You are assuming he has an LDS engine in it. However, even if that was the case the trucks equipped with the LDS up front had a much lighter spring rate then the trucks that came with the NHC 250. That is why when you go from a gasser which is close to the same weight as an LDS you have to...

if you change the fronts to 2.5 ton they will go flat under the additional engine weight. not a good idea.

I put 2.5 ton rear springs on all of my bobbed 5 ton's and trailer springs on the deuces. The ride is much better that way.

hey jatonka ever measure out that hood? its an interesting idea.

I do them up here in spokane wa and hundy does them in Cali if that is close enough for you.

I am going to share a trade secret with all of you, this is something that we used to change inner wheel seals in the field. Step by step DO NOT DISMOUNT THE TIRES FROM THE TRUCK, IF YOU ARE SUPER SINGLED THIS WILL NOT HELP YOU!! 1.remove outer bolts holding in axle and remove axle. 2. remove...

maybe i did not put it the right way up above. I am not recommending swapping 5 ton running gear, yes the frames are the same width and the rest of the hardware in the bogie will be reused to mount the deuce axles into the 5 ton bogie so everything should swap right over. You would have to get...

nice work, its funny how many of you guys are on the west side, i feel like the lone gun over here with my toys...;)

with all of the 16's under a deuce questions that seem to resurface time and time again, why couldn't you slide the bogie from a 5 ton underneath a deuce and take some leaves out of the pack? sure beats cutting stretching and welding the dogbones in my opinion, especially for the "less...

something tells me that if they are being used for "Domestic applications" that they will never see up armor, besides who wants to pick on the wimpy kid anyways?

that tow bar looks like a back breaker to lift:x

I am pretty sure those are OD iron wheels. For those asking about dishing the wheels in you cannot do it with the stock wheels and big tires without tubbing the rear wheel wells 4"on each side and that is assuming that the rear hubs have already been flipped. Thanks again for your business! Eldgen

thats a transfer case pto you are looking at.

the tires are 14.5 /80r20 I believe, I know the 14.5 part is right its the other I am not too sure on, call around to some of the local surplus guys and try to find one.

You are right, my bad, I would think that if you had access to a disk sander or belt sander you should be able to do it with the buds, at $3 a piece for the studs and the agony of dealing with 5 ton hardware I would try the buds first if it were me.

He has a GOOD point, the bud nuts will allow the center of the rim to FLEX and in time crack, I had not fhought of this till his post how do you figure? the hemtt wheels are beveled on both side so it can be mounted dish in or dish out. When you use the buds on the rear the duals fit...

that is unreal, I bed there are less than a handfull of outfits that can supply that kind of service. Amazing

Yeah, he is the maker of them. not kidding.:mrgreen:

excellent work I am very impressed, a question, did you do the body lift because of the air compressor? turbo? just curious and sorry if it was covered before, a lot to read. I really like the work you did on the trailer bed, small details make the difference!!:grd:

judging by his avatar I would say it has long been completed.
