[QUOTE=hills;288066]Just an opinion, but it might be more hassle than it's worth to try to repurpose the axles out of an M923. They had a habit of locking up & stalling out the motor when the brakes were too firmly applied. It caused a lot of fatal accidents.
The military later had them retrofitted with anti lock brake systems and that fixed the problem.
Yep, I'm very familiar with these trucks! I know all about their ABS issues quite well, if that's what you mean.
A lot of people use them in 4x4 projects so it's definitely doable. They're pretty simple really.
I'm also an MV hobbyist "by trade" so it's very likely I'll keep the truck. If not I'm likely having it torn down with a shear for the axles. Have you trashed any of these trucks yourself?
