1100s,G177s.... They're an on road tire after all..

Coming out of the back of my M934, I stumbled on the top step... Basically made a rolling dive off the top..don't know how I did it, but I managed to roll forward as soon as I hit the ground... Nothing hurt but my pride, and for a second there I thought I should try it again because it was so...

Haha Guilty. I was still in the cab though.

Just make sure you got a Class A or B DL, :D

Just curious. We've all had them, and I wanna hear what everyone else has done. I'll be humble and start... I picked up my 5 ton, and on the way back, I decided I should try the emergency shutoff, just in case... So when I went to park the truck and grab some food, I pulled the emergency...

Group 65s Higher CCA but lower reserve. They cranked over for a bit without issue, as I had just replaced the PT pump after fixing a couple leaks... I definitely appreciate the offer, but I got L channel I'm gonna be using.

New batts. New lugs. Temporary strap. Battery cutoff. Room to add 2 more batts and can isolate when not in use so don't have to worry about dissimilar batteries self discharging.

Mine was a rebuild...Didn't help :-p... But yes, it's a crapshoot regardless....

Another factor is age. Older rigs means older rubber... rubber cracks.. The o-ring I pulled from my PT pump was like hard brittle plastic instead of the soft pliable rubber it was supposed to be.... In that respect, newer is better..

NHC250 has more low end torque, and you can add a turbo. There's no replacement for raw displacement. The mouse motors (A2) start better in the cold... The NHC250 does NOT like cold weather... There's no wrong answer, both have their merits.. I prefer the NHC250, due to sheer simplicity...

I hope you were displaying your hazmat placard properly...

I think it was in the Harvey thread where a guy hit something submerged and dented the crap out of his bumper...Heh...

Word of warning. Pay VERY close attention to the batteries and battery cables when you get your rig. In pulling out the bad batteries, I noticed that one was different age and manufacturer, which definitely could be the cause of the self discharge problem that killed my batts. I also triple...

1200s dualed is the way I'd go. You can air them down and have a larger footprint than a 1400 or 385, and each 1200 is rated around 8k lbs vs 12k lbs for the single, which means a dualed double axle has a tire rating of almost 32k lbs, whereas a singled dual axle would be at 24k lbs max tire...

Already quite a lively PNW chapter. https://www.facebook.com/groups/339623506135698/

There is a local group where we plan rallies and offer help/support to PNW steel soldiers members, FYI.... https://www.facebook.com/groups/339623506135698/

Lolol... Not argumentative.... Just a cheeky bastard.. I know what you were doing, I was returning the favor by taking your obvious sarcasm as serious fodder...:razz::beer:
