I've had several Big Blue 400's and I currently have a Big Blue 500 with the Duetz engine. For welding they can't be beat. For power generation, they're more than most people need. They're quieter than a MEP802. I've had a dozen or so MEP802s, and have two currently. With a little bit of load...

Yours is an M1009. Different gear ratio.

1989 should be an A2... Post a picture of your engine please.

I've got 16.00s and hemtt rims on my M925. My M925 is mostly a toy, although it occasionally makes long trips pulling trailers. I've got 14.00s on my M936A2. I'll be putting 11.00s on it for better low end and greater stability. As US6x4 says above, if your dumptruck is primarily a toy...

My poor hmmwv could really use some Hawkers. The set I had in it (dated 2010!!!) finally died... now it's limping along on a couple of 'normal' batteries.

They held my wrecker, which weighs almost 40,000lbs.

I like your idea of doing one at a time. Safer that way. I've done all 6 at once more than once. Learn from my mistakes. Don't skimp on safety devices. I did it with harbor freight jack stands, and they recalled them for being defective afterwards.... Get some good ones, like the ones...

I've got some i used on my M936A2. I'll get pics for you tomorrow. I got them at tractor supply.

By "grow" you mean heat expansion?

Is he cross-eyed or does it just look like it in this pic?

Those work. Not my first choice as they leave the fragile valve stem rather exposed. I've broken more than one valvestem on those... But they're priced right, and a pronounced improvement from what you've got now.

The path of least trouble and least complexity is to get the aluminum MRAP rims that are shown on my deuce in the picture. I had no issues with them, but my steering was stock. I'm not sure if there's an issue with your aftermarket steering.

Stock wheels and 395s are a bad idea.

Do you have an air shift tcase or sprag?

I wonder if HEMTTs were deliberately excluded or if that was an unintended consequence.

Please elaborate...

This should answer your question...

My understanding is that the 809 and older trucks used shorter wheel studs up front.

It's not an LMTV rim. I'm not certain what it is. I suspect that it is some flavor of MRAP rims and not compatible with 5ton trucks.
