M916-M920 Tech & Tips

[M920]

Ok...so I have owned my M920A1 since 2003 and I have put over 110,000 miles on it since then. I have done lots of mods (some better then others...LOL) and had to deal with my share of problems and breakdowns.

Lately I'm getting a lot of questions from folks that benefited from the recent release of hundreds of these trucks on GL, and this got me thinking that maybe I should try and help some of the proud owners by starting a tread with tech & tips, to try to make their trucks more reliable and usefull.

Oh....and if nothing else....I might at least be able to prevent others from making the same mistakes that I have made over the years.

So my question to all the M916-M920 owners out there is: Would there be an interest in a thread, in which I would try to share some of my experiences with my M920A1 and with the new M916, and what I have learned in the process of owning and driving them.....?

I was thinking of doing a new post once or twice a week.

Let me know if this would be perceived as usefull.....

Thanks Soni

I'm not a 920 or 916 owner, but I've enjoyed reading about your 920 build, and about your recent 916. If I had the skill, time and space I'd build a 920 like that. You have a truck that's the envy of more than a few on the board so I think we'd like to read about tips born out of your lessons learned. A one stop thread on experience regarding 916s and 920s for owners and potential owners would be great.

Yea im also not a owner of a m916 or m920...i do want to be but its not in the cards for awhile lol. but just reading your mods and how you've done them is really awesome. you should deuce and deck it out as you have a m920. so it can give us deuce owners some more ideas hehe

I only have an M818 today but you never know. I'd enjoy reading and I might need the info some day in the future.

 

[Csm Davis]

You can never learn too much, I would love to hear your knowledge about these trucks.

 

[doghead]

Ummm, yeah. I'm not even an M.V. owner, yet. But I not only vote yes, but a resounding he|| yes.

As a new 915a1 owner I would really appreciate any information I could get from someone with real worlds practical experience.

 

[86m1028]

As an m916 owner I vote yes.

 

[Ferroequinologist]

As someone planning to be a 915or916or920 owner very very soon, I agree with all the above!

 

[wreckerman893]

There is no such thing as too much knowledge......please post away.

Due to budget constraints I have sold all my M915's and 916.

If things get better I am going to shoot for a M920 since there is no such thing as having too much truck.

Maybe the mods can make it happen.

 

[eldgenb]
