    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    While there are provisions for loads forward of the front marker lights, I think those only apply to "Cranes" and it's not considered the load. The rear was definitely not marked properly...LOL

    I admit defeat!!! rad hose size.

    Here's the supply data, characteristics should be what you need. I crossed the part # into my standard system and couldn't find a cross, but I didn't try very hard and I can't access the CAGEC info from home.

    Singles for 920 tractor

    Yeah two spares is a problem and I've learned the hard way my commercial insurance doesn't cover Roadside Assistance, or towing. As I finish up the M871, and try and acquire an M872. I think one of the things far down my list is coming up with a common tire for the M915a1 and B train combo...

    Singles for 920 tractor

    Karl personally since you have the combat rims I would pull a wheel off the 5 ton and test fit the M920. Some drums where worse than others so at least you get an idea what your looking at. Additionally I prefer to have equal meat all the way around, so I would run the same wheel/tire combo on...

    M916-M920 Tech & Tips

    Curious minds want to know, I couldn't find anything in the -10 that jumped out at me. In the engine retarder section it eludes to after 2300 rpm the tranny disengages, that maybe what you are referring to. Would scare the crap out of me if I didn't have any gears starting up hill.

    Singles for 920 tractor

    Karl you can get 1400's all around on the M920 and be safe, I believe 1600's will even fit. The problem is wheel's most 20's don't fit without modification to the drum. I believe Soni runs a 21.5" accuride in place of the stock 24" on his M920.

    Folding tire davit......How is supposed to work/look?

    So I was working on the M925 this weekend and I discovered two things. One folded up I suspect the Davit will fit in the tool box. And two I suspect the folding davit was used on winch trucks cause it will be in the way when using a jib boom.

    M275 Deuce Rescue from Doom

    Whats with the retro photo look. They look as if you scanned photo's from the 80's. Nice save!

    I am getting confused by the numbers, can you help me understand them?

    The differences are covered in the TM. There are subtle difference between each but the A2 has the 8.3L and CTIS, which is the biggest difference between it and the A1 or even the A0.

    How to respond to unsupportive comments?

    I believe both the current and past member of Discovery's "Dual Survival" were accused of that very falsification. David Canterbury admitted to it, Joe Teti was standing his ground not sure the outcome. Personally I've told civilians I'm a Cruise Missile Pilot and an Oxidization Control Engineer...

    How to respond to unsupportive comments?

    Oh so close we were looking for; "If I wanted your opinion, I would have given it to you" which follows; "oh I didn't tell you, non of your **expletive** business" I've used both, one was used yesterday...:D

    M939A1 Series WHERE in TM's wheel splitting?

    That is the one furnished by US ARMY TACOM. 9LCB21018952 is manufactured by Milcom Technical Inc. In my experience it's hard to find crosses of TACOM procured parts, except through GL by NSN 5331-01-314-7598.
