    Maryland MV owners are in trouble

    well , you can always farm area tag them. with farm tags you can register it up to 80k with no state inspection. You are supposed to have 3.5 acres for farm status, but this is never checked. A buddy of mine has one acre waterview property and claimed farm status. farm tag means no cdl,dot, or...

    Hardcore Pawn bobbed 5 ton

    not worth even close to 19k, I thought les was a sharp buisness man untill he offered 10k for it. If that guy has even close to that amount in that truck I feel sorry for him. If im dropping that kind of coin it better be somthing special.

    m818or m923a1 what would you buy ?

    go with a 923, the a2 is the most expensive type followed by the a1, then the std m923. all are worlds better than the older 5 tons, like 2 totally different trucks. they ride better, easier to drive, much better brakes, etc.

    Straight Piped A3 Today!

    I actually like how quiet my buddies a3 is, you can actually hold a conversation without sreaming, and it is convenient not to have to wear my shooters earmuffs everytime i go for a ride, but to each his own.

    Why not detroit 50 series in deuce?

    Dont worry the deuce front axle can take the extra weight :D The torque increase will take care of the extra weight, might wanna go full hudro steering to make it more streetable. what does the multifuel weigh ? Id bet it is over 1500.

    Why not detroit 50 series in deuce?

    with the stock axle ratio, an overdrive automatic like an md3060, you could cruise that motor at 2100, save fuel , and have plenty of torque. the motors are on e-gay for 2-3k. the shortness of the motor makes a overdrive allison or a good 10-13 speed tranny a great possibility, these bigger...

    Why not detroit 50 series in deuce?

    wouldnt this be the best engine for a swap? being its only a 4 cylinder, its plenty short, available in alot of inner city buses, and rated at 250-320hp, it would be a prime candidate for a swap, more room left for a overdrive auto trans also.....anyone else pondering this idea ? by the way...

    4l80E conversion controller questions

    My local trans guy said he wouldn't do a full manual 4l80 . He said without computer it wont last, the said to get a controller. He mentioned that adding a vaccum modulator to control line pressure was inadequate, and trans life will suffer. He says a controller is needed and well worth the expense.
