    Yea I put the 1600's on mine to with ground down front drum. Then I got the MK rims and tires after I had a wheel bearing went bad on one side. I don't want to carrie a different rim and tire just for the front. I think my 920 with Deuce bed will be used for draging around my 6 ton military...

    Yep I was wrong. There is no excuse for not reading the TM. I have had the 920 for years and never had it up to 2000rpm in 16th.

    I just picked up my MK16 self loading trailer and the rims fit correct. If anyone cares the rims and tires off the MK16 and MK17 fit the bigger drums on the 920 without cutting the drum.

    Soni think its great that you would like to share. In your new thread of tec tips I would like to add something for faster warm up on the Cat trans. When air pressure is up and trans is in netrual push in the shifter lock out button and this will help limber oil and raise oil 100* in ten min.
