I have secondary air but no primary air with no air leaks to be found. Can't leave it here, do I gamble with only secondary air? Worked fine 8 hours ago and just sitting in the parking lot. Tried starting, turned everything off then started again but still no primary air.
I would have put money on DHSMV coming through today and my permanent license plate arriving in the mail.
I would have lost money on that bet.
Used the time working on my camo and bumper numbering. Really looked into and planned out what my bumper numbers would mean; since they were going to...
Well, DHSMV called me to inform me that I owed them $1.35 and that my new tag would not be mailed out until they received payment.:D
Quick phone call and a credit card number and my tag has been shipped via USPS (I verified by running my VIN and seeing the tag info listed now).
I felt like I...
Still have some tan parts to paint underneath; not to mention a camo pattern to apply... but I'm really enjoying this truck.
Tallahassee has cashed my check for my tag transfer but the last time I ran my VIN, it still doesn't show up with a tag number yet. Since I have the tag already, as soon...
Well, I can safely say that it is more green than tan now. Can't believe how hard it is to cover such a light color, I'm at 3 coats in some places and have used 5 gallons of slightly thinned paint.
Forgot who said it earlier but he was right, it's not a sprint... more of a marathon (or...

My M923A2 is a personal vehicle, not a commercial vehicle and therefore no CDL is required. Further, its weight is less than 26,000 lbs and is not used for any commercial purposes.

Just thought I would relate my trip to the Florida DMV in regards to my 1990 BMY-HARSCO M923A2.
My trip consisted of transfer of Florida Title into my name, sales tax for the purchase, and moving an antique tag from a 1969 Fairlane onto my recently purchased M923A2. My M923A2 has never been...
I've broken one socket trying to loosen the rim half bolts. Cheap sockets to begin with; off to Sears for some impact sockets.
Thanks for the info just the same.
Would someone please tell me what size socket I will need to remove the tire from the axle?
Also, what size socket to remove the two halves of the rim so I can replace the O-ring?
Well onto my way to transforming from tan to camo. Pressure washing then wire brushing with wire cup brush on the angle grinder. I think having paint so easily available and cheap, it's the way to go for me.
Moving forward with the color change. 3" wire cup brush in the angle grinder is slow and back breaking but I know the paint will stick when I'm done.
Got tired of the water always pooling on the canvas top and made some temporary bows out of PVC to tighten up the top.
Ok, that worked, the photos are working now after uploading to my photobucket account, not showing as a link, actual photo is showing in my post now with no error.
Making progress, oil filters and oil changed, large air filter under cab replaced, pressure washing the entire vehicle for prep for color change to camo/woodland paint scheme, completely wire wheeled and de-greased the entire bed and have rolled on bed liner. Long way to go but I am in no hurry.
