    FMTV High Speed Gears

    I got mine from Bryce. He delivered them in Colorado and installed them for a very reasonable price. He is coming back here in a couple of weeks as he has Detroit-style lockers and will install those as well. 772828 6829 Bryce Wasielak or Facebook.

    Yup, Bryce is awesome. A rolling rock gathers no moss. This guy drives more in one week than I do all year. And he knows his stuff.

    Noisy axles at LMTV

    After switching to the high speed gears, I tried to re-fill the planetary gears. It worked on 5 out of 6 hubs and on the last one (its always the last one #$%^&), the hex just stripped. Looks like I am going to have to drill it out. So in preparation, I went to the local truck supply...

    Thank you for the excellent suggestion. If it works and fits, I will post the CAD file for all to use for free. That way, anyone can get one built locally.

    newbie question, FMTV wheel bolt pattern

    No worries, I don't know the correct terms, either. Short version: Front and rear are the same I believe. Middle is very different as it transfers power through the third member to the rear axle. front and back gears are around 300 - 350 lbs. middle gear is around 450 lbs. I believe that...
