Something like this would keep things tight though you'd have to relieve the 5 ton center hole for the deuce studs, then chamfer them and the adapter as a unit for the deuce lug nuts to seat. You'd use 8 lugs to hold the 5 ton wheel to the adapter.

The 10 hole bolt circle is much larger compared to the deuces 6. The 8-3/4" deuce bolt circle is the diameter of the center hole in a typical 10 hole wheel. The deuce hub would need to be almost 2" lager PER SIDE. That'd be some mega machining time there. That guy is Randy Ouverson of...

Man that's a good looking truck! Love the Continentals and owner fabbed wheels!!! NICE JOB!!!

A buddy of mine has quit bidding all together. He bid on a specific M1028 truck. Bid was run up by another party until he quit bidding and suposedly went to the other bidder. Next auction cycle it was there again. Same outcome. Next cycle, same truck again. He emailed GL to find out that...

Well, it's used to holding up the whole front of the truck all by it's lonesome...that's gotta be worth something. Aren't lockers usually put in the middle of that three axle truck...like first tandem? I do believe that when I put the single spring in the truck I bobbed, the truck back was...

Prolly gonna be like $250 for ship, I'd guess. Paid more than that shipping them in from CA. LOL! I can prolly get out of them at a buck and a half a wheel. PM me, we'll see what we can come up with. I have some other details for you anyway- LOVE THEM CRANES MAN!!!

Heh,heh...Yep- still kicking. :)

Do yourself a favor and don't be nice in any way to the rivets and bolts holding the rear suspension on. What I did was cut off the heads, then burn a hole through the center of them. I could not pound them out other wise. Cutting the suspension tower rivets is fun as you're all wedged in on...

I like that tank for the bobbed projects as it takes up what can be a large gap when the bed is installed and axle moved up a bit. Good to see ya Kenny!

I've got the 3208's predecessor in mine. A 225hp N/A 1160 V8 CAT. It's got a rear sump pan and I'm back tight to the firewall. Machined the stock aluminum adapter plate from tranny bell to engine bell to fit the CAT, then needed a slightly longer T/O bearing. Machined face off one and rear...

Hummin2London- If ya hang your head out the window while driving are your tires tracking dead straight or wobbling a little bit. I've had NO luck with POS6x6 WHAT SO EVER.

From what I've found from different posts in different sites- 3052 is early gas REO ONLY 3053 is early diesel and perhaps non turbo and .85:1 overdrive 5th 3053A seems to be what is found behind any of the turbo multifuels and repowers. 3053B is supposed to have a .75: 1 overdrive but only a...

What about these? Has anyone tried them? I play on trying the ones in the first link in my deuce to quite the CAT V8 howling through a mufflerless pair of stock stacks. The write up would lead one to believe that the flow qualities wouldn't restrict flow much to affect turbo...

I just did one...sold it to a buddy of mine before I even had the brakes bled. Most people really don't need as much truck as the stock M35's are. Most don't need what the bobbed trucks still are but they're different and pretty cool. Yes, the *should* get better milage (don't look for...

Oh my...how about just slapping in another set of front springs like you would on a bobbed deuce project. I just did this. The pic, not tried, kind of gives a look as to how this may look with the stock suspension still there...by other axle location. This should work, take care of itself and...

Check the tank on this old rig.

M1075, do you have wheels for those 5 ton axles? I've got (7) 5 ton 20 bolt beadlocks I'm debating of what to do with.

Thanks for the link Stretch!!!

Memphis Equipment has told me they have either of the two tranny PTO's. Prepare yourself if you ask the price on the double output jobbie. YOW!
