Half the “fifth wheel” travel trailers or over 10,000 lbs. how many three axle motorhomes or there on California hiways right now? A California “dmv hand book” is not the vehicle code. not saying it’s false, but just sounds a little fishy?

We have had ours for about 8 years. It real nice to have twelve foot two by fours loaded in the back or two pallets of floor tile. We have been to haspin towing our hmvee on the trailer, been to Arizona. We put the front freewheeling hubs on. for speed we put the “53 tires on. Much safer than...

Yea, not as tough as use to be. slid the bed back mounted at hand pump crane between the bed and cab. With the tire inside the crane footprint. with the “53 tires there about 390lbs each,

Sorry off the grid for a while, no I just asked a truck junkyard to find one about this leanth and this diameter and spline.

Just did a “tas 65 steering box” search, lots turned up. Very common. from $175 to $1400

Sorry, can’t remember. Just used a cat bolt on pump.( piggybacks the air compressor) borgstroms? For steering u joints etc. reservoir from Amazon. And had two hoses fabbed up.

We have 53” and had to get a new pitman arm out of a truck junkyard to make it work.

they DEFINITELY won’t fit

come on, if I see one more bi turbo V12 merc put in a hmmve I’m gonna puke. would someone just once try to think outside the box?

Sealer, stupid spell check!!!

If your “o rings” look good just use some seale. Only had to change 1 ”o ring”, a friend did not line it up on his assembly and would not hold air after an hour.

Yep, fuel

And maybe one or more of the rear axles are moving around which is affecting your steering? And swapped in dextron 3 in our trans about 4 years ago, much better now.

Looked today and got some measurements, from the steering box,have a 6” steering “arm” connecting to the shaft of the box, leading down to a steering arm connecting to the steering “axle knuckle” with a center to center of 9”. the 2 to third axle wheel base is 60”. The springs are three leaves...

Sorry not exactly a tech savvy guy. Will also measure the Pittman arm and to be honest I thick we did some calculations and by dumb luck it came out right on figuring the Pittman arm ratio.
