Picked up a 1991 M925A2 in November from another SS member, love it, all that. Noticed the air filter restriction gauge was reading close to the red line (indicating to change it). Bought and installed all filters as PM, including the air filter (acquired this from a military surplus vendor...
I've had 5 beers and 18 chicken wings prior to writing this, so I hope it comes out ok. Curious as to if the storage box behind the cab of an M931 will fit it the same location onto an M925? The mounting bracket seems to be an extension of the spare tire carrier, but on mine I would instead...
So how does one refill the large cartridge fuel filter container after changing its filter, reassembling it dry, and therefore losing the prime charge on the mechanical lift pump? After nearly killing my batteries, and going through a full can of starting fluid, I realized just cranking and...
Fuel gauge is way off. Disassembled sender, found copper float chamber full of fuel. Replaced with new sender. New sender now ohm's out OK, but gauge still reading off scale. 24-28V power into gauge checks OK, but ground circuit resistance on wire to sender shows 30 ohms. After checking...

Hope everybody had a good Thanksgiving.
Any known power combos to work well for the 8.3? Meaning bolt-on's beyond turning up the pump. Examples of turbo's, pumps, injectors, valve springs, timing advance, etc.... Appears Banks offers something called a stinger system for RV's with this...
Hi all, new here. I'm purchasing an M925A2 this weekend (is $8500 a decent price if clean for a 1993?). Looking to soon thereafter convert the cargo bed to dump action. Want to keep the cargo bed and not buy a full dump truck. What are the current options for purchasing/fabricating a dump...
