Guess were at the opposite ends of the spectrum huh. Lol

My 5 ton is a m52a2, but it has a title so I'm sticking to it. The point of this thread was that I was deciding which would be better for my build and figured someone else may have similar conflictions so I simply stated what I discovered. Idk how a m939 series would be easier to work on than a...

Well here I am years later still plugging away at this build. I should have done 2.5 ton bc the truck I bought needs everything a m35 would've needed. Updated braking system, steering system, electrical, air, EVERYTHING is being updated. Im 12 valve swapping it and finding the proper clutch and...

So I found out that I have a 6352 trans, probly gotta rebuild it bc it has oil/grease all over the pilot shaft. Dont know where I'm gonna get everything to do it though. Anyone know why that might be? Thanks fellas.

I finally got the lds pulled, everything was rusted to bits. Scrapped the doors, spare tire rack, winshield, I took off both fenders, steps, fuel tanks, and mudflaps. I have fitment issues with my flywheel housing and flywheel on my 5.9 12 valve. I bought a chevy 2500 hydroboost brake...

So i have come to the decision to completely scrap my body components. The previous owner took it through a pond and left it there. There is mud and rust in places there shouldnt be. I think it was on fire once? Idk, so the new plan is a drop top, APC look with bullet proof glass. Im going to...

Ill be sure to get some pics of the cool stuff i plan on doing. It may help future SS members with their builds.

Actually there was mention of a trailer, advice to haul it on a flatbed trailer.

I was talking to a bunch a people on a bunch of forums. It may not have been one of the steel soldiers guys. Either way there were a bunch of nay sayers. I thank the communities for all the input, it got here safely and nobody got hurt/tickets. I'll be happy to post pics of it when im done...

Flat towing, trailer towing, the guys on here were all but certain a regular truck couldn't do it. Honestly i was worried about the dude coming down the mountain with it. Either way, you guys probly saved my ass in more ways than one.

I was worried the guy would have trouble in the mountains but it got here in one piece. I so glad too.

You asked for pictures well their too big. Heres a video link though.

Hi fellas, I'm engine swapping from an lds 465 to possibly a 5.9 12 valve with p pump. What other engines would be a good choice? The 5.9 is fully mechanical no electronics, lets keep it that way.
