    Which look do you prefer... Modern or Traditional

    Do what you want, all that bling can go in the scrap pile in the future when it's time for a proper restoration. Just don't apply that awful rhino coating. I spent a week once removing that rust encapsulating crap from a GPA.

    Ground issue?

    Changing The Growler Tires

    No I don't. I found the post I was thinking about, the O ring is 15", but no cross section is discussed. You will have to disassemble the wheel again to measure or there is also a new Growler forum unrelated to Steelsoldiers where someone may know. Maybe you can do the dismount next time by...

    Changing The Growler Tires

    Oh no don't use silicone or you will never ever get the rim apart again for nail hole patches etc. There was a post in the Growler forum where someone asked about the O ring I recall. You MUST use new O rings or you will have leaks just like you are. The O rings in 16" sizes can be bought...

    M920 wheel and tire help

    Guys I would not recommend goofy MK48 tires/rims to fire departments. They need tires they can find and have repaired at local truck tire shops.

    Pete's Mechanical Services - BEWARE!!!!

    That is entirely your fault. It is impossible to blast something like that and not have to overhaul it afterwards. Next time wire wheel it.

    Those 24.5's are very common on log trucks and vacuum trucks. The 22.5s are used on highway trucks. Both sizes use "10 hole Budd" pattern, stud centered.

    M1088 Upgrades

    MTP has a very impressive facility in western Louisiana where they rebuild all sorts of powertrain items on contract with DOD and sometimes OEMs that have DOD contracts to rebuild their own trucks. The trucks such as HMMWVs are not brought to MTP for the installation of the engines, rather...

    M920 wheel and tire help

    Tell your supplier you need common 24.5 rims not 22.5. That grinding rim process was so private owners could use HEMMT rims on the front axle, and should not be done on a government owned vehicle.
