    m923a2 with straight pipe

    I only turned the top screw out about 2 3/4 turns. Feels like twice the power it used to have. I'm happy with it. way more fun to drive!

    How much can a 5 ton tow?

    I made 10' ramps and we can drive the truck right on from the ground! It sounds nuts but works good. when the trailer is on we do load from trailer to truck. Ill post some picks and make a you tube vid the next time we load it.

    How much can a 5 ton tow?

    We used the M923A2 last Sat to haul the mud trucks to mud fest. It worked really well for this! The 85 chevy short box just fits in the bed perfectly! With the truck in the back and the loaded trailer the (big) truck only squatted 1" !!! And i think it was all in the tires! haha And some...

    How much can a 5 ton tow?

    Had to move our 80,000lb excavator across the road from one pit to the other today. Side loaded it onto a junk old lowboy. Everything was severely overloaded. Had the tires on the truck at 80psi and they looked like they had 20psi for sand! lol Should have used low range but, didn't want to get...

    M925 A2 very disappointed in ability

    We have 3 sand and gravel pits and me and some friends were playing with my A2 in some real powder sugar sand and in hwy mode without the front engaged it would hope real bad! Couldn't even hardly touch the peddle. Threw it in 6x and would hop a bit and take off. Then aired down to sand on the...

    m923a2 with straight pipe

    Straight piping and turning up the fuel slightly should be fine. I wouldnt expect them to last long if its like mine in my video tho... Only a matter of time before its a real slushbox and sitting along the road somewhere. Thats where ill probably end up! lol. Then im putting a stick in it and...

    So who has bumped the power on a 6CTA cummins

    Don't wast money on injectors. They most likely wouldn't change anything unless you turned up the pump. I'm sure you could achieve 500+hp with stock injectors. And the allison wouldn't like that...

    M923A2 CTIS Problem

    I am guessing these valves just are getting old and once the cold hits it just makes them harder to actuate... I wonder if you can get them new at an Eaton dealer? I think mine has the Eaton part # right on it!?

    M923A2 CTIS Problem

    It is the valve that is on the floor on the right hand side of the shift tower down by your feet. It is under the winch control tower if you have winch or has a tin guard over it with 3 small bolts holding it down. There are two electric plugs going to it and two air lines. A black one and a...

    M923A2 CTIS Problem

    So today I was hard up to figure out my 5 flashing light problem... The CTIS worked when i got the truck then just stopped. My front two tires both lose air over time at different rates and was like that when i got the truck. So after i got the 5 flashing lights everyone one here says my system...

    I was Stuck in the mud

    All you need is a 84 chevy half ton short box with a 30' snap strap, back tailgate to tailgate and get just as darn much speed as you can in 30'. If it moves 3" or more, keep doing it! This may take 3-20 good yanks! This works!!! If it doesn't, you ether aren't trying hard enough, or you need a...

    CTIS problems

    So you can get the 5 flashing lights just from the smallest leaks? I just don't understand how it knows there are leaks. there are no sensors on the wheels or any of the air valves...? The truck is next to perfect other than this... such a bummer...

    Cummins 6CTA8.3 Modifications Beyond Pump Adjustments, Anybody Done Any?

    Honestly, my truck would have 800hp if it had a good transmission in it... and i dont think its worth having the allison built to take it, because in the end its still just a slushbox. I'd just turn the fuel up a bit and wait till the day the tranny takes a dump. Then replace with a used one and...
