Great truck recovery story. Glad you were able to handle that blowout and brakeline issue. Must be a good truck to make the trip as well as it did..congrats [thumbzup]

Wasn't knocking the muffler at all, Was just making a silly camo joke . You got a great looking deuce and trailer. :-)

What muffler? :roll: someone had to say it

That Gemplers price is a great price! I just bought 1 of them for 10 bucks at a local ag tire repair shop. I have heard that there is 3 o-ring possibilities on those combat wheels and untill you open em up, you wont know what you have. Also the 1/4" x 20 round works on about 90% of the combat...

Welcome from Mn. Enjoy the site and the MV addiction.

Any updates on this bombi275? I would like to know if you overcame the problem and what the offending component was for sure. Got a 817 myself and ya never know whats going to turn up in the future.

Sweet lookin truck! bet that thing will be handy too. Hard to beat for a farm service truck.

Hey Camp, how did your recovery trip go and have you got that 1031 to wake up yet?

If I were you and had an air assist unit sitting there, I would put it on and go. It should be plenty to reduce the fatigue on those all day outings. As far as hydraulic power steering goes, it has been done quite a few times and shown here on SS. Here is a couple of links...

Man, I know what you are saying . As much as I enjoy this website and spending time on the net, I TOO SHOULD BE FARMING. Havent done a thing yet and had 1.5 inch soaking rain yesterday. More t-storms coming Sat. they say. So here I am . I think that is a good idea to trailer if you can...

Not going there tomorrow. Good luck on the recovery. Are you planning on driving it home or trailering?

I wonder if that filter is capable of handling what that pump can dish out. Guess that will come out in the trial and error. Looks like it just might work. Good luck

Here appears to be a source. Integrated Parts Systems - Control Box 5 Ton=

Yep, I did a search, this was a very informative thread about the control box. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/5-ton-up/29557-no-start-bad-control-box.html

I know I might get a spankin' for this but what does the control box control? I see one bolted on the firewall of the 817 but it must work I figured as it starts, runs, charges..So what does the darn thing do?

Yes that is a very nice piece of work. There will be plenty of room now. I was wondering when an update was coming on this. Thanks !

I think you could fit a NTC400 right in that Nova :mrgreen: Thanks for posting the pics and for me the verdicts in. You can do it and do it pretty tastefully.

I think the hood mod could be cool if done right. Is there any examples out there to see like the forementioned truck? I would like to see how its been done in the past. I think I know what your saying Danger Ranger. Kinda like an old Trans Am or something but done mil style

Wow, started up pretty easy! To me thats a good sign that it will respond well to just getting a little care. So with those mods you listed you must be planning on loosing the shop body huh? Forgive me if you said that early in the thread. It has been awhile
