    M925A2 to M932LA2 Conversion

    I had to relocate the power steering cooler. I moved and mounted it into the void in the hood behind the grill. I also had to reroute the hoses make a hole and sleeve the lower support. I also got the hood back on, changed tires to XZL's, the front wheels are new and have less back spacing...

    M129a2c from Eglin AFB FL to GA rally Union point

    Thank you very much for the offer but I wouldn't want you to pull it on a dolly because of how heavy it is and I don't know if the brakes are working. Thank you very much for the offer though. Depending on how far you are from there if I have any issues I may still contact you...!

    M129a2c from Eglin AFB FL to GA rally Union point

    I purchased a van trailer today. I am planning on going to pick it up myself but, I figured I would throw it out there to see if someone is coming to the Georgia rally from Florida and has the capability to pull the trailer. I am willing to pay someone to transport the trailer. Let me know...

    Here is one more picture the intercooler is mounted and all the boots and piping are starting to go together. I may just mount headlights and turn signals on the truck as it is because it looks pretty tough...!

    Towing a commercial trailer with an M-series 5-Ton

    Lights aside, be careful if you ever move a van trailer with a military tractor. Moving a van trailer that is typical height will result in excessive height about 14'6" here is my 925 converted tractor hooked to a standard height trailer.

    The plan for the tri axle deuce is to make it into a four door eventually. Here is one more picture of the intercooler, along with 2 others from using the other truck to move some stuff. The drive shaft was twisted off pulling a full shipping container. I had already moved 2 and this one had...

    M925A2 to M932LA2 Conversion

    I believe an international but the truck I measured was in a large shop with trucks that are still in use. From there I asked some of the guys that worked there and the told me what engine it had. They also said cooler styles tend to go with engines even in different truck applications. I did...

    M925A2 to M932LA2 Conversion

    The intercooler is from a 60 series Detroit they stopped production in 98. I did a bunch of measuring and found it to be the best fit. The reason I wanted to gut the aftercooler was to eliminate is much restriction as possible. I'm going to attempt to flip the intake to make the the air enter...

    I used another dog bone setup. It is live and not steerable it's really not noticeable as far as general driving but I have not loaded it very heavy yet. The only load was an empty lowboy and it still did well.

    M925A2 to M932LA2 Conversion

    The next step on the truck is an air to air intercooler! It's from a 11.1 Detroit it's a perfect fit. So far I've removed the hood, moved the radiator back 2 1/2 inches. I also reindexed the turbo compressor, removed the after cooler then started scratching my head... The task of gutting it...
