You laugh but I am serious.

Okay to clarify what Deat is asking about is how the rear facing auxiliary pto on the transmission of a 817 dump truck is setup.

Like on the back of a M1008! Great idea Ron but doubt it can be rigged up.

I don't know but that's nuts! And I don't think that would stop the rear trailer tires from locking up.

I don't think it will be a problem welding the two together if done professionally, which he is having done. But I would have it baffled to slow the sloshing of the fuel. One problem with such a long tank is the pickup it is going to be uncovered much worse than the stock.

What about adjusting the valve at the back of the cab would that slow the application of the trailer brakes? It should affect it some, because right now on empty trailer I just unhook the service gladhand and I would like to find a better way to keep my trailer from flat spotting my tires.

On a M939 series is there any way to adjust the brakes on a trailer to not engage so quickly when empty vs loaded?

Since you didn't give us much to go on I guess you mean on your 931A2? It should already run around 70 so how much more do you want? But yeah you can add a overdrive transmission and get more top end just hope your life and truck insurance are paid up. Those 14.00 x 20" are going to sling apart...

I am going to put electric windows and door locks on mine.

Doghead many of the hydraulic tanks are mounted behind the cab so that's an option for moving it. Also I would not run a crossover or put two tanks together that's putting all your eggs in one basket, just one leak and you are done. The stock military dual tank system works well and why not use...

And a picture of a 931A1P.

A few more pictures of the Bosnian armored cabs.

Only problem with the Bosnian armored kit is there are lots of gaps and the roof is completely unarmored. If building one from scratch I would take the better parts of both styles and use them.

Give me a call

You rang Sir?

Yes you can swap pumps between the 250s but you will need to swap the governor assembly over to the new pump. Also I have noticed that the 816 governor assembly and the 936 governor are not the same.

Okay Whiterabbit we agree on the angle thing. Now for the snatch block the attachment point on the load will see the total weight of the pull mired, rolling or whatever right? So the block will see the complete weight at the hook or shackle or however it is attached so wouldn't the block need to...

So I guess that was not clear so Zebedee, let me clear it up, the front winch on the 816 is rated at 20,000 lbs. So if I want to be safe I need a 40,000 lbs rated snatch block, correct? Yeah Mississippi delta gumbo mud! Zebedee I have snatch blocks in all different sizes not just 3/4 and...

Okay so I must say thank you because I have a trailer with hub centric wheels and hubs and want to switch to the bud lug centric wheels I have on everything else I own. So all I need to do is change the lugs?

What truck?
