I was going to mount this 20,000 lbs. on my M35A3 but changed my mind, too much trouble with the hydraulic system. I got one of these 24 volt, it will be easy now.

You can find a champion here on the borad in the southeast for your cause that will be going to the 2014 SS.

Follow me if you can at the 2014 SS in GA.

Thats funny, last year on the trails at the 2013 SS the 2 1/2 ton 6x6 guys would not follow me where i went.

I think i will bring the complete package.

Rockwell changed their symbol to the twin rivers around 1973, becomes Meritor in 1997 and them Arvin Meritor in 2000 and then Axletech in late 2002. The LMTV- M1078 and the FMTV- M1083 did their feild trials in 1992 and failed, the big brass said we need a stop gap truck and in 1993 the M35a3...

I am planning on coming and for all those people that keep me from coming to the last 2 events can go jump in the lake, i am going.

Disc brakes on the M135 will be a big challenge. Rotors on the hubs will be easy, it is the rest of it. I have no proportion valve in my truck.

The LMTV's came with a (3.90) 7.80 final drive axle. There are many other FMTV's that use the same axle with a (3.07) 6.14 final drive axle. All you need to do is change the chunk assembly with a 3.07 chunk. I have been working with these axles for 14 years.

Welcome fron winter haven, FL. Will you be able to make it to the Memorial Day parade on 5-26-2014 in sanford?

Really, my M105 springs work better than 2 1/2 ton front springs.

The A3 rims with the rubber bead locks - the ones that came with the A3 rims.

Yes i mounted the 14.00 x 20 on the A3 rims with the rubber bead lock. I have over 6,000 miles now on the 14.00's. I balanced my tires, you can balance (stand it up) a nickel on the dash at 60 mph.

Hey buddy, i sure wanted to go but wife and daughters were going to hang me if i did not go to my birthday party that saturday. I would much rather have someone riding with me on the road and on the trails.

You should ride with me in my A3 at 60 mph with 2,800 rpm's for 500 miles one way. OR 5 ton with 16.00x20 = 1,746 rpm

5 ton axles with 6.44 and 43" tire and just the 37% OD at 65 mph = 2,171 rpm, save a lot of money. OR 14.00x20 tires 65 mph at 1,894 rpm.

It will cost you more than $3,600.00 , shipping + bearings + seals + labor. 65 mph X 43" tire X 4.90 ratio X 37% OD = 1,667 rpm?

Really? 4.90 ratio gear set change X 3 chunks = $5.500.00 + 37% OD. You looking at doing 120 mph?

The two major things that breaks axles are torque and tire size. Rockwell has a max. GVW rating of 12,000 lbs ea. axle. This 6v92 needs to be installed in a 5 ton.

Chevy and ford dana 60 front is 69 1/4" wms. A large part of the info. for billvista's bible can from me.
