Do you feel confident about that? In other words, would you be willing to send me your designated path so I could alert the state police in your area to watch for you? I would never do that. But, the point is made. There is no way you would chance your beliefs about driving a truck home on...
There is only one answer. Get tags and insurance. Find a state that will let you drive home without tags and insurance and let us know where that is. It does not exist. Could you have an understanding LEO with the paper trail that Kenny mentioned above...sure. However, there is no...
As someone above said, it is probably a wheel seal. You can check this by slopping soapy water all over the rim. Look for bubbles! With that said, I have never had a truck with working CTIS...at least that worked for very long. To bypass it, simply disconnect the wiring harness from the...
I have a suggestion. We need to move this event around the state. I am not suggesting this for me as I may or may not come. However, I have heard from several past attendees that they have stopped coming because the location is so far away. I think we should rotate it from Eldersburg to...
Convert your truck to an M925 by adding a winch...find a blank dataplate (they are around)...and re-stamp it with your original VIN. The only real problem...that 99.9% of people won't notice...is your VIN will start with C523...instead of C525 for the w/w winch dropside cargo. MAKE SURE you...
Be VERY careful about trying to export unless you have an export license. I realize these trucks (the M939s...for some really strange reason) are not EUC items. Still, be careful.
PM if you'd like. I will give you my cell number. I have owned a number of these trucks as far back as 2001. I have probably experienced most everything you can find on the M939 series trucks. They used to be my favorite until everyone and their brother got one. Not trying to sound...
It is scary what they consider rebuilt. The RRAD trucks have a sticker on the driver's door that says something like "WE REBUILD THE TRUCKS LIKE OUR LIVES DEPEND ON IT BECAUSE THEIRS DO." Not sure that is true is all I'm saying. I have yet to find a rebuilt truck without flaws. While that was...
Can you make money parting a truck out? Yes. However, most of this is not like handling gold. You will almost certainly sit on the bulky stuff that you want to sell. Hoods, beds, cabs...that stuff is going to sit. You'll find that guys grab up the trinkets quickly and the carcass is left...
That is a rebuilt truck for sure! Now, exactly what a "rebuild" entails is up for debate. I have had trucks with new motors, rebuilt motors, original motors that were repainted...and the same for t-cases and transmissions. Most have new wiring, some have new gauges (although many of the RRAD...
Did you turn the lights on? Not trying to be a smart a$$, but there is a three lever switch that you need to utilize to turn the lights on. Does the truck have a push button light switch (I guess I should have asked that first)? If so, it could be bad or grounded incorrectly. Check your...
I believe the fording kit also included stuff to pressurize the bell housing and other things. I don't have one on any current trucks so I can't check, but that is my recollection from my old M817 with a fording kit.
