Toby, the way it is mounted now does stop sideways movement when at ride height but i will certainly look it up, the way it was mounted before on the freightliner was different. I will more than likely drop it lower under the frame if i can but the only thing is it is tight down there and the...

Moti and tobys, you guys are right with that panhard, when it is set at ride height it is true and all but when manually cycling through the different heights it goes out of true. I think i will remount it with a drop bracket off the frame. The way the truck sits it has about a 2" positive rake...

tobys, I think a 4 link is possible may be a pain to bracket it to the axle pumpkin but if you do brackets on the 5x5 and use some of the old mounts for the dogbones you might be in business, the bags on the axle will certainly give a good ride for cruising but im not sure if it would haul well...

Ill have to measure the wheel base but to me personally its a land yacht as the turning radius is kind of large. Better than the duals but since the axle was placed in the center of where the duals were, its not that much better than the last axle's placement. the annular cutters IIRC are...

very nice

Will do but right now they will not clear, we are hung up on how to move the can pairs and what the small cans even do so it is slow going. Frame is all busted down ready to mount everything but we are figuring out how to move the cans in order to fit the bag and shock

So my buddy has been drooling over my bobbed deuce with the dump bed so I sent him a few gl postings for the 5 tons and he was sold. The past two weeks kin d of spiraled out of control. Last week we visited a reseller a few hours away and got advice and the ability to look at them up close. I...

Ok that's good then, ill just go to a more calm DMV. Do the AZ or FL title indicate the # of axles?

What was the wait time from gl for that paperwork vs the nj paperwork and how was registering it since nj has that 10 day limitation on titling

Where in ny are you?

I do it the no fun way except for flying glowing metal slugs. I use a plasma cutter with a gouging nozzle, cut the heads off, blow a little hole in the center then use a pneumatic chisel to punch the hot slugs out. Took all of 15 minutes

I used 1.5" 1/2"-13 grade 8 with washers and lock nuts

ok yeah code 15 is just a non-commercial truck. thanks

dogboy: thanks Turbo: I know QQ is 20 years, and thanks thats a good idea talking to the ins company. I think mine will cover it, they just told me with the deuce that they will do anything with 2 axles under 26001. what reregistration code or structure is that commercial for non-commercial?

I asked a question in the north east chapter about how NJ owners registered and insured their M923's and 5 tons as id like to do a bobbed 923. For other future NJ new owners here is how i did my '66 M35A2 deuce bobber. First i found a truck with an existing title, specifically it was a PA...

I am looking to set up to a M923 but have a few questions for the NJ owners, How do you guys have them registered, insured and inspected in NJ. Or what is everyone doing ownership wise with them? I'm looking to bob a 5 ton so i know i can get it under the 26000 lb mark and air brakes are ok...

Personally i like the look of the original bed plus there is no reason to extend the drive shaft if you do not want to like you would having to match up wheels and wheelwells using a 105. Here is a shot of what i did, took about 4 hrs to cut it and re-weld it
