    XM818A2w/w

    14.50 r 20s came from m35a3 with the faulty ctis they sit around flat. Which damages the side walls. So once you start running them big chance for blow out. I have about 16 or so and at least half are questionable when aired up

    A few tire questions related to snow/chains...

    Flip the hubs put 395 goodyear mvt set of chains for front axle go any where you want within reason. I wouldn't worry to much on spare unless you traveled long distance. You can always put rear tire on front and chain the rear axle to frame to get home.

    Bobbed M925

    Justin I think you will find if you don't plumb the bags so they can release and take on new air the ride will suck. Air can only compress so far. Call me and I'll try to explain better.

    The suzuki is not what I thought we were talking about. Can't imagine why you were thinking your sleeping was cramped on the way home.

    Cummins NHC 250 vs 6CTA 8.3 opinions

    For me it would boil down to use and terrain. If it was to be used as it came from uncle and as a hobby truck I would pick the 8.3 it's a very solid combo with a good auto. But if your working logging, oil feilds or just want power 855 at least a 350 small cam with jakes stock tranny could live...

    Will a deuce run on refrigeration oil?

    In my own hillbilly test truck I have been burning used refrige oil for a couple years. Not in large amounts 30 or so gals at a time half a dozen times a year or so. I cannot smell a difference in it or wmo at the exaust. Truck runs same would burn more if it was avalible. Thats all I can add.

    Transfer case adj.

    Not sure what is bad but with truck shut of in neutral air is leaking out trans valve. In a couple minutes it'll drain tanks but it's not noticable driving it.

    Transfer case adj.

    I have a bad valve on my 818 and have been wondering if a 3 way valve would work? Middle neutral one way for forward other direction for reverse. I have read where guys have used 2 seperate valves but seems more complicated to me but I'm sure theres a reason for the 2 valves.

    looking into buying a M275. advice?

    My deuce tractor is the truck I like best is it practical not at all. If I need to haul anything I mostly use the 818. But every time I think of gitting rid of the little tractor I just couldn't. The 5ton would go first.

    Shackle Pin Grease Problem

    Heat will also work. But you have to remove the zerk or it will ruin the spring inside of it. If you use the heat method be careful not catch anything on fire.

    Just a rant and some info

    The country has gone mad. With the welfare mentality no respect for elders parents that don't care or afraid of a child abuse charge for disaplining there kids. There is not much hope for us in my opinion. It seems every generation gets worse. If the country would have a work for it attitude...
