Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
The truck has the LDS multi fuel engine. He is planning on replacing it with a Mack engine. He has the MACK disease.Ok did I miss something? 73mph with stock tires stock everything except a diff kind of transmission. This truck has a mack engine? does the mack engine run diff trans than my m35a2 multi? I know Putting this trans in my bobbed deuce and getting 73mph can not be this easy. Whats the catch?
On my m818 70 psi up front and 50 psi in the rears she drives and rides the smoothest by far at 70 mph bob tailing, too.Mind you all that this was a test. 2800 is higher than the 2600 limit. Don't anyone think that this is the norm for the LDS with the direct drive. I am doing over 50 at 2600 with mine and I choose not to run it at that speed. I can only imagine the handling of that tractor at that speed. With tire pressure up at 70 and no trailer, The rear end is very jumpy and in the spring, I am always cautious of road conditions.
I don't know for sure Jeff,I know he mentioned 53s in our conversations over the phone,plus some kind of equipment carrier for the rear maybe.Housemover going to work it?? BTW.....................Needs paint.............Wrong colorBut thats just me.
