Swamp Donkey here is the write up on the build http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?163550-Heater-blower-motor-Mod-with-MRAP-blower&p=1963919#post1963919

you are correct on 28 amps, the heater CB is 30 amps, so just squeaked under. I only run mine on low, high speed sounds like its going to eat through the fire wall, but this is also the first run, so there will be upgrades.

Got tired of changing heater blower motors, this is the 4th ruined motor between 2 trucks. Used a mrap vent fan, will do a write up when I get to building the 2nd motor. 2nd photo is a comparison between old and new motor sizes How to do this is written up here...

Got the retrofit done today, had overcast weather until the last 2 tires. Only lost 4 mph going from 14.00/20's to 11R24.5's. The truck has a new name now though, Rock Chucker. If you wish to delete the wheel end CTIS items, either permanent or temporary, the plug that I used is Gates...

from page 56 Sorry for taking a year to reply, yes I am doing the rears, a year later. Thats one nice thing about it being a toy, it doesnt matter if it gets done or not. Caps with no casings cost me about $250, cheapest virgin tires i could find with big lugs was about $100 more. If you are...

I have always liked having the spare tire already mounted next to the one that blows out. The other 8.... 9 incuding the spare should be here maybe next week after they come back from getting caps.

Availability of tires. I can go to any tire shop/truck stop and get a 11r24, if you blow a 14.00/20 you are at the mercy of SS or an excellent luck of the draw of the tire shop having a road grader tire. Ask 98G, he knows all about blowing 14.00s and trying to find them on the road.

Pulled the 14.00/20's off the front, dropped some 11R24.5's in their place.
