Larger tires makes the speedometer run slower than actual speed, not faster. That's what makes his problem sort of weird. Might be an internal speedo problem. Does the needle bounce any?

Great, thanks! The band brake on my 715 is a little messed up where the previous owner tried to "adjust it". Looks like he did it with a hammer, and I figured I'd just swap to something better if I was going to have to fix it. Whatever you can find out will be much appreciated. Model and...

Watch wiring the headlamps in series, if one goes the other should too and then you have nothing. I was working on this problem for my M715. I thought I'd get a set of Halogens in 24V and just resolder the mil wire connectors on, but the only thing my Sylvania catalog lists in a 3 terminal...

Hey, Spicergear. Yeah, I'm dreaming of a 6x6 at some point in the future. Figured I'd hang around here so I could learn some stuff about them before I jump in head first like I did with the M715.

Hmmm, interesting. Could you be more specific on the Jetta rotor? Year, size and front/rear if you know. What caliper are you using? I might have to try this, rather than rebuild the E-brake on my 715.

For what it's worth in the future, http://www.jtomlin.com/ appears to have a few kits for $225. I don't know how complete they are, but they are listed as new. Might be worth a shot to those that need them.

Interesting. While I really like the 5 tons for their size and power, a 5 ton with the van body is close to 12' tall and I'm sure I'd bang it into every tree I can find. The deuce model might actually work better. More options are always good as few of the expansible van bodies are complete...

Yeah, I swapped Emails with Tom a few months back when I was interested in his truck. I was selling a house to get it, and the deal fell through so I didn't end up with it. To be honest the thing that bothered me about both the 791 and the 934 was the automatic tranny. Thanks for the tip on...

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I thought it better then posting a new one. Anyway, I am looking for something similar to a M-934, such as the one in this Ebay ad: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=587&item=6500036292&rd=1 $19K is a bit much in my mind, and I'd...

Would you believe there is a company that does nothing but test ex-military vehicles for use in fighting wildfires? Check out: http://www.roscommonequipmentcenter.com/

Hello, SteelSoldiers. Thought I'd check out some MVs other than 715 for a bit, and thought I'd make a suggestion, if you don't mind. I belong to a lot of different Forums but the best I've seen as far as features go is the one that our Airsoft Registry uses. Yeah, yeah, no lip about the...
