Fun numbers just FYI: Modern fans like a 2008 Freightliner Cascadia with DD15 take 45 horsepower to operate (dyno tested).

They didn't post any other photos. Maybe this is the last shot the camera got... A mid-explosion fireball pic would have been epic!

I didn't find a picture of a tractor moving a Tomahawk, but I did find a perfectly timed still shot of a tractor about to be moved BY a Tomahawk...

I read on another forum where a guy mentioned that Oshkosh made an ICBM hauler that was an M911 chassis but with a different custom-made body on it. The pictures were no longer available, thanks to photobucket, but that could be the rig your buddy remembers.

The Oshkosh M911 has a pretty long nose and triple axles, but no idea if they used it as a missile transport.

The Terex MX

Those look good - I like how tucked up they are. It looks like the blade is not inline with the arm...did you bend the tip of the arm?

My coworker was a Marine stationed at 29 Palms and when they switched to cd-rom manuals he pulled this operator's manual out of a garbage can on base and later gave it to me when I got my M813:

Hmmm...what if someone else in your household who didn't make an agreement uploaded the files?...

He said they're 9.00-R20s where stock would've been 11.00-R20 so they're smaller (M35 size)

So did the excitement start with your engine dropping a valve?

Because of the varying conditions and unknown functionality of used components i sourced my 4-person VIC-1 system from recodefense who is a vendor on this site. They're a DOD refurbisher of VIC-1s and can supply the amplifier, the crew boxes, and even radios but you would be on your own for...

Which of these CPLs matches with M809 engines? I've read on this forum that 026 is the closest match but these charts also have a listing for 172 and 709 for the NHC-250

Do you know which tranny is on the new engine? If you don't have to worry about a pto for a winch maybe you could make that one fit?

That's a bummer about the engine going TU. Looks like luckily you have a shop to work in 😀. I've been reading a lot about getting 700-900 HP out of these 855 cummins mostly by lowering compression, retarding cam timing, and upping the fuel delivery. It would be fun for a few minutes until...

I have that same sound in my M813's VIC-1; kinda sounds like the truck has a turbo. Would a filter simply wire inline with the positive cable for the 1780 amplifier?

Now that's a find!

How far into the engine do you plan to go?

Does a slower motor mean it needs to be greased or is the passenger side usually slower because of the longer air hose?

His install looks very clean and well routed. I like it! Another location option would be the top rear of the cab: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/vic-1-intercom-panel-for-soft-tops.188122/
