Yeah, I have an M928A2 that has the same sticker on it that says the truck is an M923! Basically, here are the main differences... M939 NHC250 Cummins Allison auto tranny 1100x20 tires M939A1 NHC250 Cummins Allison auto tranny 1400x20 tires M939A2 6CTA 8.3l Cummins Allison auto tranny...

Just as an FYI, that truck is not an A1. It is an M923. You can tell by the dual 1100 tires. Also, the 1984 build year confirms this. IF it has an A1 data plate, that just means they used one when they overhauled it. I am pointing this so you get the info correct on the title...unless you...

Just to speak out to defend those who have pointed out the negatives...imagine what might happen if no one did so. This guy explained that he made two unsafe moves...first driving a truck out that he knew nothing about (both in operation and because of its maintenance history). Second, he...

Since it was not stock per se, there is no standard location to my knowledge. I would suggest either on the front headboard or or the tailgate, but the rack and tools may interfere with the cargo cover tie down points.

David, I left you a voicemail. Please call me back. Thanks!

I don't know about other states, but, in Maryland, the vehicles need to be 20 years old for collector plates.

Feel free to stop by to take measurements of a complete bow assembly. I am right off of I70 near Mt. Airy (about 15 minutes down Route 27).

How do you have the M923 tagged? Commercial? I would almost guarantee that you can't (legally) tow your M916 with the M923 with historic or collector plates. Make sure your insurance covers you, too. Nothing worse than finding out you are not covered AFTER something happens. Not trying to rain...

Great job. Now all you need is the fuel burning heater to set you up right for the ND winters!

Is there any chance to go back to the previous owner to question him/her about the discrepancies?

I just did some quick math on the fuel you'll burn driving there and back. I estimate about 62 gallons, but it will probably be more because you almost certainly won't be getting 8 MPG on the return leg. However, at 8 MPG, you will spend about $225 on fuel ($3.50/gallon). So, in essence, you are...

My only suggestion is to be very careful pulling a heavier truck with a lighter one. Hooking up to the front glad hands is advisable as the other poster stated. Even this is not the complete answer as a heavier truck may push a lighter truck on turns. Also, make sure your insurance will cover...

This truck came straight from GL. The truck looks like it was under water...not entirely...but it was probably stuck in fairly deep water. This might make sense as the bumper #s indicate it was a school truck. There is water in the power steering reservoir and the transmission. Joe thinks...

Also, if anyone has a lead on a rebuilt or new injector pump for a 6CTA 8.3L Cummins motor, please let me know. Thank you!

GIJOECZAR contacted me regarding a problem that he uncovered with his M925A2. He is on the road and does not have Internet access and asked me to post a question to the list. Here is his info: "A2 not starting, because it's not getting fuel. There's fuel pressure all the way to the fuel...

Clean looking truck. Congratulations. Let me know if I can help.

Just as a point of comparison, I bought (about two years ago) a verified zero mile, freshly rebuilt motor in the can with dyno specs from a surplus dealer in CA for $7,500 and that was the "as delivered" price to FL.

Find yourself an M52A2. They are cool trucks, are kind of rare these days, and have a nice sounding turbo! Plus, they would have been correct for the period, too. Everyone and their brother has an M818. Go with the multifuel...

Welcome. When I read "Western MD," I was thinking Cumberland or Deep Creek Lake. Boonsboro is on the other side of the mountain from Frederick right? If so, you are about 40 minutes from me.

Contact DECODEME as he has one and has restored it. He might be able to turn you onto some of the needed parts.
