

    I'm finding conflicting info on if 5T (A2) CTIS rear hubs are grease or oil lubed bearings. Looks like grease inner and oil outer? I'm converting the back half of a 923A2 to a trailer, and possibly retaining the CTIS since an A2 is a single channel CTIS system it should not know the...

    M939 CTIS Reprogram, Anybody Done It?

    Has anybody successfully reflashed an M939 series CTIS module to alter the tire pressure? Have seen one-off threads of supposedly being able to, and another of needing a "Y" cable to do so (Suprman), and free software download from Dana. Would like to hear of a success story of actually having...

    Another "Don't Use Low-Reverse on 939 Series" Thread? Yes, But Fact Finding... The "Don't use low-reverse" on M939 series seems to really have a mixed bag of emotions and outcomes. What I'm trying to decipher is, are there any cases of the T-case breaking from low-reverse usage with the front...

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A1 Truck

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A2 Truck I found the pic below and got all excited. It is an M35A2 pulling a trailer made from an M35 chassis, but it looks pretty good with fresh matching paint. I can get an M923A2 rearward of the cab with extended frame rails. The singles would allow it to...

    M925A2 Front Driveline Vibration

    Seeking similar cases of front driveline vibration at higher speeds (>40mph), which disappears if the front drive is switched on, and what your resolution was. I'm so far guessing a U-joint or knuckle joint in one the front axle shafts, but also wondering if back-dating the front driveshaft...

    M939 ABS Module Pics

    Just bought a new replacement ABS ECU from SUPRMAN after over-volting mine from shutting off both dash switches at the same time. I don't think a proper design should be able to self-destruct, but whatever. Thought I would throw up a few pics of the new module, prior to install. The module...

    M939 PCB-ABS Relationship?

    My ABS ECU is dead from improper shutdown. I was habitually dropping both switches to off, and would notice the volt gauge swing to red as the engine was coasting down, and then the gauge would bottom out to off. ABS 15A fuse blows as soon as replaced and battery switch is flipped on. Have...

    M35A2 + 6-71T Detroit Diesel 2 Stroker Marriage ???

    So, I don't belong in the 2.5 forum because I only owned one for a week and had the chance to double my money on it, so I did. But it was a total riot, and I wanted more of it. With that, I went and bought an M925A2. But, upon doing so, I met a fellow enthusiast (WildChild467) that is fairly...

    Detroit Diesel 6-71 Pic, Factory Turbo and Super Charged

    Just thought I would throw up a pic of a 6-71 Detroit I have in storage. It is a 1982, and came factory with both a turbocharger and supercharger. Much like a lot of the V-8 Detroit Diesels did also, it was more rare of a 6 cylinder to have the same setup. Has a 7 speed spicer bolted to it...

    Anybody done one? Attempting one on my 925A2 utilizing the medium duty tow bar with 10'-12' legs substituted for the inner tubes of the same dimensions (2-1/4" OD x 0.250" wall). Will have tow bar clevises welded onto the ends, pin to front bumper shackle mounts, tied back with rear winch up...
