You can just flip the tire over without removing the runflat however the valve stem will be pushed up against the inside of the runflat and you will not be able to get the air out very quickly. I used a grinder to remove enough rubber to let air out, They balanced out like that so I have been...

I watched a show where they had about 6 or 8 snatch blocks and about a 1 inch dia rope and they would stick the 5 tons on pourpose and pull it out with only manpower and pulleys they were right down the road in ft benning. It may have been dirty jobs with Mike rowe.

AM General. This truck has 13k miles but never had a 2000s update, Or at least I did not see a update tag on it, I did see a little bell shaped tag on the bottom of the drivers side seat That had 9-99 on it but nothing else other than random numbers. I cranked it this eve and ran it for 10...

SO the 5 ton I am looking at has no reverse and when the guy who bought it from gl figured out it had no reverse he quit messing with it, It has sat for 4 years at his shop. He has no paperwork from where he bought it so no sf97.. Its an 84 so my question is in ga can I get a tag with no...

He says it wants to pull in reverse but just wont pull itself. What Allison trans is in a 1983 923?

This is it, Is this a 939?

I found out its an 1983, Are the trans interchangeable between a lot of years?

Anyone got a pic of this reverse lockout? This things only got 13k on it, Could reverse be worn out that quick? ANd they said it goes down the road so I assume all the other gears work.

I have not seen the truck yet but will this week. I will keep this in mind.

So its an Allison transmission in it? Which allison?

I have found a 5 ton in LA, Its an auto but the owner says reverse is out. Anyone know whats involved with getting a trans repaired? Is this something a regular ole trans shop could work on? Or is this something I could repair on my own? its an 85 model if that makes any difference.

So is there a quick study guide to which of these vehicles are able to be run on the street leaglely?
