    6 Ton Jack Stands....for a single tire swap?

    My advice is to take it to a "truck" tire shop that deals with large heavy vehicles. They will not even blink at doing a tire on your size truck. Most "car" tire places will have problems. And yes two 6 ton jack stands should be fine to hold up one axle. Get a 20 ton bottle jack.

    M35-a3 can you make it a true 6 wheel drive?

    Have you actually gotten stuck in the mud or just had it slip and slid some? Step 1: air down - cost = free Step 2: chains - cost = varies but not too bad ( maybe $300?) Step 3: upgrade tires - cost = varies probably around $200 per tire these are all cheaper and easier than lockers.

    Lack of Sealed Bid Results

    You will find that GL is an often criticized company on here. I believe they don't actually "own" the surplus but just get a certain percentage of the sale price once sold. We actually had a GL representative on here awhile ago but she left due to all the complaints that she really did not...

    9.00x20 Tire Question

    Another hint/tip is to use a Hi-Lift jack if you have one. put the tire under a vehicle with a good bumper, place the jack on the tire where you want the bead to break and start lifting the vehicle. Done a few that way.

    5 ton air cleaner question

    The M39 series trucks that have the gas engine (Continental 6602) do not have any fender mounted air cleaner, its inside the engine compartment. As far as which is better, its a matter of personal preference but the Macks are pretty rare and I like rare trucks!

    5 ton air cleaner question

    Yep, if its on the passenger side fender then its an LDS multi-fuel or a Mack ENDT. Open the hood and if you see a crossover tube on top, then its a Mack and you should buy it!!!:grd:

    I wanted to pick your brains and see if you could help me with what could be a major

    A permanent fix is to adjust the sprag and make sure its working correctly. There are a ton of threads on here about it.

    I wanted to pick your brains and see if you could help me with what could be a major

    is it an air shift or sprague type t-case? If its a sprague then its probably binding up and not allowing it to turn in reverse.

    Found an M543 (I think)

    As far as the tranny/bellhousing, the multi should bolt right up to it but you would want an overdrive tranny, the gasser tranny is a direct drive I believe, you would be limited in your speed. I would not put a LDT or LD from a deuce in your wrecker. They lack power in a 13,000lbs deuce...
