Wooden chock blocks go in the basket for winching purposes is when they are used It's for a blackout light but hardly any got them

It's in that thread I linked. It gives the wire #s and where they go.

Honesty sucks. They are a nightmare to work on. Anything on the motor requires pulling the cab or the fenders at the very least. No transmission access. 3 air dryers which is a massively stupid idea as you can only access 1. Dual air compressors and dual steering units off the back of the...

And this is what you will be looking at.

Not having a bad day. That was yesterday dealing with Bret's crap in the humid muggy heat in grass as tall as me. There is a reason they put lifting eyee on top of the cab. It's about a 90min job but it's designed to come off for that design flaw of access to the engine.

I guess some folks just buy stuff cause they are too dumb to do their homework before hand. We see that alot here with titling issues mostly. You know why you don't see em cause it's a bad idea. There arent any sitting on state forestry lots for a reason. There is a reason all m916a3s that...

Its standard truck stuff

In my opinion you shouldn't be operating a HET then. They are mechanically quite pieces of crap which you will find out soon enough. Something with more reliability with ease of parts acquisition is a much better choice.

5th wheel is around 900lbs. Ramps are light like manageable by hand. @country may be interested in the winches and plate.

In the 3500 4000lb range

A trailer is such an option. The rear steer of the HETs makes it pretty maneuver. Even carrying a pintle trailer with extra water is better than what you have. I had zero problems getting around on western Montana roads with old 5tons and trailers for years. Just knock down a few trees if...

Because you have generally have no clue what you are talking about in things you type here about a HET. So I'll use the ignore feature.

I've got about 8 pairs of winches I've had for sale for 3yrs. You should point me in the direction of these people who want them? They don't. They are just too much winch really. Especially with the 1inch cable. It's always people who don't have them to sell that want to tell others what...

You would just use a frame level connector hose on scene and the truck and trailer tank would share their capacity so only one pump is needed. They would use a gas powered pump on the trailer anyway. Most do.

You would benefit from the truck more as a tender/tractor. Mount you a 2500gal tank on it between the cab and the 3rd axle. Then mount you a 5th wheel in the middle of axle 3/4 to pull the 5000 or 7500gal HEIL tanker.

I would sell the payout winch seperate. Yes it's a 3000lb hydraulic winch. It's pretty handy. But they do bring big money. Winches you may put 6k on the whole platform with both winches etc. And take the first 5.

The hydraulic pump is right below the hydraulic tank and the access grate in the floor of the platform..it's about 34inches long and has 3 inlets and 3 outlets. It weighs around 170lbs. 2 bolts on the front and one bolt at the rear.
