    (Solved) M923A2 Right rear brakes grabbing

    I drove my 5 ton to pick up my spare and on the way my brakes on the right rear axles kept "grabbing" to the point it would smoke my brakes. (I was only going three miles from the house and the shop is the first turn around). Coming home, it did it a couple times in the first mile then stopped...

    5 Ton wheel tire combo to have best scrub radius/track width match with 16.00 tires.

    Yeah, that was the first thing I thought, then doubted myself and went and checked my own 5 ton with combat rims and AT3s.

    How to- MRAP Eyecon Light kit install on M923A2

    They sell on eBay for up to 1200.00 They are HID lights. I'm not familiar with the Ibis Tek lights. Yes. The control panel has two joysticks for each of them to be operated independently. Not sure of the amp draw. I'll check the book.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Since I went to the 16R20s, my spare will no longer fit in the spare carrier, so in order to facilitate getting it into and out of the bed, I added a 1,000lb hoist.

    Operation: Ethel. Kendelrios M37 (re)build thread

    OK, finally made some headway on the old girl. I was fighting the front bed bolts because I didn't have a "S" wrench to fit in there, so being as it was late in the day to drive to town to start looking for tools, I decided to go ahead and bust the cab loose. No pics of that process as I got...
