Going to try to make a day run from Big Bear Saturday, wish I could stay but have a bunch o my plate trying to get the '71 Bronco rock crawler ready to head to Moab on Thursday for 2 weeks of extreme rock crawlin' , gotta have your S#*T together there, especially in a 44 year old Bronco :deadhorse:
OK you pretty much confirmed what I was thinking that it's the POS wire terminal, the other really small wire is for A/C from what I saw on a TM the alternator company sent me,
Thanks so much or all of the reply's time to get it back on the road before diesel goes up any more here in CA :mad:
Well that's what my burnt up 1 looked like, then I got a rebuilt and it burnt the stator after a year and I sent it back to Florida for warranty with the a wire hooked to what I think was the 1/4x20 post to the left next to the pig tail wire in your pic but it didn't come back with that wire...
OK guys, I had to send my alternatror back for warranty and didn't take a pic of the wires under the little cover that the weather tight pig tail comes out of. There are to other posts that are under that cover 1 is a 1/4X 20 and the other is a 10X24 and there is a wire that comes up by the...
I'll put it on the calendar since I haven't had to report to a boss ( other than the wife that is ) for 15 years and the wife after 40 years is glad to help me pack :p Whats the best off ramp out of Barstool ?? I'll be coming from Big Bear
Cool videos, and quite a gathering of different rigs to help. Don't think I'll be ready to play in mud this weekend, have to replace right front steering knuckle boot and don't want to fill it with mud and don't thin I'll have time to fix it with COLD weather starting tonight. I have a nice shop...
I did mine a couple months ago ( maybe 2 or 300 miles) and it was a pain and yea it's easier with more than 2 hands, but now it's torn again and I'm not sure why any ideas out there about that. I know for sure it seated right and new wire clamp. Thinking it might be that the steering stop bolt...
Ok thanks, all I had heard is that you could blow the torque converter and that really didn't make much sense as the converter drives the tranny in either direction
OOOOPS I don't have a winch on mine but sure wish I did, there was a 923A2 next to mine in Barstool when I went there to do a prior inspection but unfortunately it wasn't part of that auction vent. I've looked at a Warn 24 volt 20,000 pound unit but it's a bit pricey. Got a question that I...
Wish I had known about this event as I live in Big Bear and know ALL the roads up here large enough for our trucks and also volunteer with the Forest Service as the coordinator for the Off Highway Vehicle Volunteer program and spend 3 to 5 days a week on the dirt roads up here, so if anybody...
Do you guys do this on a regular basis, I live in Big Bear and have an M932A2 and would love to hang out with other Big Tuck lovers , or maybe get you guys can come to Big Bear when we get some real snow, I know ALL of the roads here big enough for our trucks :lol:
Thanks, I think you have a good idea on not filling it with grease, it can only lead to blowing the boot again. I think that sure it needs grease but not t extreme, hopefully what packing I did when installing the new boot will be enough. Maybe I'll pull both plugs and stick something like a zip...
Just changed the right front boot today and it went fairly well, but looking at the TM's for lubricating it shows vol 5 WP 0820 and for the life of me I can't figure out what and how much lubricant to put in there. It does show the 2 plugs to put something in but not what to put in there and how...
I was unable to find a VIN number on the driver side frame rail just above the front axle, and here in Ca I had to take the truck to the CHP to get it VIN verified and the CHP officer was cool and just used the VIN on the dash placard to do the VIN verification and signed it off checking a box...
Al, do you have a a link to the TM's for this project as I have a bad boot on the front passenger side, picked up a new zippered boot from Erik's Military the other day and will change it when it warms up a bit, thanks
Thanks so much for passing this along. I had the hub seals and went after replacing them the other day only to find out that the hub seals weren't the issue, brake backing plate was dry and clean, but there's grease coming out from the back side of the backing plate by the steering knuckle ...
Reading this post from 2012 I'm looking for the same front axle seals for a 923a-2 but am having a hard time finding em, so any and all help would be greatly appreciated
