    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I drop my 2 girls off at school every Friday with mine.

    Block Heater Questions (8.3L)

    Same as above. They take hours, and it won't move the gauge. An 8.3 should crank right up in that temp though, I think you are just confirming if it works? Check if it is warm around it like said above. If not, unplug and measure the resistance across it. Make sure your extension cord is...

    Another "Don't Use Low-Reverse on 939 Series" Thread? Yes, But Fact Finding...

    Another "Don't Use Low-Reverse on 939 Series" Thread? Yes, But Fact Finding... The "Don't use low-reverse" on M939 series seems to really have a mixed bag of emotions and outcomes. What I'm trying to decipher is, are there any cases of the T-case breaking from low-reverse usage with the front...

    M925A2 to M932LA2 Conversion

    Rabbit's got the gun huh? I'm also wanting to hear 4x's results of this. Intercooler I bought had 4 holes in it. I had them TIG welded shut, just got it back. A lot of corrosion all over the outside of it, especially the tubes. Inside looks clean as the day it was new, I checked in...

    5 ton not holding fuel prime problem

    =====Threadjack===== Hey, tractors0130, today marks the 2nd anniversary of my heart valve replacement, of which the very first trip I took after getting back clearance to drive was to head down your way and buy my M925A2 from you! Survival present to self if I woke up after it. Thanks again...

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A1 Truck

    Nope. It won't look right. I want it to match perfectly, sit at the right height, same tires size, and be level when connected.

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A1 Truck

    Relax, I just thought of it today, and already have the donor truck sourced. I'm going to need a used 923 type cargo cover in camo. Negative Ghost-Rider on the alternator delivery trailer, nobody is going to want them at the $350 price level. I currently can't get it lower unless my work...

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A1 Truck

    No way. So I Google'd M923 trailer, and look what I found. Somebody that made what I wanted, on a model scale. Web site says he cut up on truck model to make the trailer. This is exactly the look I'm going for. I just personally don't like the look of a larger bed pulling a smaller bed.

    5 ton not holding fuel prime problem

    There are 2 hoses in this area to replace. One is from the tank to large filter (tank has hard lines for the first few feet), and the next is from the large filter to lift pump. It is a vacuum only system, so when they leak they suck air only and do not push fluid out. Mine was starting to do...

    Fried Alternator?

    I can do them now (not yet as a distributor), but the price is not cheap, would be $350 each because it is going through distributors. You'd be on the hook for shipping to you also, figure another $25 or such. Not cheap, but also not too terribly bad to correctly double the output with a brand...

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A1 Truck

    Good point. Maybe just remove the entire differential assembly "chunk", and drill a drain hole in the bottom of the diff housing, since the wheel bearings are sealed in each end of the hubs anyway (with grease and not gear oil). Could cover any openings with plates or leave them open I...

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A1 Truck

    Trailer ABS is not a show stopper at all, just an added bonus if worked. I thought your way also at first, but then once I remembered that the ABS system is only on the rear axles, and the control module located there also, it could be made to work stand alone if one wanted. Would probably...

    You are so correct. I suck. Question stands, nonetheless. Thanks for the feedback.

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A1 Truck

    M925A2 Trailer Made From M923A2 Truck I found the pic below and got all excited. It is an M35A2 pulling a trailer made from an M35 chassis, but it looks pretty good with fresh matching paint. I can get an M923A2 rearward of the cab with extended frame rails. The singles would allow it to...

    M923 Parking Brake Alarm/Buzzer Delete

    I had the same concern, but I simply placed tape over the alarm to reduce it's noise level, but I don't sit in the truck as long as your situation with the park brake on at idle.

    Fried Alternator?

    No problem. That is part of their development cycle. Plus 3 year warranty covering anything except physical damage and loose B+ connection (burnt B+ terminal). Sink it all you want. It won't actually work under water only due to the brush contact against the rotor slip rings, but as soon...

    Slave 24v to 12v conversion?

    Correct. Below is link and pic. I found a very handy area to mount it, since the cab corner has an impressed are that would be hard to replicate. My "slave cables" have a 500A NATO single pin connector on one end, and traditional jumper cable clamps on the other. I used fine strand welding...

    Fried Alternator?

    On here, simple, just pay a very reasonably small fee. It is securing the product from my work legitimately that take a pinch longer.
