Hey Leonard, just curious, my new addition (8x8) has the Allison TX-206-6 transmission, is that the one you have too or do you have something more modern?
Working with Leonard was a pleasure, best place in the country to break down when some machining work is required to get back on the road.
Image below shows the hoist in use (one of the few times the HIAB didn't work). aua
Leonard, you should show the troops some of the precision work...
RE: baby HEMTT update
Always good to see progress! I see that the "oil caning" problem of the deck in the foreground is persisting.
How is the steering linkage coming along?
Say hello to Cole.
Thanks again for your time and help! Zero oil leak from the bellhousing vent and the hydraulic line...
RE: more baby HEMTT pics
Jason, I'm running 1600X20s on the baby HEMTT and getting them on a duel rear axle setup would require more than the stock 48" between the two rears. These tires are 53" in diameter so anything closer than say 55" would pretty much assure constant tire to tire contact...
RE: more baby HEMTT pics
Hey Leonard, I'll give you a HIAB demo next week when I roll by your place. Those cranes come in many different sizes and I for one don't know how I'd live w/o one, not to mention the hydraulic outriggers. :-)
Looking forward to checking out your project.
