A3 is terrible to find wheels for due to the offset.

What ever happened to cavemantrucks? The MV stuff always looked like a sideline to a towing and repair shop. He is/was somewhere in NJ.

Just a thought on using the school bus... How about using the roof/wall structure for a slide in camper in the M105 bed? Cut it off forward where desired and re-rivet the front section where the roof meets the front above the windshield. Choose which windows to eliminate and you already have...

Maddawg...I used them for SS brake lines on a Dodge D350 I had. They were the ONLY place that had prebent stainless lines. If you are careful and remove the existing steel lines without bending, they can use them as a template. The cool this is that they then have it as a pattern forever...

Agreed. You can always weld a web of some sort into the block...but welding to the frame...ouch.

Did Oshkosh ever get the contract to uprate the HMMWVs with MRAP suspension?

Sorry...4BT is 745 pounds, 6BT is 1025 pounds

Dry weight on a Series 50 is 2250 pounds. Wet weight on a Cummins B5.9 is 745 pounds. Just sayin.

Convert it to an early VE pump Cummins B5.9, replace the o-rings and seals in the pump (without even removing the pump), throw in some Lucas POD injectors, a 3400 RPM governor spring and a 12cm HX35 and you'll have about 300-350hp all day long...for hundreds of thousands of miles. We did this...

:-D:mrgreen:

Have a very nice M101A3 I bought last year. The thing is flawless with one exception....the bed length. I thought after searching here that the inside bed length was 96". Nope...mine is 95 7/8". The biggest use of it is lumber which is 96"+. Just loaded it up the other day with 26 sheets...

I like the felony count. If losing his 2A rights isn't a motivator, he doesn't deserve the time of day.

Would be in conjunction with a bob and possibly a crew cab conversion so I can move the transfer case back...I just want to know if it will fit between the rails.

Oh, and the reason why is I'm trying to figure out of a Fuller RTO will fit between the frame rails of an M35A2.

Sorry, should have been more specific. I need the space between the frame rails, inside to inside.
