I have a civilian tag trailer that works just fine. Electric brakes run off a tekonsha, not hard to setup, just a bit fiddly. A larger airbrake model tag trailer should work well. You just have to adapt electrical signals for lights or swap bulbs.

Step out on the running board after setting the hand throttle and hold the steering wheel while you lean around to try to locate the sound... :mrgreen: No, don't really do that.

I'll have to check with the GPS. I could do 66mph at redline with the 1100 NDTs. At Monsterbash this past sunday.

Bought em from a friend who bought a 900 series 5 ton cargo truck. He upgraded to HEMMT rims and 1600s.

And yes, I'll have photos soon. A comparison between an old NDT and a new G177. Oh and yes, Ill be ordering a set of nuts to swap out for the thimbles.

So I've just finished putting the set of G177s on my M35A2. What a difference. Steering is easier, way more traction and the ride is clearly a touch softer. 60 PSI on the rears. 90 PSI on the fronts. Steering is a bit more touchy and probably doesn't have enough understeer but it's not bad...

I've haggled with him over some trucks he had at one time or another. I didn't end up buying but that was mostly because it was tough to get up there to look when I had trucks down here I could directly eyeball. He's done some work for one of the members of my WWII group and I think he did well...

What's wrong with the hard lines?

I figure with their off road racing lines, they should be able to make up some hoses for the truck that'd handle anything I could throw the truck at.

I'm going through my M35's axles right now working my way forwards on general servicing and such and I've been thinking that I want to replace my brake hoses with units from the Aero-quip shop. Steel braided lines would I think be tougher and better long term. Any thoughts on these? Obviously...

Hmmm. Kinda cool. What's the light pattern look like?

Hmm. What's the best source of the appropriate lug nuts?

I have not. Though I've gone rather far with them PA and back and quite a few other trips. What's the problem?

Given I was just about down to the wear bars it was about time....

Oh the suspect tire has been demounted, marked and set aside for a professional to examine.

Trick is I'm going from Bias Ply to Radials and I'm aware that Radials are more sensitive to excessive flex in the tires. I guess that's also coupled to weight too BUT..... I'm thinking about it more because one of the G177 take offs I have appears to have some minor signs of radial zipper...

What temperatures do folks suggest I run the G177 Radials I'm fitting to my Deuce? I've looked at the tables and the rims seem to have a lower pressure range than the tire's recommended pressure does. 120PSI is what Goodyear lists. Should I run that or lower?

Bjorn , did you sell the deuce?

Federally speaking RV's are exempt because they're not used in commerce. If you use them for your business they're not exempt if they go over the weight rating. US a large 40' Motor-coach for your business you need a CDL. Use one for touring as part of a band, your driver needs a CDL. That...
