Here is the before and the after. Drives really nice. Improved ride quality and just a little more ground speed at any given rpm. Wheels, tires, painting, o-rings, valve stems, travel time, motels and gasoline spent to round all this up: about $4,000.00!!! The new look of the M818: PRICELESS!!!

Sweet! Are you going to put a bed on this truck, or use it as a tractor?

No plans for a bed since this truck will see tractor duty. Check this thread to see it in action.
My 5 Ton continues to earn its keep!!
We use it for off road hauls. I am working on 24 to 12volt conversion for the trailer wire circuits so on road movement with civilian trailers will be possible.
