    Simp's M923 Big Cam Repower

    He’ll be behind me. 4X, great to hear from you, how is the charge air cooler? Hey, I need some 16” XZL’s also, Mr Biscuits.

    M925a2 Power Surge

    Not for sale. I'll do all the work even just to beat Simp's overweight and slow trans shifting truck.

    Cute guys. Lots of excuses, but none of them valid. Bring it...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Unloaded junk out of the bed. Cleaned the worn out 14.00's, re-sprayed the rims flat black, and hope to get the LWS mounted before Woodward Dream Cruise next weekend (the largest single day car event in the world). Making clip-on aircraft seatbelts for the troop seats to stay legal so I don't...

    Remember in Ghostbusters when the possessed chick was the gatekeeper and the nerdy guy was the keymaster? Zule was in the fridge.....

    Dog Bones

    That’s the price of a 20 ton press to do the job, torque rods are not cheap to ship, does that include the cost of new end links, and this should be in the classifieds. U bolts of this type are typically bent to shape by local heavy duty spring shops.

    CTIS Brake Leak M923A2 HELP

    OK, it is brake related, no need to pull the brake drum or hub. Here is how it works, and this will make sense to you and him: Park brake: Opposite of what people think. Uses air pressure to "release" it. No air to it, (parking brake lever on) and it is "on", forcing the brakes on with...

    M923A1 with 4 six volt

    Probably thought it is 6v battery because of 6 fill caps, common occurrence. But, each cell generates 2 volts.

    CTIS Brake Leak M923A2 HELP

    A few minutes of proper diagnostics will save you a ton of un-necessary work. Yes, the CTIS has 2 air seals within the hub. Disconnect the CTIS power plug on the control head and it should stop that problem, if that is it. Would only need to be fixed if you want CTIS operational. But, you...

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    tobyS, I have several compact external 24V solenoids that are issued with our gear reduction starters (mounted directly to them). If you wanted to simply eliminate the starter solenoid in the PCB, you would mount this relay on your starter or elsewhere, and then go direct from dash switch to...

    Dog Bones

    I did my uppers (all 6 bones, actually) in place without removing bed, tires, or spring U bolts, M925a2. Made a tool from an "offset striking wrench", then pulled this wrench handle rearward with another vehicle and tow strap since it had a short handle and was in a confined space. Worked...

    CTIS Brake Leak M923A2 HELP

    Sounds like you just have a ruptured service brake diaphragm. There is no such thing as a CTIS brake. A ruptured service brake diaphragm will allow air to travel down the push rod tube and into the drum. Easy and low cost fix, don't need to pull the brake drum, but study up well on how...

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    Yours may be neutral safety switch. Try going in and out of neutral next time it does it?

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    On/off 5 times and front tire a$$ rash are awesome posts! Plus, not being able to add, means you just made the friend list.

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    How do you have > $300 into it? Did you stop by the strip club on the way to get the solenoids?

    Ever see inside the Protective Control Box?

    PCB’s with a circuit board have starter re-engagement protection, they prohibit the starter to be engaged if the engine is already running. This is typically monitored via an AC output from the alternator or oil pressure signal. Best PCB jumper is a dead PCB box. Cut the connector out, and...

    7th times the charm?

    Welcome. Fun to see toys stay in the family, and meet new friends.

    Highway speed of 5ton

    Just checking in on this old dog. 67mph GPS verified, bone stock M925a2 @ factory governed 2150rpm on 14.00’s. Could easily exceed 70mph with the Pac Brake 5.9L governor spring kit and a few loosening turns of the fuel rack travel limiting nut.

    M916A0 (AMi) and spicer 1750 aux transmission

    Can you switch to a regular manual transmission that has a lower OD, or double OD? I’m not familiar with your truck drivetrain config, but modern OTR trucks do what you want, unsure of their axle ratio vs yours.
