    Simp's M920 build thread

    Haven't done much in the past few months but I took the time to get it somewhat together and leveled off sitting the same at the engine bay at the connection point and at the rear. Close enough. There is a 6ft of frame overlap. Basically the full length of the inner frame of the 920 is inside...

    Operation " I need to leave crap alone " is underway. There is a high demand for M916/920 rear axles obviously. So I sold the ones from my 920. Have a few RBUs laying around. Going to mate the RBU to the back of the 920. Mk17 RBU is around 16ft long front to rear without the crane section...

    About as fast as she will run at 90k at high altitude without getting too hot. She can reach 82 though. Running around 74 normally at 2100rpms near sea level.

    Like when you have a blow out on a 1600. Just break the wheel down and leave that giant alligator for the overpaid lazy DOT guy to pickup.

    Yeah I didn't make a mess really. But you always keep a shovel handy in case you need to cover something up. Why I keep a big excavator handy for those uninvited guest. You know those "good boys that never hurt anyone and were turning their life around to be a good father to their 8 kids" guest

    Cause they think that Ford is behind it. The Ford plant will not benefit that town. Thr town only has 4 businesses so there is no money. They won't let the store that blew up rebuild and it was 90% of their tax revenue. Oh well. My property is 2mi from mason but in a different county.

    Well after 7500mi in the past 16 days. The oil cooler decided it wanted to start seeping oil into the coolant after just sitting idling for a little bit in Commifornia. Oil pressure was normal. Suspect it was just a bad cooler O ring but the cooler housing is around 140lbs. If I am in there...

    Just a note that you can move a standard height 40ft container behind a 916/920 but not a High Cube. 9ft 6 high cube. Plus 65in from ground to the bottom of the high cube at the kingpin. Total of 179in. Standard container would be a shy under 14'

    New Sumitomo steer tires. 445 65 22.5s ST520s. Was wanting some continental HCS's but supply is low so I settled for these for now. Only reason to settle for them was the price. They were $626ea shipped in. And that included the $42 FET. I figured it was the best price since they are normally...
