likely dirt and debries in the drums them self the 5 tons have closed back brakes usually the plates can be removed for inspection. I work in a muddy environment and find closed back drums retain much more junk than do the open back brakes like the lmtv
they can be added its a pretty intense addition on the 925 because of the cables and controls that go in to run winch controls and pto operation one culd go air over hydraulic controls and simplify it.
they are a sob lots of rivets if you have a turtle back model much more work. I did one in Iraq that was hid by an ied you will need a rivet setter and bucking bars and clecos best advice I can give you would be to befriend an aviation mechanic and buy him a few cases of beer to come over and...
both the 3l80 and 4l80's are flat towable did it lots as a young gi, you must have the t- case in natural and make certain it is if not you will smoke the transmission. for safety purposes you should use a truck one size larger to tow with as the towed vehicle has no brakes and can push you...
