A lot of our HMMWVS and MRAPs have infrared driver's viewing equipment installed now, which is a screen inside meant to be used in lieu of actually looking out the windshield with night vision. I've actually seen some of these systems posted for sale in various Facebook groups recently for quite...

I'm not around, but my price has always been $ 75 per hub, plus whatever parts and grease, brake cleaner, etc. at no markup. That's for rears. Front hub/ knuckles are $125 each labor. So basically $ 250 for the front end and $300 for the whole rear, labor only. Parts will probably come in around...

You should have everything you need there except for maybe a few extra packard connectors to make a clean install.

Yes. Sounds like the relay valving is sticking, or the air piston itself is. Get it to stick, then open your service gladhand valve and see if they release immediately. If so, probably the relay valve. If not, open the emergency air gladhand valve and see if they release.

Big Mike has those u- bolts in stock. Or he did, anyway..

$5k is on the high end of the price range for a truck with no winch. At that price you can usually find one that runs and has brakes.

Yes you're right. I forgot about that. I don't see that being necessary for OP's intended application though. I have seen more than a couple deuces with bent rear spring packs, but only one with a frame bent from overload.

Can't believe you called my carefully selected plate stacks " janky" 🤣🤣

If anything, just add a few more leaves to the spring pack. That's basically all they did on the tankers and M108 wreckers.

Anything with an SAE3 bellhousing will bolt up, but finding another suitable standard transmission with a higher ratio final drive that will actually fit in the truck is the hard part.

Good work so far! Wen Cummins?

Your lift pump is not providing enough fuel volume. Engine is consuming more fuel than the pump can provide.

Look at M105, M1061A1, and M750 trailers. They have a small master cylinder with an air pot for each axle, which is similarly sized and braked to an M35 axle. Use an M939 treadle valve and a standard off the shelf relay valve. Run one master/ brake pot on each axle and you have properly sized...

It probably has a bushing adapter pressed into the crank. While I'm not 100% positive, I don't think they would've had a separate crank for 5 ton and 2.5 ton applications. Bushing/ bearing adapters in crankshafts are very common.

Mounted securely between the power steering pump and vacuum brake booster.

If you decide to use a 12 valve 6BT Cummins you'll not be disappointed. It is a bit of work and investment to get it all sorted, but well worth the effort.

You should have plenty of room for two alternators on the passenger side if you don't plan to run an air conditioning compressor ever.

Rusty, I had considered a 205 for mine but was concerned it may not hold up in a truck as heavy as mine. It certainly would improve ground clearance a lot.

Try to find the S297 air compressor and associated power steering pump like I have.
