Like couple members mentioned come drive someones, and get a visual up close aspect of them and you can make more of a decision. You can test drive mine, but I know there is more members closer then me. Its how I got started and I got rid of my m35a2c for a m813a1. I def love the 5 ton more. If...

Just one question if a guy ever showed up with cash and trailer could he ever buy parts? I know what they're fate is but didn't know if someone needed part if they could get something that they can't find off someone else partingout, vs going to the big suppliers?

I been having rough day and that comment just made me spit my drink. Thanks needed the laugh

Don't bridge trucks have a special wheel essentially giving more offset then a standard wheel? I was at sam winers and seen some diffrent offset (deeper) wheels and thought he said was bridge truck wheels, vs the standard wheels for my 5 ton when I was looking for 2 rims in the junk yard to...

Thanks for the feedback. Been possibly looking for some like 14.5 tires to put on it, but seems I read a lot of issues about using the hemtt rims or stock. So I will look for 2 radials and put on front.

Not to dig up a old thread but looking to do the same thing mentioned. Anyone figure out if its ok to run a radial tire on front and keep rear ndt? Or even put a wider tire on front to act like a floater tire on front? My truck I got fronts are shot and like idea of a radial vs bias. And I have...

Now that's a big boy toy.

Yes save it for parts for people.

Well I am pretty sure I have a ground issue. We went over to the garage this morning. Turned signals on. It just froze this time ans stayed solid when we turned it on with our push button controls. Took about 3 steps and went to start checking wires. Now its all blinking normally. Keep repeat...

I'm going to check grounds today and report back. As stated its not the box cause we checked that with another truck that has led and working ok on his but not mine

Yes all 4 corners are led.

A friend was over we tried swapping out his flasher box and switch and wasn't that. I will try barrman suggestion.

Ok hope I word this right. I have the led turn signals (trucklite) and brake lights on my truck. Just put em on when I hit my signal switch they just light up but don't blink. Thought it could be a ground issue, but everything is grounded ok. Just to check see if its something diffrent I...

Why not keep the drum brakes and upgrade the rest to little more modern. Since you want to compare look at a over road semi. Carry massive loads and run drum brakes, just everything else to it is better then a m35 style to get there. Your after surface area, and clamping pressure. Drums have...

Bump. Looking at getting a 5 ton are these still available?

Still think 25k is about 2x at tops of what it should cost you

Does someone got a snatch block? Get a cable put truck and trailer back to back. Run cable from front of trailer to bed and off to a truck. Pull the cable, which will slide off the bed onto the trailer (its kentucky, never doubt a redneck when something needs done)

Got a car trailer? Put it on there and boogy down the road behind ur civy.
