    Towing a M105a2 w/ civilian Pick Up ?

    Alrighty then. Consider these few items. So many of us (myself included) have often tried to figure out if we could and failed to ask if we should. Physics applies to everyone and everything here. Crisis is a term we should consider. One form of crisis is "Wholly crap, my 15,000# truck is...

    Towing a M105a2 w/ civilian Pick Up ?

    Safely and successfully don't necessarily go hand in hand. With that said, I'd bet we would be hard pressed to find someone on Steel Soldiers that hasn't been overweight before. I know I sure have and that is exactly why threads like this serve to remind us to use better sense!

    A big big thanks to to Andyrv6av8R

    5 tons of fun, 5 tons of problems! Recovry4x4, downsizing trucks since 2001. Just stay vigilant. A 400 Turbo falling on you is survivable, one of those huge juice boxes, not so much.

    M146 box on a 5 ton?

    The expando is 17' and the 146 box 22'. Even if you relocate exhaust and spare rack, I think you will overhang more than a foor. It should be just fine except for towing.

    Historical Responsibility?

    Much rather see gloss paint rather than the Sawzall Specials coming out of the woodwork.

    M1009 Brake Pad Question

    Infrared gun. Monitor and.compare temps. Only treatment for binding calipers is clean and lubed slides. Binding pistons require rebuild or replace. If temps are similar on both sides, odds are you will be fine.

    Deuce towing capability

    This might help the novice deuce owner. I planned all of my highway exits at overpasses. Never got off at an underpass or at the bottom of a hill. The incline helps slow the stop and helps the merge speed.

    New project-M59

    That M59 is well traveled for not being road worthy.

    I was in TX But they let me go.

    Be careful there Sir. That might end up getting him assigned another government number.

    700r4 conversion

    You can thank that little bark on the 3.06 first gear. Really helps get the truck moving.
