    NO LONGER Wrecked wrecker

    Yeah singling out to super singles seems like the best solution... don't really see a reason to keep the NDTs in the rear.

    NO LONGER Wrecked wrecker

    I think the M915/916 use 24.5 rims. I think they are close to 46inches tall. I am not sure though.

    Disgusted with Cat 7155

    Swapping in a 13 speed or an Alison wouldn't be too difficult, would make it a lot more appealing for resale as well.

    A few questions about speed and gearing

    May I ask why you want to change the gears if its off road only? Stock gears will give you more torque than 4.90 gear ratios. Have you seen how much 4.90's gears cost? They are about $1200. If you plan on tires bigger than 46 inches I see no benefit from 4.90 gears, especially if you only plan...

    M35a2 with M1101, what do you think?

    Hmmm i did a double take and noticed that the cab is extended. Nice work, was it a hard job?

    What power train did you add? Also could you post some interior shots? That would be awesome.

    ive seen 12v's how difficult would a 24v be?

    800-900+ for a high mileage one. 1000+ for a low mileage one. Rock crawler guys love them and they are pretty hard to come by compared to a 6BT.

    ive seen 12v's how difficult would a 24v be?

    Chips don't add much power to a 24v. And having a 12v in a deuce does not make you a "other guy" by any means.

    ive seen 12v's how difficult would a 24v be?

    4BT's go for a pretty penny. I would suggest sell it and buy a 12v. You cant beat a mechanical motor.

    ive seen 12v's how difficult would a 24v be?

    I think if you use the NV4500 you will need to move the transfer case back for more room. Though i would have to suggest a fuller 6 speed for a tranny choice.

    ...Track on a trailer...

    Also you can never over secure a load. Basically you want as many points of redundancy as possible.

    Earth Roamer or M109? I'll take a M109!!!

    For a 1/4 of the price you could make a M109 pretty bad a$$.

    Big Chineese Trucks

    They cant touch our Navy or our Air force. I'm not worried. Also China has never really been on the offense only defense. They wouldn't gain anything by attacking us.

    Reasons to NOT get a M916?

    God I would almost do anything to have that truck.

    big 6x6 truck questions

    But given their low cost it wouldn't take much more money to do a engine and trans swap. Something like a M920 in the civilian would cost well over 80-90K. So lets say you buy one off of GL for 5K. You could probably make it conform to the civilian standards for 15-25K. In the end you could have...
