I will look further into that, thanks for the suggestion

Are you saying to remove the front transfer case and replace it with a Brownie box? If so Does the brownie box act as an overdrive attached aft of the transmission?

The Deuce was my first food truck. The project got out of hand and the truck ended up taller and longer than on paper. However, it all came together for the designed purpose. The Deuce stays out of the city area and more rural. With the 5 ton, I feel it can be a more stable and manueverable...

I looked into an overdrive mod for the existing transmission but found lots of conflicting data. Also, the OD speeds that I read really weren't worth the price.

Im satisfied with my Deuce setup, however the speed is an issue. I can top out at 40mph in my deuce which doesn't allow me to hit the interstate. I need to travel to festivals on a weekly basis. I rode in a 5ton last week and the speeds were 60 - 65mph. My 5ton sketchup has a 4 foot shorter...

I am researching for a project. I came across this TM that listed the turning radius of a M923 is 46 feet but the turning radius of the M925 is 31 feet. What am I missing here? Does the M925 come standard with rear steering? If not can you add rear steering to a tandem rear with super...

I recently built a Food Truck from a Deuce. I'm future planning here with a M923 in Google Sketchup. The reason for this post is to share my 5 ton sketchup model. But for some reason I cannot up load it. If you would like a copy of the 3D model, PM me and Ill try to email it to you.

The drive shaft added 13 ft. Its an entire school bus plus the short shaft from the Deuce. This thing is going to sit on a Military base for the next 20 years. Drives 3 miles per day and thats a straight shot.

26,000lbs exactly, lol. Im actually 25,500 with a full tank and loaded out for festivals

My entire marketing plan hinged on the size of it, by design its at its max limit to attract festival goers l, who take photos, who share them, who get me more followers

13' 1" last i looked 13, 6 was the limit

After seven long months, a fabrication buddy and I have made my Pizza food truck operational. Not the best picture in the world, I'm setting up a full marketing photoshoot later next month. I will custom build an attached ice chest with drawers where the ice chest's are currently on the...

doghead I used an IR gun but did not know exactly where to shoot it? The engine block was about 180 "below the exhaust manifold", the top elbow of the thermostat housing was about 115-120, the lower radiator hose was about 115-120, the radiator was about 95 deg in all 4 corners. I assumed...

My Deuce water temp slowly rises to 230-240deg while sitting at idle. No steam or change in engine noise. I replaced the thermostat with a 190deg one. The issue wasn't resolved, I still sit at 230-240. I rinsed and flushed the radiator about 5 times and noticed that the water color was a...

To update my project. Construction is about 95% complete but the kitchen is functional. We had our first "soft opening" the other day and it was a very quick sell out I had to widen my base since the outer wheel width was 84" and my container was 96". I am probably the first person in history...

Thanks, Me and a welder buddy have been building it at his house out of a lean-to shed for the past 5 months. No special tools or equipment, just his basic metal home shop tools and the use of the neighbors forklift as needed. We have stuck to the original concept and overall plan but the...

I was thinking of going cheap and adding 4 new airbags without any fancy controllers. Just plain old bags that I manually fill from the air hose I tied into my CTIS tanks. Then level it out on flat ground fully loaded. The suspension width is just right but I need to take out the "give" or...

Quick update. I dualed the rear axles and replaced the 14.5x20 with New G272 MSA's 12.00x20 with tubes. The overall width from outside tire to outside tire is 96" and is much more stable. The bogie trunnion cap hasn't rubbed on the rear inside tires as of yet but I'm not too concerned since...

Thanks for the help with the width

gimpyrobb, I think airbags will solve my problems. I am going to have a suspension shop look at it and give me some advice.
