    How much can a 5 ton tow?

    They will handle 100,000 lbs and keep cooking. My dad and uncles moved houses when I was young and he will tell you if you can get it on wheels a five ton will move it. Here's a picture I have posted before.

    Rebuilt truck worth the price?

    RRAD are what I call lipstick rebuilds, mainly paint, I have seen probably 100+ trucks with fresh RRAD rebuilds at Camp Shelby awaiting rebuild with less than 50 miles on them since they were so called rebuilt. I have 2 great looking trucks at my house that both have bad motors and fresh...

    Chevy/Ford Body on deuce frame??

    You need to check with the state you are going to be doing it in, a lot of them use the frame as the base of a build.

    What is the canister on the inside of the front bumper, driver side?M923A2

    That is a bypass oil filter and they work great normally it was probably made in Mississippi as all of the units I have seen were. I would keep it if you can get it to working properly, they are expensive to buy but not to maintain. Would love pictures of where the other line goes.

    Radios, aging, and corrosion

    When I worked in corrosion control we would wash the gear in a dishwasher then dry it off and spray it down with dry cleaning solution and then bake it in a oven then spray some parts with a shellac or paint while the part was still hot. And yes this was done to electronic equipment, actually...

    1729 vs 6707

    Sorry up front about the nomenclature for I am a newbie about the radios I have 10 rt524's that I need to get up and going. From what I have read both antennas can be used but the 1729 is best. Is this true and if so would it hurt my radios to use the 3900? These will be used for the Mississippi...

    M936 Boom hoist mod to double cable length?

    I believe that this is a good way to get the extra line you need and would give you more power as you get deeper into the drum. I was also told by a Alabama tow company, maybe the OP here, that they now require two winches per boom and I got to thinking about how to mount the second winch under...

    M936 Boom hoist mod to double cable length?

    Okay the booms on our wreckers are not weak but are under rated by the military for safety reasons. The boom and winch on a 816 or 936 are rated at 20,000 lbs the testing of them by the military is only 10,000 lbs which I know to be only for unsupported boom lifts, as I have watched the test and...
