    M54A2C Super single options Dualled Super single?

    He has found some Ag tires/wheels that would work but its knocking at $3k a corner for the tire wheel combo. Trying to not empty his wallet that bad.

    M54A2C Super single options Dualled Super single?

    So i have a couple of questions that i have not found the answers to even with an advanced search. Can a M54A2C run 1600R20 singled out? If you can flip the Hubs to run them super single what is the distance from the bolt face to the frame or anything else that can rub? A guy I know with this...

    m35A2 super single 395 install

    Lol yes the cve guys in state are real ball busters. I dont own any green yet, but I would compare it to wheeling which I am familuar with. You get stuck or break down out in the hinter land and you had better have thought it through. You need communicationrepair supplies tools and likely a good...

    m35A2 super single 395 install

    I think Rustystud does bring up a good point. You have to be more "Prepared" when running singles. Do you have a spare with you? MV tires are not always easily found when you have a blow out. Do you have the tools/ability to change one yourself? Are you operating in a tire shops service area? Do...

    Im seeing logg trucks running 425 super singles & Michelin X1 on drives and trailers. There is an outfit here called Vintage Trucking that has 3 trucks that do. Not to mention all the milk tanker trucks running around.

    I think it would look swee if you flipped the hubs and ran the single.

    m35A2 super single 395 install

    Stock rims are 7.5" wide 395 should go on a 9-10" wide rim 1200r20 should go on 8.5-9" wheel. It is not nearly as hard on the tire to put a 1200on that wheel than a 395.

    I'm looking for folks in the PNW who own semi-modern tracked armor

    Did you find anyone? I know the Puget Sound MV club meets up at the xxx in issaquah in the summertime. Have not heard of any "modern" stuff. Only know of some ww2 half tracks and shermans.

    Glove box ideas/ tire pressure differences

    I think the psi just has to to whith the load and what they were using it at. Marking the psi on shared vechiles is smart that way you know if they are low or not. The 8 bolt rims for the bias 36" had the lowest rating and I think they are rated for at least 40psi. The 12bolts are for the...

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    In Wa state doing 55 you wouldnt need flashers on. @ 45 you would. Imo if you look at commercial vehicle regs for the state you are in you will likely attract less attention & be safer.

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    I can tell you that the heavier ply rating will be WAY more expensive that "new" surplus. I bet the msrp for the new 14ply are nocking a the grand each threshold, and are much harder to aquire.

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    I cannot read the load inflatoon tables. I have looked for these specific ones and never founf them. I think they should be saved I. The TM section because you happened to get very good I formation that is not easily attained. Hopefully the table will show hp on my computer.

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    I know here in Washington state any commercial type vehicle is required to do 60mph In 70 zones. Blow outs like in that picture generally are do to a seperation causing the big BOOM! Weight, speed, travel duration, Psi and asphault temp are the big factors in causing a blow out. Heat is the...

    Eland-90 Mk7 South African Wheeled Tank (armored car)

    Its a 90mm and the ferret was a predecessor idea that was built/improved upon. The wiki page has lots of good Info. The big plus for this rig is its speed, agility, and the fact its air mobil armor. Its actually a pretty small ride and the mk 7 was increaded in size and the last of its series...

    Eland-90 Mk7 South African Wheeled Tank (armored car)

    Thats exactly what its for. They are just connected wirh some wing nut like nuts bolts since they are wheeled they would likely need some help at one pont or inother in the soft dirt or sand.
