Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I am trying to enjoy it for now. I have some wondering problems and I am going to adjust front end toe to get it going. The next thing will be a air seat. Im not as small as the seat was designed for and bounces around a bit.vtach said:That is one of the best rigs that I have seen, great job! Is it for sale?![]()

I got to take pictures the springs are from the front of 5 ton and bolted to rear. I just to get a minute to send along pictures.jeli said:Nice job! I'd like info too on how you fabbed the rear end in.
55Cameo said:sidewinder, please let me know what you do to correct the wandering problem. I have the same tires and the same problem with my bobbed m35a2. I have added about 3 degrees of +caster and have the toe in 1/4 in. and it still wanders somewhat.
Ive been checking things reading manuals and will do some front end tightening , knuckles, rods and Toe in 1/4"then try it out before I take plate off axle housing and machine the spring mounting plate into a wedge, which on a 5 ton is a plate not a wedge.55Cameo said:I have a digital level that I used to check the caster before and after milling the wedge blocks. I took off some material from the wedges instead of flipping them. Thinking that 7 or 8 degrees would be too much. I think that I am going to try flipping them now which should give me about 6 degrees or so and see how that does. With the hydraulic steering I don't have to worry about the steering wheel taking body parts off on return to center like some do with manual steering if there is too much caster.
Have you tried more toe-in yet?
Wandering did lessen when I put more caster into it, so maybe it will help again.
