This has come up here before . I'll see if i can find the link with the answer before Wes @simp5782 gets here and explains it in detail. I don't remember the details of the solution.

I make them. I'll send you a PM. Thanks

Charge each battery individually with a 12V charger if you have any doubts that they're all good. Or charge them all together with a 24V charger through the slave port if you're sure you don't have a bad one.

I'm chasing some stuff there on the 21st. If I win any of it, I'll be going to get it. If I go, I can pick your top up and drop it at the freight terminal or store it in KS until you make arrangements. I'm 500 miles away. Not going unless I win something.

Something welded from pipe. I'll update this later with a pic of redtruck's rear bumper. You'll want it to play nice with your tailgate. I like gimpy's idea of having it be removable.

Do you have a suggestion for a real tester?

I've got a couple of 12 year old Hawkers in my HMMWV. I thought I'd be replacing them this spring because they were acting weak last fall and they were flat dead when I went to start the HMMWV a couple weeks ago, despite the solargizer. A ran them through a resurrection cycle on my battery...

Offhand I don't recall. The difference is right at 20%.

I alter them to terminate into an Anderson connector instead of being hardwired, and then add a slave plug and cable terminated in an Anderson connector and add an Anderson connector to the alligator clips. This gives the ability to either charge batteries individually , or charge them all...

I've used them as silage trucks with a dump bed added and about 11k in the bed. Both the nh250 and the 8.3. Loaded like this they're very slow to accelerate up to speed. With the 14.00R20 super singles , cruising speed is going to be 55-65mph loaded. The axles and driveline components are...

Possibly it has been transplanted, but - 1) 1986 was M923A1 with the NH250 2) visibly the truck is an M923A1 as evidenced by the fuel tank, the front shackles, the lack of CTIS, the presence of super singles, and the front axle

Check to see if it has an 8.3. Looks to me like it'll have the NH250. For heavy and slow off road, I'd actually prefer the NHC250.

When you figure out which cables are missing let me know and I'll give you a quote for fabricating them. I've got reels of copper cable of all descriptions and a hydraulic crimper.

LOL! It happens. I was going to go $505 on it, a bite at a time. Would you have gone further? I'll probably be making a trip to Abilene some time in the next few weeks. I can grab it then and it's welcome to hang out in my barn until you get a chance to come get it.

Or he's already one of us and he'll find this thread. Or he'll be posting in the "transportation needs" thread and I'll end up picking it up for him. But yeah, I suspect we'll be seeing it again.

It was you or David, I don't remember which. The important thing is that the TM is in the TM forum.

I've towed a bunch of these thousands of miles from auctions. I had the brakes stick on one. Slamming it forward and backward resolved it. I usually drive a few miles and then feel up the bearings. I usually inflate the tires to 50psi at the first stop, also at the first opportunity.

We're in KS for the moment. If we're still here in late March I'll try to make the drive in the M998 and attend. Things I have to bring if there's any interest: Safes of all descriptions, from 100lb single drawer safes up through >1200lb GSA weapons containers. Locking mechanisms can be...
