    Street Legal and register 5 ton for commercial use?

    If you're using it commercially you will need a CDL class B with air brake endorsement. Titling and registration is state specific can't help you there.

    Wrapping steering wheel.

    I got a 70's style pleather wrap one from pep boys cheap then i used paracord instead of the cheap thin crap it has as a wrap to keep it on. Feels so much better.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Put on a 5" stack I got for $20 on Craigslist using my original tailpipe as the lower extension after i cut off its bend. Louder than i anticipated but i love it. Sounds great and I've noticed the truck is running better. Also my horn button wouldn't work there's a short somewhere in the...

    Cummins 8.3 fan shutter stat

    Sounds crazy but i had a coolant leak and didn't realize it was as bad as it was. My truck would get hot but fan wouldn't kick on. Make sure your coolant is topped off, i topped mine off and suddenly the fan would work. I guess want enough coolant to drench the probe on the shutterstat.

    NHC 250 Commercial Applications

    The A2 actually has an 8.3 Cummins turbo diesel not a 250. Which is a popular marine motor or so I've been told. Love the sound of the 250 but i own an 8.3.

    Show your 5 tons in the snow.

    Thanks. I figured that's what it might be. It looks great. I suck at making/painting models but maybe I'll give it a shot sometime.

    Show your 5 tons in the snow.

    Maybe it's just the angle of the pic but it looks bigger than 1:87

    Show your 5 tons in the snow.

    Is that a model or die cast? I gotta get one of those.

    Fuel Filter Change Procedure... Please double check me?!

    How do you replace the o rings in the primer pump? Is it obvious? Mine just started dropping when i use it although mines an A2 if that matters.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I prefer to keep my factory woodland 3 color camo, but the tan over black looks pretty sweet on everyone else's trucks.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    My place charges me $50 for a tire breakdown/clean+sand/rebuild/new o ring. What's the story with the dry deck mats? Never heard of that before.
