    MRAP 395/85/R20 on HEMMT wheels

    You may be right. Be the first. ;-) Anyway, I know people have adapted a HEMMT wheel for deuce purposes and I believe that has the same issue as MRAP to 5 ton. By the way, this pic was posted by gringeltaube in another thread earlier today. I wish I had all the tools you listed. I have a...

    MRAP 395/85/R20 on HEMMT wheels

    Makes sense. I am sure there are plenty of members with bobbed deuces looking to purchase the MRAP wheels too. I got some myself with 14.00-20s that I am currently adapting. Good luck metalman.

    MRAP 395/85/R20 on HEMMT wheels

    I am curious. Why would you choose to replace the MRAP wheel with a HEMMT wheel? Why not just modify the MRAP wheel and use an adapter plate?

    MRAP Wheel Torque Specs

    Ok, it looks like TMs are not available for the Husky. I did, however, find torque specs for the rim nuts stamped right on the wheel. It is 220Nm which is 162 ft lbs. This put a smile on my face because I calculated 160 ft lbs last night when comparing the number of rim nuts on the HEMTT...

    Greetings From Utah

    Thanks for the welcome! erixun: Good idea on the avatar. I may do that in the end. For now, I couldn't pass up using a pic of my little girl the first time she was in the truck. Here are some pics of my boys offroading shortly after we removed the bed.

    Hi guys, I am having trouble locating torque and other specs for wheels I recently purchased from GL. I believe they are from the Husky model MRAP. I was hoping someone here can help. I need to replace the air valve on one of the wheels and I need the following information before I begin...

    Greetings From Utah

    Hi everyone, I thought it was about time to formally introduce myself. I have been a SS member since last July and caught the green disease just a month earlier. I have never been fond of expensive pretty trucks. I like trucks that are tough and have been used tough. I want to offroad and...

    5 Ton CDL Inquiry Fun In Utah

    Hi everyone. I am new here and recently became a fan of military vehicles. I have spent quite some time researching the various vehicles and I must say the 5 tons, in particular the M818s, have my attention. This is a great site and I was not going to post here until I purchased a truck of...
