been 2 years now so hard to remember exactly, but I know I had my SF-97, and the invoice/bill of sale showing how much I paid for it, along with how much tax I had to pay. Without that you'd have to pay full value for the local tax rate. The licensing office only made me pay the difference...

Welcome to the group. There is also a facebook group for the Pacific NorthWest military vehicle owners that goes by a related name (PNW Steel Soldiers) if you're interested. We do occasional group activities with our rigs, but most of us seem to be based on the westside here so this is where...

I don't have any of those yet, or for quite a while if I have any say over the matter, so I have to figure out how to do these things by myself still :p

Good to see there are several things going on; too bad they are both on the same weekend. Yes, one is there to "support veterans" while the other is just a bunch of people with military trucks or equipment or whatever just hanging out. Unfortunately with a lower population density, there just...

torque pattern evenly spaced Torque pattern paired studs (in case the earlier image is hard to read) I use either a sharpie (hard to see but works) or a paint marker and go around the rim labeling every stud in it's torque sequence so I don't get lost/confused and miss tightening any nuts down.

those aren't the clearest for the torque pattern, so here: Evenly spaced paired I like to use a sharpie or a paint marker and go all around the rim, numbering the studs in sequence before I start, otherwise it's very difficult to know where you're supposed to be at in the sequence.

So I stole that image from another thread here; the manual I have downloaded is an older one from before the 24 bolt wheels. As Action said, it's the same torque values as the paired stud wheels, but looking at the manual on my phone (very slow computer internet) it is a different torque...

Just for reference for next time, the paired 24 stud wheels only get torqued to 110 lb-ft, not the 125 that the 12 stud rims get tightened to.

Those 38" should fit no problem, stock is 37" You might not be able to run full size tire chains with them though, if that is a concern. If your suspension is good (and it's not uncommon for the springs to sag on these, so check them), you can do up to 40" tire without a lift. The reason...

I had one on my truck, ended up being more hassle than it was worth to me. made the truck wider so it couldn't fit through the 4x4 trails as well. Made the BEOD I had on the back of the truck harder to access. left trails of black soot down the side of my truck whenever it rained and water got...

yeah, just hook straight to the terminals of the battery and you should be fine. Equalizer is definitely the best solution.

If you don't want to go the battery equalizer route (the best way to go with the 24V systems without the 12V center tap), at least do a 24-12V converter. But you should also be doing a full charge with the NOCO on the rear battery every month to make sure it's brought up, even if you have to...

Follows the same theory as the $100 hamburger (for those that don't know it, it's the excuse a pilot might use to go take a flight in their airplane)

The only reason I can see for buying the 804 over the 803 is because, being 3 phase only, the 804 usually has a cheaper price compared to the 803. That's the only reason I've ever really seen for people buying it over the 803 (provided they knew what they were doing)

Went for a drive; found a rainbow.

Isn't there a classifieds section for this type of posting?

That is what I have heard. I have no firsthand experience with his products, but I have yet to see an angry review or comment about anything he has.

yup, first step is always verify where the issue is, because military gauges are mostly there just to give you an idea of what it's doing, and you only worry when it's different than you are used to. The TMs for this unit are all here...

have you verified with a multimeter that the voltage gauge is reading correctly?
