30 wt engine oil.

Ah throw caution into the wind, I bought my m920 in Louisiana and drove it like I stole it all the way back to spokane wa, over 2500 miles in three days. Passed every weigh station and cops waived as they passed me. And no I am not licensed to drive a tractor. I did have insurance but the rest...

Give me a call when you have some time and I will give you the rundown.

The truck can run without batteries if you have to, you can just turn in the screw in the back of the shut off solenoid and she will run all the way home. Who needs a stack anyways, drive it home and straight pipe it when you get a chance. This is a very clean looking truck, sure beats the 6k...

See I am a good luck charm, went from talking about it this morning to owning one by the afternoon!! I should be charging for this much good luck!! Congrats and welcome to the club.

If you are referring to the 818 than last time I checked the fuel tanks had an extra piece of steel (armor) for the tank, it will survive just fine.

You would run into a ton of fitment issues with a Hemtt axle up front, the rockwell that is in the 916 is a 20k axle, plenty for anything you would ever do. Plus gears are readily available for about $500 for the front.

It looks like it should have been that way to begin with, I contemplated doing the crew cab on my truck but I got a divorce instead, much easier!!!

The U bolts are fine, If you are nervous about the gap between the ubolt and the spring loosen them up and tap them inward and tighten them up. As far as the welding is concerned these frames are not treated steel, hardened, blued, dipped in chocolate or greased. The military TM goes over the...

yep, I have the big one on my 920 as well

I have access to a bunch of both, tires are not in good shape but I can get plenty of wheels. Let me know.

The only gauges I intend to add are egt and boost. Don't much care about the fuel pressure, I am not changing buttons or anything to raise it to any alarming pressure, if it starts to leak I know I have a problem. I am going to drill the panel that contains the headlight switch and such and...

All of these fuel mileage posts all relate to one thing... Power to weight ratio, the more power you have (in the diesel world) the less an engine has to work to get a vehicle to a desired speed. This should also ring true with the modifications that I am making to my truck, well so long as I...

I have not adjusted it yet but I did expose it in one of the pictures above for reference.

it probably would be worth waiting for a winch truck if yo do not already have one. You would have to obtain all of the things you mentioned to do it correct, pto, drive shaft, winch, bumper extensions, linkage, shifter etc. would be a direct bolt in if you did find it all. that is more likely...

well I got a second wind and decided to move further ahead with the fueling mods. I also did a tune up, filters and belts and took pics of the correct part #'s to save you the time at your parts store trying to measure and read through books for an hour. I also Included a pic of me freezing my...

none particular, it is cheap(less than $20 for all of it), easy to source, every napa has it, it is more similar to the OE setup that has been in there and worked great the last 30 years so why mess with it. Just my thinking.

thanks for the advice, My little ray of sunshine!:-D

last couple of photo's

So here are some pics of the mayhem, radiator is at the shop will cost about $80 to repair and I have all new belts and filters to install in the morning. I bought 2 45' 1/8 elbows and one 1/8 to 5/16 adapter and a 30" brake line from napa. Everything went together perfect, the line sold there...
