    M819+m818=m817

    Awesome work! Nice to help someone out too, even better when they are close! I would imagine if you used the crane for a good while the oil would heat up, and warm the cab somewhat. I wonder if they make heaters, or probably more likely, heat exchangers for hydro oil you could mount in there...

    5ton life span ?

    M915 and M915a1 is a AM General product! lol Like EMD said, I'm sure the axles and such would give many many miles of trouble free service if taken care of. Same goes with driveline components.

    How much did they cost new?

    My trucks cost all of what I've probably paid in taxes my whole life.

    5ton life span ?

    I'm sure with regular maintenance, proper operation and care, they could last that long, or longer. Everything wears out eventually though. Problem with long life is lots of people like to run at or close to redline in 5tons, and deuces. I've put 22k miles on my M109 and the only issue I have...

    5ton life span ?

    Give me a few more years and I'll let you know on a XM818... I would imagine my trailriding is the equivilant of 10k miles of driving, so I'm already pretty close! Relatively speaking. They are like anything else. Parts will fail and components will have to be replaced. Ever hear "this is my...

    LED Off-road/work Lights

    Those are nice, I think I'll get a set and put on the back of my WVO collection truck.

    Wrecker light bar- odd connections?

    I'd rather try to make this one work, it took me a long time to find a cable! If I can't get a connector I will sell it to you for what I have in it.

    LED Headlight Support Post

    That is installed correctly then, the top half lights up for the low beam, and both light up for the high. I know it seems silly for it to work that way, but it does. I had to put washers like well digger said, on my old dodge D600, to get the lights down enough to light the road properly. (12v...

    LED Headlight Support Post

    Nope. I love mine, really light up the road. Did you replace the whole bucket? when you have the low beams on, is it the top half or the bottom half that comes on? I'm thinking maybe the buckets got put in upside down?

    yeah... "Angie, I HAD to buy the Howitzer, I already had the cable!!!" *BANG* 'Ferro's funeral will be held... Closed Casket...'

    Ferro gets a(nother) wrecker

    I should have read the TM's first! but for some reason they won't open, just open a blank tab, they do that from the site and from JAtonka's site too, both here at work and at home. Curious. I didn't know that the PTO lever worked opposite of a M543 or M816. The air pressure would set the...

    Wrecker light bar- odd connections?

    I guess I'll have to call them tomorrow, nothing like it is listed in the online parts.

    Wrecker light bar- odd connections?

    I wonder what the cable came off of then? it has the nato trailer 12 pin on the other end.
