Looking for exterior cab width and exterior cab height (not truck height, just the cab) searched and could not find, sorry if i missed it. Thanks

new pics seem to be fine, but the ones posted on the earlier pages do not show up...

just spent the last two weeks reading every page of this thread (only when I had some extra free time of course). I cant say anything that has not been said already. Congratulations on a very cool truck that you have put a lot of hard work, love and time into. :D Did you see any 815 crew/double...

I'm sure he will take that into consideration, four and half years later.... nice first post...:oops:

an engine is 100% efficient (energy and matter are neither created nor destroyed only changed in form) so if you want to make use of more than just crank power (generator, driveshaft, etc) then you should definitely use the other energy sources like heat that the engine produces. That is...

12.5 R20 is about 40 and three quarters diameter and 395/85R20 is 46 and 3/4" diameter.

spray some dye on those seats and let it dry REALLY well before driving, as it can fade onto your clothes if it gets wet (sweaty) though good dye should not do this. A pyrometer, more properly a thermo couple (Thermocouples, Thermocouple Products & Thermocouple Accessories) can be placed before...

ENGINE! -- That's the short and simple answer. An 11-12k pound truck thats basically a brick wall is being pushed down the road by an engine that was 134hp and 330 TQ when it was new. Yes the gears and tires are a part of it, i.e. you can change to 38" tires or numerically higher gears and it...

get a Deuce and replace the multi-fuel with a real motor like a 12 valve Cummins or Detroit :-) then take the Multi-fuel and put it onto a skid coupled to a big ass generator. Now you have a cool end of the world truck and a generator that will run on **** near anything.

better not turn that motor up at all with the 727 in an 11,000 pound truck....

Not a mud guy, but there are a couple of nice deuces in that video on the first page....:smokin:

just do these and you have a hub already configured for a 22.5 wheel: http://www.gearharteng.com/assets/images/8.jpg

Hey Shannon, whats the latest on your Cummins swap? Werent you working on an Allison/Cummins combo with Howard's parts?

bc an M35 has been bobbed a million times and a 211/135 (it appears) has not :D Not about cutting up a classic or one that has been restored, more like find a decent body and dont worry if everything is period correct or not. I just like the look of the older trucks. The bobbed m35's are cool...

Since this is the hot rodding forum, I will put this here, but feel free to move it if its in the wrong place. I searched in the Korea to Vietnam section and did not find anyone with a bobbed M211 or 135. Obviously plenty of M35's have been done and was just thinking something a bit different...

You can watch most of the old episodes on their website for free: Xtreme 4x4 Episodes they are also available on iTunes. What comes on Saturday is usually repeated on Sunday Ian, truck turned out good, but you should have put it through its paces more. These trucks are very capable and you...

35% warning for language..... That car was a piece when it was new.....

^^ how much trouble is it to fit the CTA Cummins into that engine bay? Cummins is known for tall heavy engines, but not sure how it compares to the multi fuel that came out of it... Guess if a 3208 fits, the CTA should fit too.. Looking forward to seeing that build up...

Though I have never driven a rig with hydraulic steering on the road, I have to say that you may be over thinking this a bit.... Hydraulics are in use in thousands of applications from manufacturing facilities to cranes to steering on cars and trucks. Hydraulics typically do not fail...

^^ search on pirate, its been done a few times... pretty tough fitting it because of the tall center section.
