    Is there a problem using smaller tires on these 20" wheels? The ctis does not need to be hooked up. Or, depending on the lug pattern, different wheels. I imagine back spacing may be an issue but are there alternatives you guys may know about. Yes, it is buying tires I won't leave on the...

    Yeah, it has been hectic and kind of spotty on some of the details. When I get home I will flesh this trip out a bit. The short, I had a front tire that was unusable after 10 hours of driving due to a large buldge on the sidewall due to dry rot checking. I had a spare for the first tire issue...

    The damper was definitely between the drive shaft and front rear axle. I was watching just about everything they did, out of curiosity. I am glad I did. There was not a damper between the front drive shaft and front steering axle..just FYI. I downloaded most of the TMs onto my iPad and have...

    Yes, they are responsible and are accepting the responsibility. Which is nice.

    So yes, it is important. Thanks. This has not gone well. I mean, mechanically the truck is fine. The tires suck. My spare however is an XZL and brand new. It is fine. The wheel of the second blowout I think is okay. I will know more tomorrow. The three remaining tires are heavily...

    My phone was dead. No where to charge in the 934. My extra battery is dead as well. I am in a hotel now so yippy, I can charge it now. I hate auto correct at times. Like when I am tired. Artisan, THAT is it. That is what went shooting across the highway into a giant canyon. The wrecker...

    I am now stuck in Glendive, Montana. The towing company lost a part off the front rear axle. There is a spacer or balancer between the drive shaft and where it connects to the axle. It is round and larger than the pto connection. Is that important? What is it? And finally, how much does...

    Thanks Karl, I will if needed. The CTIS is working. It wasn't initially. When it started working is when that heavy damage was really exposed. Those tires iin the EBay link are the 50% checked lug ones I may pickup. I talked to Steve the owner. Nice guy and has several that may be okay...

    Thanks I didn't know what other options I had yet. I didn't get around to that. Excellent help there. I will go online and search for similar sized and rated tires as well just for options I may have access to.

    I posted the tire inquiry on its own just because it is time sensitive. The rest will be on the departure thread I started Wednesday.

    Well, I won the M934A2 I was bidding on!!

    The auction went into extension four times but I won it. I got it at, right about, the average selling price for this type of truck. Now comes the long drive there and back. I have a co-driver and someone else who is good with working on vehicles. I hope we don't need the experience but I am...

    5 Ton Multifuel Fording Kit and the M939 Series trucks

    Yep, Floridianson, I have read that thread and many others to include the links below that thread. Some of the videos are just down right cool. However, none of those threads, or others that I have found, cover the multifuel to M934 question. At least not to my limited knowledge. The kit I...

    5 Ton Multifuel Fording Kit and the M939 Series trucks

    Will the 5 Ton Multi-fuel fording kit fit the M939 series trucks? Specifically, the M934A2. If not, do you think it would be that hard to make it fit? I have never even seen a vehicle with a fording kit while in the military so I have no experience with them. However, I do have a lot of...
