A skate helps to get stubborn vehicles to move easily. You could make your own and save some $. They're just hard plastic. Even a 2x6 under the tongue helps when winching

Like doghead said. Drop your hauling trailer and use your tow vehicle to load. Just back them right on!

Looks like the hard part is over! Are those mirrors extra wide like a bridge truck or just a homemade job?

Thanks. I've almost got my wife convinced to live in it for a while and save some money to buy property. It's cheaper to build your own camper than buy a new one. And you can put what you want in it and if something does break, you know how to fix it and what it's made out of. I do recommend...

Around here tow trucks (wreckers) are exempt on weight. I once went through the scales at 140,000 lbs and got waved right through. Your over width no matter what. Your gonna need a permit. If your not going far maybe look into farm tags, they have some loopholes too. Let us know what you come...

I'd call your local permit office. Most likely they will issue a permit. Your gonna be over weight and over width. In not sure how wide or at what weight they will require a chase vehicle. Evey time you move it they will require you to provide your route and they may have you avoids certain...

M35a2 should only need 2. My last M35 and my 818 is the same dash and only has 2. This should really help with ours since there is only 2 bulbs

Looking good. I know that was a lot more work than the pictures show. And the green looks much better than the red!

The codes are all the same. There should be a manual in the tms forum too Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

The 936 system is immensely simpler than the 816. The 819 is actually a simpler system also but it doesn't rotate 360°. On a side note. I've used portable electric power packs to cradle hydraulic booms and outriggers. One might get you out of the precarious boom position that you are in and...

Just noticed that your pretty close to me

If this is an abs truck and it isn't working it can effect shifting

I'm interested also. What size frame alternator are you planning to use?

Looks like you have enough there to make a nice truck! Good save. Are you planning to get this going before winter sets in? I'd still try to get the Gasser rolling over.

I've got a couple questions about the cab reinforcement plate. Do you lose any drivers seat space other than the seat belt? Can you still access the leg u bolts after installing?

Thank you wreckerman! Bogey wheels are a mechanics nightmare! I'm glad you got to tell the reps, I'd sure like to get a hold of a few myself!

Good to see them being worked. How many wheels does it need to have under it before it goes in the railroad section? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

Looks awsome. Very nice build. I need one of those barrel clamps! Hard to keep my 30 lb. 1919a4 still!

Replaced the fuel primer lines. They shattered when I touched them. Ticking time bomb. Also pulled the pt pump screen. Looked like brand new which is surprising seeing how the fuel filter looked. I'm going to replace the fuel hoses at the selector valve again and the orings in it. I also have a...
