If it is on the other side you might be able to rotate the transfer case. It has been done to put air brake 5 ton axles under a 2 1/2 ton.

I read other post and found that has been done by clocking the 2 1/2 ton transfer case. Looks like the way to go.

Has anyone done this without changing the transfer case? I want to put the air brake 5 tons under a bobbed deuce and then it will be easy to change to s cams on the rear.

Non were over 20000 pounds. The case is rated at 650 pounds of input torque in low range and that is about all they are good for. They all had good traction in the sand and were stuck at the time and in reverse.

They were 3 trucks that were all stock.

Here is a couple. Rockwell rates the case at 650 foot pounds of input torque in low range and 7350 input torque in high range. Low range is 1.79 and high range .732 It holds 13.5 pints of oil and weighs 460 pounds. This is the 3rd one in here this year and all broke in the same place.

I would pull over before the brakes lock up. Then spend $200. for a good air dryer.

I do understand air brakes and i do understand deuce brakes. I would rather push on the brakes and loose some air than push on the brakes and loose some fluid. I also have lost the brakes on a deuce. And i do have an air brake indorcement on my cdl that I have had since 1976. Mabey that is...

Looks like people do not understand air brakes to me. Or mabey do not want to get an air brake indorcement on your drivers licence.

S cam air brakes are the way to go. The air over disc setup is no better than drum brakes. They are even worse if you off road them.

Since you live in Fl after the truck is removed you request the sr 97 and GL will fed ex you some paper work to sighn and they will send it to the state and the state will send you the title. It takes 2-3 weeks after Gl sends you the paper work to sighn. The title will be made out to the name...

1400x20s are about 48 high.

I do not know what you are putting then on but the 1600x20 are about 52-53 tall

We have always used dawn dish soap.

I have just washed and painted them and the paint has stuck a couple years. If you want a show type paint job sand and prime just like you would anything else.

Glad it went together good for you.

I have always hooked the small one to the tank neer the bottom. So the tank has three lines. I do not know what it is for but I have ran one of them over 30000 miles on 1400s and still going strong turns the tires at an idle stopped.

I made them with deuce centers.

A couple more.

I would pull the air intake hose off at the intake and use starting fluid while someone cranks it over with at least half throttle. Start cranking before you start spraying. It might take 1/2 to a can of good starting fluid. Do not give it a big shot and then go in the truck and crank it over.
