    HEMTT Question

    augiedoggy, Update, just to keep the info straight. Damon, DMA251, was the previous owner and builder of that rig. Now Stalwart & wife are the proud owners.:drool:

    2011 - PNW Mini Rally 5 - Bridging Truck Recovery

    I was on board with this idea 100%. But then I realized that my 813 has historic plates and collector insurance. So I am not covered unless I get re-registered and real insurance.

    Flat tow isn't a bad idea. The 16.00x20 loose a lot when going up steep hills, with a towed load of 26,000 it would be that much worse. I guess I could swap out my 11.00x20 street tread tires. I will have to talk to Adam about it. So CDL A would be ok for 23K M813A1 pulling 26K M283 if the...

    I know that first hand. I had to do an inperson license renewal back in sept. I think I picked up a copy then. Funny part was I showed up early on a monday, and only after waiting for 2 hours did I find out that they are open tues-sat.

    Adam, I think it is, I have an underground lab and everything. Did you catch the dedication at PNNL on the news yesterday, I saw one report that showed the overburden piled on the lab, I think it was KEPR-TV. Harold, I don't know a S.B. an electronics guy S.M. The lab is actually pretty...

    2011 - PNW Mini Rally 5 - Bridging Truck Recovery

    It is almost like they want me to drive a truck for a living not as a hobby. Maybe the govt. should come up with a rule that if you want to experiments with something, anything, you first have to get a degree in physics and understand how the world works first. Or if you are going to have...

    Kevin, Still only 3 Steel soldiers and me and two friends. Hammer, I do not know anyone with trucking equipment much less a lowboy. I did get a uship bid of $1300 to move the truck. But I would rather put the money towards parts for the M328. Do you mean a cdl learners permit or a trip...

    Hammer, Thanx, it is good to know that there are others in the 'area' we can go to for questions if needed. Sometimes I just wish this state wasn't so big. What ever made the Govt. think it would be a good idea to put a Nuke related lab way out in the middle of nowhere?:-D I think Adam and I...

    6602 Engine Swap - How involved is it?

    Thanx m139h2otruck, I will research your m328 threads. I lucked out and have a new SS member living near me (scoutmanadam) who has a CDL A. So we are pulling together a plan to have him pilot the ship back to the Tri-Cities on a oversize trip permit/signage. The truck was singled out by Kevin...

    Accessory Plug

    Does the controller run on 12 or 24V?

    Accessory Plug

    Is it a single pin connector, looks like a rf /antenna connector. I don't have a clue otherwise.:confused: It does look like you have a hydraulic brake controller. Did you install it or was it a National Guard or State owned truck?

    new to ss picked up a 5 ton

    Howdy and welcome to the site. Is that the edna that is way south by pismo beach? Srodocker said that Brad in Yelm, WA had multi fuels for $1800 but I don't think they were LDSs.

    Scott, We are still -SO ON-, stronger than ever. That is if you want to make the drive over and back. We will plan more. And if not, there is always a place for you to crash at the Ranch.

    M146 RV Conversion

    Is that it in your avatar? I thought that was a M109a3. That is why I was asking you about your windows for my gull wing project.

    2011 - PNW Mini Rally 5 - Bridging Truck Recovery

    Good to know, I respect that opinion. From Ellensburg to yakima you can take the Yakima canyon/ river road. it is pretty level until you pull out at the Yakima end. I sorta feel that getting rid of the stop and go on the HWY and just setting a cruising speed on the interstate is the least...

    Harold, Thanx for the offer. So do you drive hwy 2 and Steven's Pass towards Levenworth much? How curvy, two lane both ways? In your opinion, for an old 1954 MV, would you dive the slow and easy turns of the interstate or take the windy slower speed back roads.

    Hello.

    Howdy from WA state ripcord01. Forum rules ask that you put your city /state as your location, so that other members can more easily assist or appropriately respond to questions and requests for help. Come on now, don't be shy. And why are you so lost?
