Todd is a member here. A great guy and he has some really cool green iron.
He let my son Kyle take one of the tracks for a spin. I got a lot of "cool Dad" points for that.
He's going to try to get some of them over to the 2014 GA Rally.
When I swapped out the axle on my M923 I plugged the holes on the axles with fittings I got from a hydraulic shop. I plugged the line that went from the box on the frame and called it good. The other two axles are still plumbed but I'll disconnect and plug them them as I get to it.
There are two engines in the 900 series. The 250 Cummins in the older trucks and the 8.3 Cummins in the A3 trucks (usually identified by HARSCO/BMY designators). Parts are different for the two.
Am I riff or raff...........I can never keep that straight.
I still have some 2013 GA Rally T-shirts "big boy" sizes left. Long and short sleeve. Should have posted them as stocking stuffers.
Since I bought the M927A2 I have come to appreciate the 8.3 Cummins and the Allison automatic. I have since added an M923A2 to the stable which may or may not end up as a parts truck (depends on if I want to swap out a transfer case). I have owned a 5 ton wrecker and a 5 ton multi-fuel tractor...

The BUFF is an amazing aircraft.
I think I remember reading that one of the pilots flew the same aircraft his grandfather flew.
Make sure you have the right size jumper cables. Little cheap ones won't make it. I have a set made of welding cable and I wouldn't use anything smaller.
I was pulling small stumps with a M936 and broke a big log chain. Unless it is a very small stump I'd either pay someone to grind the stump out or dig it out with a backhoe or trackhoe. If you do elect to pull it put a few tons of ballast in the rear.
Very nice. I have two like that. One is configured like yours (storage and a small workbench) and never moves. The other is my show/rally trailer. It has made 5 trips to the GA Rally and has creature comforts up front and storage in the back. It hauls the Mess Hall tent for the Rally. I also...
