I replaced the winches top-most c-channel w/ a must heavier piece of C-Channel and added a pioneer tool rack and tools and IR and LED lights. I am biased but it is really a sweet setup.

Try Travis Wong Herlong 775-857-7570 I recommend no one. I have never used him but I have talked to him on the phone an dafter getting all his details I would try him. There are some tow companies in the are that go in and out of that GL regularly as well. I have not there info. Tell...

What will the tongue weight be for the trailer you are going to tow? If it is very light I think you will be ok but the combination of a cantilevered design w/ tongue weight can cause the front wheels of the tractor to become light and possible unresponsive. It effects the braking as well. I...

Eastern Surplus builds some nice rigs. I do not think they would mind me posting up pics of there handy work. I look at this and I am imediatly drawn to the HIGH ground clearance up front. So many times I see these plow trucks w/ 6" or so of ground clearance and THAT does not work for me. If...

My head contains more data now ( But I am grimacing w/ a lil data overload at the moment!)

Would love to see detailed pics of our genius John!

I have not the answers, I hope to learn here for I will be doing this exercise some day too. What is the front axle rated at and what will the actual be w/ the spreader on the back loaded? That would tell you how much, if any is left yes? If the tires are the issue is there a SuperSuper...

What is the RPM at idle prior to stall?

I took these screen prints from the TM's that are HERE. As found in TM 9-2320-260-20 Does the TC Shift Lever hit anything? It shows a specific measurement of 8.75" center to center on one connecting rod and all pivots lubed? There is a "poppet valve" part #9 on the right side of the tranny...

I wish I could help, but is there a TM w/ a front axle / transfer case troubleshooting section? Air all air lines routed correctly, something crossed? Do you have a pneumatic schematic? I hate whodunits... there is a resolve, you will get to it.

I think the best piece of info a guy can carry when off roading anything is to NOT stop while going uphill. Always aim down then stop and if she spins STOP immediately and air WAyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy down and watch it crawl right on out of its hole. That truck was not stuck. It was made to be...

For discussion sake;

I hope someone can shead some light on this for me. As simple as it seems I can not seem to figure out if the spacer that is designed to be inserted between the pump and the TC that is suppose to disengage the TC Cooling pump is indeed missing from my truck. I am inclinded to say YES, it is...

So these MEP501A Diesel Generators are not good to try to start a 24V truck if you leave teh battery switch on? Can you guys recommend a military generator that will do what I want or is there a way to do something so I can use a MEP501A to start a truck where the battery switch was left on?

Anyone (like me) who is learning how to do all this, I suggest you CLICK HERE and read this document. It is VERY informative. I have been discussing this truck w/ SafHolland engineering and we think we have decided on parts that make this truck the most versatile. Indeed others in the past...

I ask for nothing for free. I am considering a lot at FT Reily North, KS, it is one pallet, w/ two tranny jacks on it. Just pick it up and drop it off at a shipper, ESTES would be great or if you have a suggestion. Ship to Los Angeles. Please PM me w/ all your contact info. Two weeks away...

Robert you are a plethora of good info always. Correct, I am not wanting to drill the frame for many reasons as you stated plus some. If I can pull the top plate off the oscillating unit and mount it to my OE bottom half I probably will. I am off yo scope that out today. The part I picture...

I would love to see pics of your set up goodguy....
