Treed, I was just looking for it under your threads. I actually kinda like the length. Now that’s a full length m923 bed?

I guess I should have clarified a little bit. I want a real bobbed 5 ton, however my time constraints may not allow that, so I was wondering what a factory length 925 with a rear axle removed looked. I kind of like them with the deuce bed, but I want to retain the drop sides. I want to see if...

So I searched through 370 threads and several hundred pages to no avail. After having my bobbed deuce and my m1078 I want a bobbed 5 ton. The closest thing I have seen to what I’m looking at is a 5 ton with m35 bed. But I’m thinking about a 5 ton with factory bed and chassis length. Has anybody...

From spout spring va to new Brighton pa 15066

Bob it and don’t look back.

Then why reply? I mean honestly? This isn’t an opinion thread, I’m like looking for real world results.

I guess the point blank answer is, it can do whatever it wants in 6x6 but I don’t want a 6x6 truck? I want a 4x4, 5 ton. I don’t need, nor desire 3 axles? A 5 ton with rated tires and springs will do just fine. If I needed a tandem this would be an m931a2 dump thread not and m931a2 bobber...

Maybe it’s just me, but over the years I have had way more luck with all wheel drive dumps then 2wd. This isn’t an end all be all for off road use, or something I think can magically not get stuck. It is simply a better alternative then a factory dump to lessen the headache I get when I have to...

Several reasons actually. Scratch the bobed 5 ton itch, and dump in one swipe, a tandem is overkill for the bed size. The truck will mostly be used to move horse **** to the landscape place that takes it, and stone here and there from my local supply yard to my house 500 feet down the road...

From what looking I have done I’m looking at a 9 or 10 foot bed with 3-4 foot sides. That’s what seems to be on most 5 tons. I don’t really like adding springs either but I’m almost positive they could add a new top thicker leaf. I need to stop and see what my options are but the guy wants the...

Now first let me State I have searched. And I’m not finding exactly what I’m searching for. I know there are a few options out there, mrap, and 5 Ton fronts, full air. When I bobbed my deuce there was a plethora of after market parts out there, saddles, perches, blocks, hangers, etc. with the...

I thought about a lift block, but with as much weight as I have put in this truck, the 105 springs are not ideal. I found a company out west who will make me a set of custom springs at any rating I desire for about 600 for the pair. I just need to get around to measuring for them. That and...

Thanks, right now m105 springs.

My heap, working on the rear squat here when I decide I want to drop the coin on custom springs. http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii73/inline6359/99CDF4C1-BC16-447E-8ECC-201CC4DB594B_1.jpg Edit: apparently Photobucket changed how you insert photos?
