    Any one put a turbo on the 250 cummins?

    I think it was mentioned recently that the block has the ability to have piston cooling but the engine does not currently. Power added and you could be looking at a fried piston without a lot of preturbo block and piston prep.

    FONTANA Scrap Yard Run!!! Anyone care to join?

    Just keep some grease in them and they'll be fine. Some have Zerks on the bolt.

    starter bracket/ broken bolt m1008

    You can make one pretty easily. I did this for my BBC starter in my M715. That broken bolt-- You didn't happen to give that a 'sniff' of ether, did you? That's a pretty common side effect of too much ether.

    More efficient Deuce..?

    RE: Rear Hubs Ouverson Engineering will sell you a single double splined axle shaft and one lock-out hub. The lockout is identical to the ones he sells for the front axle. When you don't need that rear axle's help (on-road) just unlock the hub and that axle will 'free-wheel' and you'll...

    Where has it been?

    Did anyone else pick up from JUST the first picture that it was a dropside bed?? Non dropside beds have 5 hinges with one right in the center. Hinge spacing is also different between drop and non-dropside beds. The outer two will work, the next two are off by about 1 hing width too far...

    Any experts? Reo engine from White Semi

    If you're going to pull the engine and discard the rest- Does it happen to have an emblem on it that says 'White Power?' NO- this isn't a hooded, firery cross question! My buddy's last name is White and we happen to see one of those emblems at a junkyard and they've since scrapped the truck...

    Convert M715 to 8 on 6.5"?

    The axle strength on these still depends on how much a person beats on the stupid pedal. It's been argued enough that I feel I can say that it's fairly well accepted that 39" and under and the stock axles will hold up pretty well. Uhm, this is excluding 39" Boggers and amped up big block...I...

    Convert M715 to 8 on 6.5"?

    I can't remember exactly how the thread went but at one point I think someone surmised or actually did do what was needed to get 14 bolt hubs on front or rear. Can't remember exactly...sorry.

    M35 to M34(hub flip, single 11-20's)

    Russian. I found them one time but have since lost that page. Can you give a little more info on those Russian wheels and those meaty tires? Like that plate adapter too!

    Huh...after seeing that weird little magician guy push over a palm tree in Vegas I did surely think the truck was overkill :D

    run ins with law enforcement

    Got pulled over several time for credential checks in my M715 when I had the Dana's and 37" TSL Boggers on it. After it all checked out the cops usually digged it. Funny; after I put the Rockwells and 1100x20 Goodyear Custom Extra Grips on 211 wheels...nothing-- wouldn't even get looked at...

    Deuce winch on 5 ton?

    I found this looking for actual dead pull weights on recovery pulls. This is why I feel strongly that deuce winch is better than no winch AND why it stands a chance of living a long happy live on the nose of a five ton truck. AND, again, if there's anything questionable, throw in a snatch...

    MCinfantry, ever round up those pics again of the cherry picker? I was looking for them as reference on a current post.

    What is this worth? Or should I say - Is it worth anything?

    If you were 12 states closer I might be interested in the rear spring packs. :(
