    M934 Expando Van Wall Insulation

    I'm having to pull and redo all the side wall insulation and panels due to rot and wanted to know what they used as insulation. I don't need nor want to dig into the front of the box where all the heating/AC unit/known asbestos is, just the expanding side panels.

    Cummins NHC 250 Seized Up w/ Pictures

    Some of you may know I've been working on getting an M925 running for a while but no luck. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on an engine swap then tore into the seized engine. Cylinder 3 & 4 were solid, 3 being the main issue as the valves were stuck open and let in water. The valves are...

    M35 Reo 13A - Gasser to M109A3 Conversion

    I've got an interesting M109A3 that shows major signs of being not just a gasser in it's past life but an auger unit as well. I've got no year or manufacturer on it, one tag does show the truck was reconditioned by Reo Model: 13A Serial: 107000. I've found no information on this specific model...

    M923 Cummins NTC 250 Overheating

    I've got a cummins 250 that is acting up on me and over heating. I've flushed the system 4 times to remove the build up and checked the water pump so all feels to be in good working order. The engine will creep up to 220 if I let her idle for about 10 minutes and the radiator doesn't get above...

    M923 Prime Loss - Air Bubble

    I've got an atypical issue I've not had before and looking for input. I've got a m923 that keeps getting a small air bubble in the line near the lift pump when the truck is off. It doesn't drain down to the filter, it just forms a bubble enough to stall the engine from a start. I've swapped all...

    Cummins 250 Fuel Injectors

    I've got a M923 fresh from overhaul that is missing on 2 cylinders, confirmed with a temp gun. I thought I got lucky when I got a box of fuel injectors for a good price through GL but it appears I've hit a snag. NT855 vs NTC855. The heads of the injectors are different though everything else...

    LST-178A-85 Lube Unit Slave Plug

    Has anyone added a slave port to their lube unit? I know the modification wont be hard but I'd like to see if anyone has done it before and where they put it.

    M936 Wrecker Wiper Seals

    I recent bit the bullet and got all my seals and hoses replaced. The one seal I could not source at all is the wiper seal to keep the debris out of the cylinder. I took it to my local hydraulic specialist who services everything big and small and they didn't have anything for it nor could they...

    Kansas to Texas

    I ended up with 3 trucks out of Ft Riley, Kansas: 2x m925 and 1x m923A1. All are described as non-runners but are clean trucks with good tires, I'm betting they'll fire up with fuel and batteries. Looking to get them driven or delivered to Bryan, Tx 77840 by the 21st of July. I have tools and...

    M923A2 Unknown Sound

    I recently picked up an M923A2 that was super clean but a non-runner due to the typical loss of fuel prime. After I got it running I noticed a metallic pinging coming from the drivers side around the IP. The tach cable adapter/connector is MIA. The fluids are good and brand new, no blow by, runs...

    M200A1 - Landing Leg Identification

    I've pulled out the TM 9-2330-205-14 which covers the trailer and the landing leg disassembly/reassembly but my leg is not the one pictured (square vs circular). I need to identify and break this unit down to see why it isn't cranking right. The leg is fully retracted and the grease was good, I...

    M1028 - Wiper makes GPs Toggle

    I've only recently had this issue which boggles me. My m1028's GPs will toggle sporadically when my wipers are on. It's seems to act up mostly when it's raining (though possibly just the time I'd use the wipers most) but still sometimes when it's dry out. If I let the truck idle until warm with...

    Cummins 250 Tach Drive Tip

    Looking for a "Drive Tip" for my M931A1 w/ Cummins 250. It appears this part was robbed (along with other things I've now replaced) so my Tach doesn't work.

    OKC Pickup

    I have two pallets that need to be moved off GL's yard in OKC. One is a pump assembly and the other is two vehicle seats. I've had 2 shippers bail last minute and am running out of time. If someone is heading south I can meet them or if someone can just get them out of there I'll have them...

    Hyster H40-XL-MIL Trans/Differential Issues

    I picked up a "old" model A177 Hyster H40-XL-MIL forklift from a well known auction site and have been getting her back into running shape. Starts great, low hours, hydraulics worked after some lube, and overall a very nice unit. The issue that stumps me is it wont move forwards or backwards on...

    Unidentified Master Cylinder Assembly

    I picked this up a while ago and have been trying to identify it ever since. There are no full NSNs on the unit and it's brand new, just shelf ware. The bottom number on the master cylinder is 31-100-080 which is the casting number. This thing is heavy.

    M923 Starter Issue

    Murphy came on a recovery with me this weekend when hitting a rough patch in a construction zone. The truck ran great but after we got home and I tried to start her again issues appeared. Initially engaging the starter resulted in the engine trying to turn over but it never got a full rotation...

    HEMAT Tire Sizing

    I've been looking into putting new tires on my M931 and have an opportunity to get a set of HEMAT 15 x 22.5 tires for a good price. The question is will they fit on my M931 singled out without any modification and will they clear the mud guard next to the fuel tanks? I don't want to step up to...

    MRAP Electrical Outlet Box Identification

    I'm assuming that MRAPs go under armor..anyways. I picked up this dual output 7-pin & 12-pin connector box off an RG33L model MRAP and am curious to it's purpose and capabilities. Finding a TM that answers this is either behind a paywall or needs DoD access (TM 9-2355-320-10). Any input would be...
