In the late 1970s the M809 series 5-ton (4,536 kg) 6x6 trucks, based on a 1949 design, were becoming old and mechanically dated. It was still a useful type, with 35,000 in service. A "Product Improvement Package" was developed to rebuild and update the M809 series into the M939 series.
M54 (M39 series) M813 (M809 series) M923 (M939 series) The 5‑ton 6x6 truck , officially "Truck, 5-ton, 6x6", was a class of heavy-duty six-wheel drive trucks used by the US Armed Forces . The basic cargo version was designed to transport a 5-ton (4,500 kg) load over all roads and cross-country terrain in all weather.
The M809 Series 5-ton 6x6 truck was a family of heavy tactical trucks built for the United States Armed Forces. The basic cargo version was designed to transport a 5-ton (4,500 kg), 14 ft (4.3 m) long load over all terrain in all weather. In on-road service the load weight was doubled. Built by AM General, they evolved into the M939 Series.
Many M39 series were equipped with a front-mounted 20,000 lb (9,100 kg) Garwood winch, intended for self-recovery. A winch weighed 714 lb (324 kg) and added 15 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (39 cm) inches to the length of the truck. [8] [9] The M39 series had both single- and dual-rear-tire models; very few single-rear-tire trucks were built.
