    single rear axle 5 ton

    I used a set of front 5ton springs and hangers- I'll probably throw a M105 bed on it. But I thought about a flat bed with the rear dove tailed??? not sure right now. Thanks Vinny

    single rear axle 5 ton

    Heres a couple of pics of my 818 bobbed- I keeped the frt axle in the same spot and will have to cut the rear frame about 14"-16" to fit right. But I think you could use the full frame and center the bed and axle to work.I hope this helps. Vinny

    Chris, I had the same issue with my old duce, looked like a leak at the rear main. I pulled it apart, seal looked like new??? I changed it anyway and no more leaks. I think you doing the right thing, change it while you can get to it. Vinny

    turbo on a NHC 250 Cummins?

    You can put a turbo on the 5ton with mods, I have seen it done with parts from a 290 swapped with turbo only and turbo and injector pump. I also have seen a BIG CAM engine swap and it was about twice as many mods to the engine mounting, oil filter location, cooling inlet, etc. I have no photos...
