Yes a level wind can be added to an A2. It sure makes you wonder what the logic of omitting the level wind was for as they really enhance various angle pulls and recovering the cable.

Nope, the M936A1's were the last ones spec'd with a "heavy duty" front level wind winch. The M936A2's were spec'd with a "medium duty" front winch w/o level wind. If you check out the winch tags on the A1's and A2's you will see the heavy duty and medium duty tags. Don't know the why as the...

Yes, its inline with the wet tank. My truck's air pressure suddenly ran amok building from 120psi and running up towards 150psi. I immediately pumped the brakes down to 90psi and it began running up again. Being as I was only 2 miles from home, I started that way and pumped the brakes down when...

Albert, I just had the same thing occur to my M931A2. It was the ST-3 safety valve. Google Velvac ST-3 safety valve, they are about $15.00 at a truck parts house. I thought it was my air dryer but its this valve inline to the dryer that popped off and blew steadily. Once replaced, back operating...

I have a 2011 RRAD rebuilt 1989 M923A1. The motor was painted black and appears to be a NOS motor with a bright data tag 30Sept2011. Much of the truck has brand new parts to include a NOS cab as well.

Try this one https://info.publicintelligence.net/USArmy-MRAP.pdf start around page #86 and also you'll find the FMTV towbar starting at page #96

Chris, nice photos of the towbar chain clamp connection. Just as an FYI, we learned the hard way not to use the combination pintel/ball hitch trailer hitch. There is way too much slop on the connection and you'll get a lot of "slamming" while braking as the towbar rides up within the connection...

I have a deuce NOS complete heater unit, box, fan, heather core the works in the original box, $200 plus shipping. PM if interested.

I think the remedy to alleviate the voltage regulator issues on the 24V MV OEM alternators is the Delco Remy SI 24V alternator modification. There are a number of threads here on the modification. A one wire hook up and an aftermarket pulley on the Delco to spin it faster is simply years...

Thanks Munchies, I'll chat up Jesse. It's nice to see that this revised thread is still helping guys out and the procedures resulted in success for some guys :0). We fired up the wrecker today and loaded up two NOS MT654CR trannys in their steel shipping crates onto a M116A3 flatbed trailer...

We're in a similar situation brother. I also had the same cable with the end cut off. My panel on my M146 only services 110V interior ceiling lighting and 110V plug receptacles at 4' intervals all along the top of the walls. I used a 30 amp RV twist-lock plug end. Not many generators will...

Thanks brother. That's my next step or possibly do the Delco Remy SI alternator modification. I've been a motor head since I've been a kid, I've just never seen an alternator voltage regulator "linger" like this before. They're either OK or bad...:0(

I've been having inconsistent voltage spiking issues on my M936A1. Not having a volt meter, I found an excuse on spending $150 on a Fluke meter, nice to have something broken as an excuse to buy a nice tool! Anyway, after charging each of my Hawker AGM batteries independently and testing each...

What's the cost of that puppy? Like the concept :0)

Yup, that would be a "bisquit", very rare and its what you need to hook up an Ibis Tek towbar as intended to the front shackles. Thanks Dave, saved me from rolling out to my container and moving 2K pounds of stuff :0)

I have a pair of "bisquits" that i have in my storage container. I should be getting out to it this week and will get some photos of them. I lucked out on an e...y auction last year and scored them. amgeneral172 has done a nice job of fabricating an alternative to the OEM bisquit though!

Yes, you need a set of what are called "biscuits" to connect to the shackles. They are rare as hens teeth.

Thanks Rayzer, mine also came with NOS NDT 9:00X20's but hooked up to my M932A2 its at a pretty significant rake. I'd like to get 14RX20s under it. I have a bunch of NOS Goodyear 11RX20s but they only give me 3" of lift over the 900's. The NOS BUDD axle will give me spring brakes too under the...

Nice brother! Hey I just scored a NOS single axle with BUDD hubs. Can't make up my mind whether to mod my M146 axle or Mr my Calif wheel converter dolly yet. Didn't you dual out your M146? If so with what wheels and sized tires? Thanks dude!
