I know this has been posted before, but I'm having trouble finding the threads. I have a deuce, which is a keeper, and I want to be rid of the NDTs on it. I would prefer to keep the stock rims. I run it in west Texas, where everything that grows, slithers and walks pretty much has nettles or...
Anybody know where to get these? The only etching on the seal is 4591SCR. Says National Seal on it. I've been through h!l* so far trying to get them. It's the dust seal on the front of my 923.
That makes sense; I'm seeing it now. Since I have removed the CTIS system, can't I just do away with the 2 inner seals that seal off that CTIS hole in pic #2?
Above pics show my question(s). First pic where the arrows are: what is the bolt cap on the hub between the arrows. Is this for adding grease? The hole goes straight down between 2 seals on the axle spindle. Second pic with the small arrows has us bewildered. What is the hole for?

Will work on that today; I realize it's kind of a nebulous question, but I think I have a weird front axle, or I'm not seeing how the inner bearings that support the front drive shaft is lubricated. I'm 99% sure it is NOT from the differential oil. Pics to follow.
I have an M923, 1997 vintage, with a caterpillar engine and allison push button tranny. It was an experimental truck I bought from wehring. Coming back from a trip recently, my front left hub was WAY hot. We have pulled it apart, and although I think the hub bearings are greased, the spline...
I sure appreciate this feedback. I suspected the cylindrical fitting with a lock screw (bolt) just to the left of one of the oil fills might be a screen or whatever. That's coming out tomorrow, armed with this knowledge. Kerosene and toothbrush time. Thanks again Ike.

I purchased a 4.9 KW generator from a fellow member and don't know what I have. It runs great but I want to do an oil change. It is an onan generator and an Italian Yanmar one cylinder diesel with a pull cord and the compression relief lever on top of the engine. Data plate is obliterated...
Anyone ever replaced the front axle boot on an M923? Mine's torn, and I've burned my eyes out on the TM sticky and just can't find it. Right front, you peel it back and there's grease in there! Trying to get her up and running for Labor Day.

I can't speak for him, but we generally barbeque every night out here, especially after learning chicken has alot of antibiotics in it. Not that beef doesn't, but it's less.
Will be pulling my 24 foot gooseneck trailer from Houston west to at least Dryden, TX over Memorial Day weekend coming up. Will probably pull all the way to El Paso. Anything bound west as far as miscellaneous, small vehicles, etc.. will do. I can place, store and protect from elements, if...
I used Surplus Transport for a special project of mine, transporting a drill rig from Florida to Texas that had all kinds of issues attached to it. These guys did it timely, and they did it for reasonable $$. Thanks to Eric, the driver and his son (the strongest guy in the western...
