"6BT weighs approximately 1000# dry..." found on a swap site. Cool swap, multifuel in pick up- yep. Freak...somewhat, but not as much of a freak as the front axle you'll have to put in. :) I have, however, seen 3208 CAT in late '80's Chevy dually. Don't know what was done though-

most likely combat (double beadlock) wheels with 1600x20 XZL Michelins.

RE: tow mod Another thing that can be done is to flip the trailers drawbar over. If you notice it comes out then bends up and levels out again. Flipping that over can give maybe 4-5" drop. That takes a decent about of leverage away from the trailer and hitch on the trucks receiver. It's...

RE: Re: RE: deuce frame attachment I had to drill 24, 5/8" holes thru my frame when I mounted the M977 crane and outriggers. I took two drill sizes before I got to the 5/8" drill bit. That way I only needed to use a BF drill for the last size hole. I only broke one drill bit when the BF...

Huh...ya got me then. I must have been smart at one time or another. Seriously, I drew up the three patterns from dimensions I found online for the SAE patterns. HA...(LOL) I can't remember doing this, but I could see myself drilling into the bell housing and moving those two holes in so I...

If I may add- deuce application engine bellhousing pattern has like 8 or 9 bolts that are of the SAE pattern then has the other several moved. For instance if you go back up and look at the pic I posted; the two bottom most holes in the aluminum adapter ARE on pattern for typical SAE. The...

I agree with Barrman completely on this and will add some. These have a much larger/deeper lockring than the typical civvy/commercial lockrings that have the public scared walk around the vehicle. It's not just the groove, it's the entire ENTIRE tire's bead that keeps the ring from expanding...

Well...here's the pic I had mentioned-

Like those tires!

HRD, I had that EXACT problem when I went to put the CAT V8 in my deuce. I think the multifuel may be a #1 but it's not a true one because there is one or two bolt holes moved from true SAE patterns. Like around the recess for the winch drive shaft, etc. I found the dimensions online for the...

" This is a REAL Military Humvee... It will come with a few different serial numbers you can use, and will also come with the VIN number (above) from a '96 Hummer H1 if you need it. The body tag is blank and ready to put in whatever you want. It is presently registered in Iowa as a 96...

Just bought one on ebay about 14 seconds ago- 502 pages wow!

RE: lug nut On the '53 REO I had for a little while it had a busted front out axle shaft. I couldn't get the lugs loose by any ordinary (cheating with pipe) means. What I ended updoing was taking the socket, breaker bar, and 5' pipe lenth, putting them on the lug nut...then at the end of the...

Congrats on your efforts!

Ha! I was waiting for you- :) Those HEMTT axles do too, huh? ...and your trailer? :D

I'll look at mine tomorrow and see where the serial #'s are stamped-

Got back to this...pic of data plate and location:

RE: Mil-to-chevy hook up That extension you built is plenny strong...but that's possibly the bad part. (don't get me wrong, I LIKE IT!...nice and beefy!) the problem is the cantilever effect it can have on your truck frame. The receiver on the truck is sturdy. It's recommended anytime you...

I'd try Saturn's before I'd try Memphis again- Last time I bought wipers there it was the 'updated' version that was supposted to be much more durable. I put them on my M715 and the next day it was laying on the cowl as it had broken overnight from it's own spring pressure. The broken casting...

Even though I was up for just the ride along (no trailer for big M715 and deuce not quite ready) I had a great time and it was nice to meet a new bunch of truck guys- Nice pics #2!!
