Hello All- Need your advice on what tires you think would work the best on my M944-A1. Currently has the goodyear 14.00x20s but I must say- this truck almost gets stuck in soft sand in the flats- Heaven forbid ever trying to go up a hill - Truck is underpowered with the cummins 250 naturally...
just a few more things to do before we have photos taken-
plan on mounting this on a gun ring over cab
for those who do not know-- it is a dual mount that holds 2 -- MG42s- i am in the process of building them now-
approximately 2400 rounds per minute --- if everything goes to plan-- there...
thanks again you guys!!
I will post a full set of pictures as soon as possible-- its not quite done- but very close- we are currently working on loading with our tools and supplies and finishing the hood- trim and rubber seals to keep dust out-- but i will not forget to post i promise!!!
This has been a long long project and you guys have helped alot. Just wanted to say thank you very much and I have 1 more question-
On top of the hood are 2 latches- what belongs on top of the hood that these would fasten down?
I will post final pictures in a couple days once its out of my...
Stupid question but im leaving on a 400 mile trip in my M925 A2 tomorrow morning--
Upon general maintenance - I found both rear diff are low on oil. about 1 inch below the fill plug-- and there are no leaks present.
I have only 927 miles on this one and the military did a 98k frame off rebuild...
this hill is a little steeper than the video here-- the sand is soft under a gravel rocky top surface-- front tire drivers side was pulling when she stopped and just started hopping like any 4 x 4 does when its met its match-- I have had 4x4 s all my life -- usually when there is a locker in...
very disappointed in this beast-- Everything is brand new- runs perfect - and we decided yesterday was the day to explore a route we need to get thru if our roads are ever closed-- Offroad she was a champ- Im sure nothing except another one of these could keep up - goes straight thru anything-...
yes-- mine does the same thing-- but not consistently!! it will go back to charging 28 volts if i cycle the Battery
Switch- but not every time- intermittently
i have tried to open the 1020 page TSB on this truck 3 times now-- all it does is freeze my computer--
any other suggestions???
M925 A2 - everything brand new- military did a frame off - new cab - motor 8.3 turbo- trans - everything-
start up and volt gauge spikes
checked at batteries and im getting 37 volts
batteries brand new as well
Im pretty sure its voltage regulator- but figured I would ask?
while driving home-...
Thank you very much- yes it is there - and I have a 60 psi sender and a 120 psi gauge-- actual pressure hot is 25 idle - 70 full speed
As for the Air Brake problem-- Grimlins!!!! Put it back together and it operates normally!
Thanks to you guys who helped out-- much appreciated!!
So----- Nobody knows the answer to either of these questions? Or are they just bad questions??
I was hoping I would not have to climb around this beast in order to figure it out.
Thanks anyways Steel Soldiers!!
Yes I am aware of this. However- If the spring brake emergency control knob is pulled out as it should be-- when I release the Brake Lever - truck will not move till i push in the emergency brake control on dash- then the brakes release-
sure wish I could figure this out!!
can anyone shed some light on this weird problem?? ive switched hoses around- tried a good switch -- has to have something to do with the new cab being installed i would think??
