I have an M998 (rebuilt in 2005) with KDS smart start box. The wait light does not come on, fuel gauge isn't work but all other gauges seem to work fine. I can get it to start with starting fluid and it runs fine. I opened the box and see what appears to be a burned diode (see picture). I tested...
I recently purchased an M998 at the time I did not notice that the right rear spring is broken. How do I identify which spring it is? I am hoping to just replace the bad one. The rest of them all look fine. I did search the forums and couldn't find anything relevant.
Is there a way to identify...
Does anyone have a manual for the HEMTT that shows the fuel tank pickup tube? Its not in the parts manual for some reason. I suspect it may be broken. That or the check valve is bad but I don't see how the check valve would allow air in the system.
Also, does anyone know what the box is that...
The TM says I need to drain the cooling system and disconnect the transmission cooling lines to replace the oil pan gasket.
Mine had a pretty good leak I need to address. I was hoping it wasn't as involved.
Has anyone done one? If so can I get the oil pan out with draining the coolant?
Looking for camera mounting/power ideas.
I picked up a cheap backups camera on ebay for $50. It has the license plate style camera mount and a 7" display.
Has anyone hooked one up on an LMTV? I'm curious where you are pulling power from? The J95 plug? I want mine to have power whenever the...
It was listed as "The engine could not be started. The batteries are missing.". Has anyone else ever won one listed this way?
I'm hoping that it will start up with a fresh set of batteries.
If you read my previous posts my luck buying non-runners hasn't been that great. :)
Hopefully it will...
I have an Allison HT740 in a container.
If no one is headed this way do you know of a reasonable shipping company I could use? I have heard fastrack is not very reasonable.
EUC is required so I have no idea when it will be released. Hoping to have a few options and backup plans just in case...
Do any HEMTT owners have a picture of the wires on the HIGH IDLE solenoid?
I think mine is wired wrong and the manuals aren't clear.
On mine there are 2 wires that connect to the neutral safety switch One goes to the solenoid and the other to ground.
I do see where the solenoid is supposed...
Does anyone know what the HEMTT battery wiring should be? There are 2 10gauge wires a positive and a negative but I don't know if they are 12 or 24 volt?
Thanks
Does anyone know what this "EUC sent" EUC status means? That was updated today. Does that mean that it was sent to MI or sent to me?
They told me it was sent to MI 3 weeks ago.
Thanks

Anyone know if they will assist in loading? Its says in the auction that the truck could not be started. Will they let me try and get it running?
I really wasn't expecting to win it. Never expected it to go so cheap.
As long as there is no major issues with the engine/drivetrain I think I did...
I was going over my 931 today. Checking all of the fluids and greasing everything. The front spring shackles didn't want to take any grease. Either they are rusted bad or maybe the fittings are bad.
Then I tried greasing the short shaft between the trans and the transfer case. I can't see how I...
Anyone ever done it? I've seen many threads about bobbing or adding a cargo bed and such but I can find anything converting to a dump?
I was wondering what kind/size dump body. What you used for hydraulics? Electric or PTO?? Ballpark cost for the parts?
I was originally planning on keeping...
The soft top on my M931 not attached to the plastic channel. It looks like all of the stitching let loose. At first I though it just wasn't in the channel but on further inspection I could see the stitching was all ripped. Otherwise the top looks to be in excellent condition.
Is it worth...
Does anyone have a picture a 2 battery conversion?
I think most if not all of the batteries in the M931 I just had delivered are shot. Its a shame they look brand new. Looks like they were replaced and just sat for whos knows how long.
I was hoping to replace it with 2 large tractor or truck...
