I have been looking but not finding a definitive answer plus it's cold and raining out so I'm not inclined to go lay under the truck. I have a 1986 AM General M925 with a hydraulic front winch powered from a pto on the allison auto trans. I need to know the gpm of the hydraulic pump for the...
I bought an M1078 from a guy three hours away for my towing business. I may have a bit of an unfair advantage owning my own tow truck and I own a bobbed M925 but I am new to these trucks and I researched here how to pull the axles so I could tow mine home. The information made it a breeze. I...
Very easy, at least mine were. pulled them out then towed my 1078 three and a half hours home, popped them right back in, topped of differential oil and good to go.
So I located an M1078 and the gentleman I purchased it from told me it had a bad fan clutch and even included a new one in the deal. My question is before I go through the labor of installing it I want to make sure everything that makes it work is functioning. I've had a few old military trucks...
I am looking at buying a 1078 truck, not a newb with military trucks I've had several 9 series 5 tons but this is my first foray into the LMTV arena. I really want one with a winch but it seems there are more available without them. I have been looking and it seems there is a chelsea pto...
Chess I really need some info on those cab swaps, especially yours with the international cab since those are plentiful. Check your PMs. If nothing else maybe put me in touch with the guy that built them for you.
Don't know if this has ever been asked but I'm sure someone has tried it. I want to mount a commercial truck cab to my 5 ton bobbed wrecker. The military truck cab has gotten in bad shape and part of it is because it's not really water tight. I'm thinking of like an older Topkick or maybe like...
It doesn't act neutered one bit when I'm towing 3500 Dodge dualies off the beach with it. I have another 925 and on the beach this one pulls better than the 6x6.

We have been using it for the last four years doing off-road recovery work on the beaches and Southeastern North Carolina. These pictures are after a recent refurb and new paint job. The wheel lift has to stick out that far because it's the only way to get it to clear the rear axle. It was...
This is Brutus my custom built 5 ton off road recovery wrecker. It has the name Sgt. Hicks on the passenger front window. Can anyone tell me who he would have been in relation to the vehicle. I've seen others with different names on each side but I seem to get a different story from everyone I...
Hey everyone, I have a 925 series truck I am having a time with. I replaced the "brain Box" a while back, and have since replaced the alternator and recently the starter. I was trying to reinstall the starter outside in the sark and got one of the wires crossed and fried it before I could get it...
