I wanted to start a thread that would help members to be able to recognize ex-military gensets that have been stranded / distressed or abandoned in hopes that more can be saved from becoming overseas steel. I dont know if i can have rules on a thread but i hope everyone follows, RULE #1 ---...

Rob, sorry i have been real busy the last few days, shoot me a pm.

not great in the snow (be carefull when turning) they do good for what they are on a sraight away. Chains shure would be sweet. i wish i could fit them on mine :drool:

The pins in the first pic on this thread where made from bolts. I made Shure no threads where there. Is anyone else in need of these pins? I can do the 1in ones also.

ok, i think i have found a lil info on "bolt strengh" Please tell me if this sounds right, Grade 8 @ 1in = 80,000lb tensile strength so in theory Grade 8 @ 3/4 = 60,000lb right? shear strength = %60 of the tensile strenght so Grade 8- 3/4 = 36,000lb shear strength 2 x 36k = 72k (bar is...

finished blasting and painting the tow bars this weekend. I bought new stickers from left cost customs and man do they look great. (of corse i put them on wrong do to being distracted) Also finished up a few more pins to complete everything.

ever seen a used half ton truck that never had more than 1000lb in the bed???? lol

i did see a coment on here or feebay from austin saying he has a shortage of pins. I will defiantly check with him again though. Thanks for the info & comments on the pins guys!

So i have a couple of questions, I recently bought two tow bars that where missing a few things. One of them is complete, but the other is in need of pins, 1 leg and 1 foot. Question #1 Are grade eight bolts as strong as the 3/4in pins???? I ask because i made some pins fron 3/4 #8 bolts and...

It's the planetary gears set that makes the noise u hear. It's fine.

the spindles are the same (as long as you have internal lockouts), however just a heads up, the brake backing plates are differnt between 1/2 & 3/4

wow, thats not "Drdstny" under a new name is it?

No, blazers use all four clips

do they make olive drab legos?????????????????? I must know the answer to this and if so where can i buy them!

axle shafts are 28

its the wrong u-joint for a 1008, shouldn't have inside snap rings on 2 of the caps

not being rude, but 12bolt "T" isnt worth the price of new u-bolts around here. Another option is a SF14 bolt 9.5 6-lug, there pretty stout.

first off, buy another cucv, not for the axles but just to have two. second, a 3/4 ton wether it be a 44 or 8.5 will probly be fine for your app if your running a 6.2. I recently ripped a 44 apart at the ball joints with 39.5 boggers but thats in a full size long box 84 chevy & 500+ hp. and that...

What is this talk of a bad batch?????????? Please enlighten me, anyone.
