    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Installed searchlights on both front fenders, staying with the era of the truck. I like to make things very durable.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Your thoughts and prayers are very appreciated, I am a very private person but I have found this a very overwhelming situation to be in. All I can say is I know she is in a better place and she would be telling me to always do the right thing. I have seen how close this community is and it makes...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I could never part with my truck I only would like to add another one to my hobby. I have allot of ideas on what to improve on the old girl but the theme is to stay as close to origional as possible. Your truck sounds like another gem, it's hard to believe the military is letting them out the...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I have to confess I bought the bare bones console off one of my go to vendors known to this site, so I could add my own layout. The building I keep the truck in is heated and air conditioned so I am very blessed to have such a grand structure. It's nice to be able to use a mechanics trolly on...

    Lol yup that's my good luck charm given to me by my daughter and I promised her it would travel with me any where I go. The truck is the most fun I have ever had she is kept like a museum piece when she's parked and the best camper I have ever owned. The American M923a2 is an American legacy...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Finally got one of my compartments tidied up, I found a two drawer tool chest that fit through the opening and 500 bucks worth of mechanics tools. Now I can find everything quickly and in order, really makes a difference.

    Let's not forget the great mileage we get with such advanced aerodynamics starting with those beautiful fronts. :wink:

    I finally installed a anti-freeze filter on my M923A2, it was allot of fun and first time I tested it no leaks. I thought a picture would bring it to life, as well as any helpful hints or concerns are always appreciated. It makes me feel allot better, :clinto:

    I added some landing lights to the front of my truck, now I figured everyone has seen lights installed but I thought the location of the switch as well as a near duplicate of the switch kinda worked out nicely. Tell me what you think I purchased the switch at my local NAPA

    thank you I am always worried about making a mistake but I think with all the upgrades I want to do I agree that its own thread would be easier to track. Thank you very much for the feedback

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    You bet I have about 3/8" above the posts as well as the sheet for on top and the battery's are sitting on the industrial version of gel souls. The hard chunks of 1 1/2" plywood weren't offering much absorbency. All these awesome modifications were from searching the SS archives. I'm not...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Changed my 4 battery system over to a two battery system spent most of the day doing the fabricating don't want them bouncing around. I hope I don't have to remove the battery's anytime soon packing them up into the cab was fun, I've included a photo as boring as it may be but it does show a...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I finally installed my "hidden" battery isolation switch, and yes it was purchased from one of my favourite sponsors on this site. As well I installed locking door handles, but darn I failed on the installing the rubber cap thingy, lol. Next up my cooling filter just gathering all the parts now.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I want to purchase a couple of extra Air filters for my M923A2, and of course I am out of town when I discover these filters. Would anyone be so kind to post the dimensions of the filter, ie. Inside diameter, outside diameter, an length. its been an expensive week with all the stock piling of...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Both actually lol, I guess I have come to the realization I have gotten soft in my old age. The rubber button would be a great start mind you, I guess I could try buying a new pump then just use the rubber button off that. I am going to look at converting to the spin on filter conversion to...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Changed both fuel filters on my M923A2 what an endurance test, however I did get her running again and dare I say she pulls better up hills. Got a nasty blister on my hand because the rubber button was rotten. I don't suppose anyone knows where you can buy new ones ?. Between the TM's and this...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    That in my opinion is an excellent addiction, more of the younger generation need to get their hands dirty and learn how to fix and care for things, KUDOS to you and your daughter
