    M931a1 pulling civi trailer

    You can always trade your Super Singles to someone that has 11.00-20's. Also you can get a civilian 5th wheel and swap it out with the one on the M931 if it is too tall.

    Modification thread for 24 volt battery for MEP-701A (MEP-016B with sound enclosure)

    Yep I bet those casters sank in that wet muck! I have a real nice set of heavy duty casters, but i know they will not work in the yard when the ground is wet. And we know that the ground will be soaked when we need to use the generator! The nice thing about this cart is that you can also...

    Modification thread for 24 volt battery for MEP-701A (MEP-016B with sound enclosure)

    I just bought: '1200-Lb. Capacity Yard Cart' by Gorilla Carts. I did hours of research for a yard cart that can handle the heavy generator and not tip over. It has 13" pneumatic tires -so it should make it across my yard even in rainy weather. I read a lot of customer reviews before choosing...

    Modification thread for 24 volt battery for MEP-701A (MEP-016B with sound enclosure)

    I was wondering if anyone came up with some sort of cart or wheeled platform for moving this generator around the yard. I need to add some sort of pneumatic tires and wheels to allow me to move this generator across my wet yard during a storm. Anyone done a mod like that?

    Modification thread for 24 volt battery for MEP-701A (MEP-016B with sound enclosure)

    I am using 2 new NAPA lawn tractor batteries rated 300 CCA each. I have a 24 volt charger so I do not need to separate them for charging. I actually installed a NATO plug on the end of the charging cable to make it easier to charge the Military equipment. I also have the 2 pin adapter for...

    This morning I went out to the shop and installed the batteries into the new tray I installed last night. I took my time and all went as planned. Had to install a plastic shield at the end of the battery retainer strap. It was close tot he plastic fuel tank and I wanted to make sure it does...

    Thank you for sharing your mod. I decided to do a very similar one myself. I am using a tray i made out of and old aluminum highway construction sign. Here is a picture of work in progress. I used two 1-1/2" by 2-1/2" flat aluminum pieces on the sides of the tray that attach it to the old...

    Modification thread for 24 volt battery for MEP-701A (MEP-016B with sound enclosure)

    I measured the area available and I determined that I would have to have to cut the sound insulation from the bottom of the cover panel in order to fit the 2 lawn tractor batteries. The batteries measure 5-1/4" by 7-1/2" each. Side by side I get 10-1/2" by 7-1/2". The original battery tray...

    Modification thread for 24 volt battery for MEP-701A (MEP-016B with sound enclosure)

    I was hoping not to have to cut up the sound baffle in the cover to fit the batteries. Anyone have a cheap source for the 4HN batteries?

    I need source for 24 volt battery for MEP-701A (MEP-016B with sound enclosure). The two 12 volt tractor batteries will not fit with the enclosure intact. A model number or any info welcome.

    need info on M923 ,Big case

    You need to read our posts more carefully. I already stated in LOW range transfer case. I never said anything about 6x6 mode. The mod is to put the transfer case in high range or buy a M818 series truck. The M923 has the air flip switch for the front axle.
