    Rumblin Wreck Build

    there's no trouble in installing a 12V alternator. this system has a few advantages over a converter. specially with a multifuel, installation is a snap. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce-modification-hot-rodding/56451-2nd-alternator-12v-7.html#post1174226

    M35 Alternative Transmissions?

    how much are we're talking about? 1-2", 10" ? I've no idea! I've often thought about an 8-speed, that would be a good improvement. close ratio, 8th overdrive. great for pulling and hills. I've no idea what transmission can fit. what about moving the engine a bit forward and the transfercase...

    2nd and 3rd Tank

    yup. And i guess the M109 hasn't realy 5000 lbs due the higher weight of the box. Maybe 4000lbs? The 2 tanks weigh approximately 400 lbs. And with a bit interior in the box, water on board, aso you get really quick really heavy. I tought about a second tank many times, if i would do this, i...

    2nd and 3rd Tank

    huh! :shock: you did miss something. 1st. the weight hangs "outbord" off the frame , that not the same as weight even distributed on the truck bed or box floor. Means more stress (torsion) on the frame. But this is with a tank in the original size and dimension neglectable. 2nd. with our...

    2nd and 3rd Tank

    for my opinion to much weight....i would use a M105 for the WMO tank, with a pump, big filters & water separator as a fuel processing unit if necessary. advantage: only clean fuel in the trucks system and you can run a defined blend between WMO and diesel. just my 2 cents.
