Alright , hopefully one liner- piston assy will do it. If it was me I would change all 3 of the head gaskets though also while youre out there. check or replace the oil pump and make sure none of that steel messed up any accessory gears.
Im real curious to see how the transmission acts, say if you select 3rd or 4rth gear and are at 2800 rpm if it will hold in the selected gear or upshift anyway.
Just putting 2 new commercial tires on the front shouldn't be that terribly expensive. At least then he will not have the worry of a front blowout as with these old junk military tires. Theres even a thread here recently where a guy had a g177 11r20 blow out on the front of his five ton.
All the specs are online, you can pick a diameter that matches up and a sufficient load rating.

Are there containers that are wider inside than standard 7 ft 8in ? I was thinking even the front hubs were wider than that? as usual mine is not within reach for me to measure. As far as height you can remove the top and exhaust stack, fold windshields etc so that's not a problem
Trying to get this box door un-seized, have been spraying pb blaster and beating on it for a week so far. I think I will take the box off so I can get a good swing with a hammer and punch on the ends of the hinge pin and maybe that will work. Otherwise will end up cutting the hinge off.
