    Yes they are adapters. My buddie had them made for a custom chevy c70 mud truck that he had 2.5 ton axles under. When he went to 5 ton i bought the m off him and put them on my truck. I was a little worried when he got them but his truck has a detroit 6v92t that is built and he towed around a...

    Bobbed engine swap and hydo powersteering

    Ok, I was able to do some more work on the truck. I finished drilling the holes to mount the plate i made to reinforce the frame. To let the box fit flat i had to drill a 3 5/8 hole for the body of the box. Also installed the 5 ton column and as soon as the box is in for good i can figure out...

    Bobbed engine swap and hydo powersteering

    Hey The head gasket went in my truck so i decided to replace the whole engine with a military rebuild that my father inlaw had. I figured while the engine was out it would be a good time to do the powersteering conversion that i had started buying parts for. Well here are some pictures of the...
