    Possibly retro-verting M923 from ABS to NON-ABS

    Abs is your friend. All air brake components are civy items made by haldex and easily found at napa or HD stores. After finding problem, I would recommend changing filter on dryer. Decaissant is probably shot.

    Looking for specifications axis M101 A3 3/4

    I know there are 2 major surplus dealers in Europe but Guy would be your guide in Europe. I would check ebay but do not know how to search Europe. There is this listing on ebay here with a different part number. I suspect it is for the m101a1 and the length is the difference. Probably longer as...

    Looking for specifications axis M101 A3 3/4

    Those are the numbers stamped for the bearing and race set. Very common and not special. I cant imagine what eastern would want for international shipping as they are already outrageous on domestic shipping. Make sure you get a quote upfront. Ymmv

    Power Steering Fluid for M934

    Oe is 10w plain oil. Power stg fluid is 10w but has specific additives for anti foaming and anti wear on pump in it. I would recommend power stg oil sold anywhere and will mix with 10w with no problems. Plain 10w will be difficult to find as not commonly stocked. Ymmv

    Govplannet m1123 Barstow rebuild SF97 question

    I think you are going to have an interesting time with this unit. I believe they will default to the data plate and you are correct as I did not see a clear picture to see what date it has. Looks like an original data plate and a reset data plate. Not sure where you live, but I suspect you will...

    Govplannet m1123 Barstow rebuild SF97 question

    The Sf97 will have the date GP listed it even if it is wrong. They likely used the data plate date. GP are the ones who will print the sf97 as they are provided the blanks. What did the listing say? FWIW, it will be nearly impossible to get someone there to fix it or give a hoot in getting it...

    Grabbing brakes

    ABS working or not should not cause the grabbing/pulling. Wes is right of another issue possibly that the brake shoes can rust to the drum with little use. Very common on the tractors since they are totally exposed most of the time.

    Grabbing brakes

    The abs has a mini ato fuse in the wiring harness under the dash towards the middle if i recall correctly.

    Got all my M35A2 LED lights working....for a little bit. Anyone worked on LED's with success?

    Due to the fact you are having issues at the front and rear, I don't think the LED is the problem as that would mean multiple fixtures giving you trouble. Troubleshoot your light switch, flasher, grounds, wiring etc. There is another gremlin you are chasing in my opinion that is not the lights...

    Re-sale of a EUC vehicle question

    This & BKubu practice is what I also have them sign and give them a copy. Many trailers used to have EUC and I had the owner sign the acknowledgment and gave them a copy. Not sure a m101a1 or m105 involves national security but Uncle can be a strange dude. HMMWV more likely to be looked at to...

    Looking for specifications axis M101 A3 3/4

    The wheel bearings are common civilian parts and they should be available to you over there also at an auto parts store. Do they still have the numbers that can be read? If so they should be able to cross reference. If not. Let met know and I will post. The other 2 items are military specific...

    Looking for specifications axis M101 A3 3/4

    There is supposed to be a rubber block bushing on the springs with a u clamp that limits travel in case of bottoming out. They are difficult to find if the rubber is damaged.

    Top bolt on Alternator sheared off

    Is that the correct mount for that delco?

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    James, If it happens to be, shout out and maybe we can do lunch while you are passing through the big easy.

    Looking for specifications axis M101 A3 3/4

    Welcome to Steel Soldiers and a good looking trailer ! A3 trailer has a slightly higher weight capacity than a A2. Max weight is 3160lbs on that axle. The reality is that is probably underrated and can handle more. I have put more than that in a2 and absolutely no problem in a 4 hour ride...

    Mounted my spare on my M101a2

    The early m101's had many mount the tire just like that from an inbed m37 mount.

    Add 7 blade /4 pin receptacle to M939

    Best way is to use military Y's and the oe connectors to maintain your wiring intergrity and waterproofing instead of splicing. Many vendors sell the y's and wiring tid bits that advertise here or epay...

    M1061 modifications

    You are wise to beef up the jack. Mine had 2 pins/handles totally trashed. I suspect the trailer was moved with the jacks still down but who knows if that was military or the GSA folks where I got it.....

    M101A3 Upgrades

    Common civy utility and boat trailer 8 bolt. Any 8 bolt from 70-early 90's non metric chevy , Ford, or dodge 3/4 ton pick up. Center hole does not matter as these are lug centric. Easy to find at junk yards.

    New HMMWV initial service

    The fuel filter & green water separator is hmmwv military specific. All others are common auto parts store items. Seems very pricey to me.
