I'm going to be roading an M923A1 from TX to CO, but first I have to deal with a blown tire on a duel. So that I know what tools to take, what are the lug nut sizes, front and back?

I'm probably going to help the Chinese with their economy by shopping at Harbor Freight.

Buy a Bud Socket (NAPA or other truck parts place) and a one inch drive set of sockets with ratchet and pull bar. Take a jack stand to rest the end of the pull bar on to keep it from slipping off. Also get at least a four foot cheater bar. Beats the crap out of the stock lug wrench and other BII.

Just an fyi that left side threads are left hand.
On M37 3/4 trucks the front and rear brake drums are interchangeable. In 1/11th arty, 1969, I had an M37 that had had the LF drum switched with the RR drum, giving me right lug nuts on both front wheels and left lug nuts on both rear wheels. I knew about the LL and RR bit and about broke a lug off before I took a close look at the end of it.

Arlyn most folks don't realize how tough it is, but I carry one length of aluminum cammo net pole as a cheater pipe for the Budd wrench on all of my MV's.
