ARYankee, is that the one from Shelby? Someone got a real deal on the one they had for sale!!!!!!

I have a 932 but when I drove it home I was still on uncle sam's diesel, I am picking up a couple of hard tops for my 939 series trucks this weekend I may have a chance to recheck the MPG!

I drove the distance from Hooks to my cabin about 186 miles in one shot, I used a paint stir stick for a measure. I am amazed how well it drives, I hope my 932 does as well, i have new shoes for it!

Picked up my "new" 923A1 at Hooks, TX, pulled PMs and finally got it out of low range and started home. The truck just came out of rebuild with only 36 hours on it. On the trip home I drove about 55 mph, when I checked the mileage I came up with 11.2 miles per gallon! Is this reasonable? I...

I just picked up a similar truck, and the alternator on it was bad as well, I have it at a local shop who rebuilds them $109.

Winch truck nice find, what is the dial in the third to last photo?

CSM Davis down in Mississippi just scrapped out a half dozen wreckers, he may have the IP you are looking for.

Very Nice!!!

PM me.

I was down at Jeff's place a couple of months ago for some parts for my 932, most of his big stuff went to the crusher, I need to give him a call on a top, I am from North Mississippi, but even from my parents house it is another 5 hours drive to his. James

Bret: I appreciate the info. Did you end up with a truck with a hard top? I now have two 900 series one with a ragged soft top and one with no top at all! Any sources local for a hard top?

Have you got any photos of the damage, I want to carry any spare parts I may need with me, I have someone who may be able to do an inspections since I don't plan on picking it up until the 21st. I don't want to burn up more than one day of vacation if possible, wife already doesn't like the...

With brake lights and assorted solenoids surly with four fully charged batteries I can drive a pretty good distance with the little draw they would have, and you bet I am going to replace the belts, this is just a what if. I am trying to not have to take my 932 down there to tow bar it home!

I have a M923A1 to pick up at Hooks, the generator belts are laying on the cab floor, maybe just laying there or the generator may be locked up? If I put in four new batteries can I make the 200 mile trip home in daylight? How much does the truck depend on the batteries after it is started, I...

Why pull the front drive shaft, if the hubs are unlocked does the front shaft turn?

Well dropping the rear drive shaft is no problem, a forestry forklift took care of the shaft, he has both ends of the shaft but that is it! I am getting the truck for $1300 so some imperfections are allowed! I plan on staying off the interstate as well 55 -60 will work just fine!

Crash_AF; When you say highway speeds, I was planning on towing about 55 for my comfort and not to push the drive train too hard?

On the 1008 is the engine or the differentials the limiting factor on how fast you can travel? I tend to drive about 50mph in mine sometimes 55 if I don't pay attention, but some talk of 60 and 65?

I just got a really great deal on a M1008, now I need to tow bar it home. I have read the TM, anyone have any practical experience with towing, I have to pull it about 300 miles. I am going to pull the drive shafts,how does it track, do I need to tie off the steering wheel, etc? James NEVER...

I will make it, 65 miles almost in my back yard!
