    Planning 1200 Mile Recovery MN to NC

    Turn her south and drive. Anything that happens can be bought on the way. I've driven 12 from WI to Devon, AB. Worst thing that happened is an air drier froze in Feb. Never trust the fuel gauge and drive by mileage, I fill every 350 mi. It's a nice drive going slow and checking out the...

    soft straight line camo

    I thought so too. But that's the nato pattern. Next time I would switch the brown and black. You don't notice the black as much when the base is green.

    Dually centers on HEMTT rims

    No the pipe is welded on the outer wheel with the center moved out. Like making a dually wheel out of a fmtv or combat wheel. Still two centers bolted to the hub.

    Dually centers on HEMTT rims

    got them to work. Overall width of the truck is not that wide as compared to the tank. Didn't have a tape measure but no where near as wide as a 812/945. I would hazard a guess at 9'. There was about 2" each side sticking out past wheel fenders on the rear. Large wheel gap which could...

    Dually centers on HEMTT rims

    The picture of the dual gap wouldn't upload. The inside rears are the same as the front, and the outer is re-centered with a piece of pipe. You might get away with a FMTV wheel inboard and a bridge truck wheel outboard.

    M936a2 towing a M931a2

    I've flat towed lots over 1500 mi long trips. Transfer case in neutral, hook gland hands up to air rear truck, disconnect Canon plug at signal switch and run a cable from the trailer plug of the front truck to the trailer plug on the rear truck. Before I Had mv plug ends I just used some 4 pin...
