    M923A2 for a tanker truck

    The M939 series trucks have a wider cab. The hardtop is longer -so the M813 top is not going to fit the M923. The rest of the truck should fit your needs well. I just Titled and registered my truck at 41,000 pounds GVW. So I know it can handle the tank without any issues. The air brakes are...

    goldneagle's M923 recovery and modification thread

    Looks like the console fabrication will have to wait until I fix the top weatherstripping above the door. The hard-top we installed is slightly off alignment for the door glass. I think the sides of the hard-top are slightly flared out above the doors. When the windows are all the way up the...

    Thank you. Compliments are useful too. They give encouragement. Wait until you see the overhead console I am gonna build! Just waiting for dry weather since I have to work outdoors.

    goldneagle's M923 recovery and modification thread

    Thank you so much for all the Birthday wishes! (sarcasm) I received the radio, speakers and antenna today. They look nice! Been thinking a lot about how to proceed with the overhead console in the M923 truck. I checked out what one member did in his Deuce. Unfortunately that will not...

    pics of m923 with oversize super singles?

    You keep mentioning speed, but neglecting the fact that the 14.00's and 16.00's are only rated 55 MPH top speed! Where as the Goodyear G177 11.00 are rated 65 MPH top speed! So you can go almost 60 MPH with the 11.00's at about 2200 RPM. But you safe top speed with the bigger tires is only...

    6 year old gasoline...

    Wouldn't it depend on the ratio of oil and gasoline?

    6 year old gasoline...

    He can always mix the gasoline with the waste motor oil in the IBC on the Deuce. That way it might be ok to transport in an IBC.

    6 year old gasoline...

    Get more IBC containers and have some empty ones at home. Then just transfer the fuel from the IBC on the truck to the one at home. If you have time, filter it while transferring. This way one less step later.

    need some help choosing a truck

    You need to look at the one in the junk yard real good. Check if it has fluids and fuel. Might ever want to try and get it started if the owner will allow. Will probably need batteries. You can put some gasoline on a rag against the breather cap and see if she will try to fire up. If I were...

    goldneagle's M923 recovery and modification thread

    Today was my birthday so I decided to take it easy. I dug up my CB radio. A 7 year old Cobra unit. I cut and drilled the metal piece I had marked yesterday. Sanded it clean and attached the antenna base to it. Then I cut one of the ends off the CB cable and attached the provided eye...

    goldneagle's M923 recovery and modification thread

    Was 66 degrees out today. Repacked thee tool boxes and added a few items. Still more room left for stuff. Afterwards I decided to fix the small 2 foot picket on the passenger side. It was the only part of the bench seat/picket that is not fiberglass slats. I also wanted to move the damaged...

    OK... I admit it... that first step in the M925A1 is a Bit%$ .. what have others done

    Very nice looking Gene. The actual step does not match the one in the manufacturer's picture. Over $100 for that step? Ouch!

    Want to put A/C in a M925A1... anyone got pictures of their install?

    How about some pictures. Check out my thread on my M923 modifications. I built 2 tool boxes to take up that space above the large tool box.
