I am trying to find a post where a member took a 5 ton bed and put it on a frame made from 2 m105 trailer frames. I have my frames done to do the same thing however would like to see how they did some things. Yes, I used the search bar and no after over an hour now I have not found it. A...

I want to add a pyrometer to my truck. I would like some advise on what unit to buy. Thanks in advance for the assistance.

I recently had to sell my 5 ton truck, and had to go back on a deal on a m37 because I had to have a shoulder reworked again. I was at a Karis adoption charity event and my best buddy was there. I had given him my first deuce in 2011. He got married and moved to the big city a year later. We...

Combat32 sold me his M37 a.k.a. Rusty. It runs and has a fair body on it. I will be doing a frame off restore on it. I have wanted a M37 for a long time. I need a few parts but I bet I will be able to find them. I will be doing a cucv axle swap and a few more upgrades. I'm thankful to find...

This may have been covered, so if this is a duplicate post mods please delete. I cut about 6 inches of the stock air filter housing out of the interior of the front (toward the engine) where it doesn't allow air to flow. So that increased the ability of the air filter to intake air without...

My son and I went on a 25 hour trip to and from Wreckerman's on Saturday to recover a hardtop I bought from him. We strapped it to the top of his honda. Great trip. He is leaving for Navy basic in January so I was glad to get the time with him. We got to see some of wreckerman's green iron and...

I have a dump bed on my m923A0. I would like to install the hydraulic parts from a m925 to replace my electric pump on my truck, which is slow and has now broke twice. Has anyone done this? Is there a thread that I am missing? And where might I find said parts to do such an install? Thanks in...

Hey all I wanted to take the time to thank Andyrv6av8r for the post he put in the thread "better way to do a fuel filter change on a cummins 250." I used a lawn sprayer to do what he did with an air compressor. see attached pice. the entire process took less than 25 minutes. I was able to...

Much like many other members here my M923 ABS light was on constantly. I had been checking the system and reading the TM's. I found the 2B cable was disconnected. After several attempts to get it to snap together it finally clicked together. So I went through the entire system and cleaned and...

I am In the 5 ton family now. I got a pretty sweet M923A1 today. Went for a nice spin and got to know the truck a bit. It shifts out nice (a lot like a M985 I drove when I was in 6/27). It fired up even though it was below 32 with no problem. GREAT BREAKS!!! I got to get into the -10 and -20...

Well its not od green or tan (yet) but i picked this up super cheap. I have replaced all the breaks, switched to a 258 intake and exhaust manifold and a motorcraft 2100 carb, fixed the electrical, and lifted the rear and soon to lift the front. I will be switching it over to right hand drive...

It seems to me that the m52a2 and the other multifuels are very well suited for conversion to a 2 tank WVO system. In the case of the M52a2 it already has the 2 tanks and the ability to burn many different fuels. So, having said that if you heated tank #2, upgraded the filters to accomidate...

One of the many things i do is serve as the childrens pastor at church. We are having a kids fest (like a mothers day out) i need 2 parachutes. One for games and one for shade. a cargo parachute would be great for the shade however i cant find one here close. At the local army surplus i...

I recently gave my 1971 M35A2 to my business partner and best buddy. he had helped me on countless different projects and my wife and I had sold our land and had no place to keep it. so yes i gave it to him. title and all. well not long after that one of the members here on SS i had gotten to...

I am thinking of perchasing a mep-003 to run a miller 875 auto plasma cutter and a compressor to make a self contained unit on a 101 trailer or somthing in that range. i spent 8 years in the military and never once did i have to deal with any gen sets. we had a 52d for that. the max amprage on...
