    Snow Chains for 395's

    I think I've seen a picture on here with chains on 1 rear axle. Rear rear I believe with another set on the front axle. They may have been 14.5s, not 100% sure.

    100k lbs gvw M818

    When the plate is behind the pivot point of the axles, it turns it into a fulcrum. Just getting the weight in front of that point should make a pretty significate differance on the front axle.

    Alternate Use of the Multi-Fuel Engine????

    I've always wondered how well they would do in a bulldozer. Id suspect they are overpowered for some smaller dozers, but I'm thinking of like a d6-ish sized dozer it would fit good.
