After work yesterday I swapped out batteries in a M923 and took it for a spin.
Today I got a Michelin 1100 X 20 off of the M923 and replaced it with a Goodyear. That truck now has all Goodyears in great shape. I took the Michelin and mounted it on a deuce wheel, then put it on the truck's right rear. We had a M105 trailer come in with both 1100 Michelins mounted to roll the same direction. I put one in the spare tire rack and the other on the left rear. That finished out my truck with Michelins. Looks and drives great!
We had a couple of 923s stashed in some trees ar the dead intersection of two old dirt streets. They were pretty well hidden with their green camo and all lf the low hanging tree limbs. Fired up the 923 and slaved off both of the hidden trucks. BOOM! Deuce like starting! There was a pretty rough Marine Corp truck nearby on singles and it fired instantly. One of our drivers speared the lower hood bracket with a fork and bent it pretty badly on an otherwise very nice truck. I went down and slaved it off. I think the flywheel must have been afraid of the starter, it must have fired on the first compression stroke. We will have to fix that one. I drove it around for a while. Super nice driving truck! Much more of that truck and I will be buying one... Anyway, it was a great day in the green iron.
