    5 ton Bogies under a deuce

    Wow, I cannot believe this old thread resurfaced, The suspension is not what would increase the GVW of the deuce it would be the rating of the axles. So a deuce with 5 ton suspension is still a deuce. After posting this I successfully did this mod. I added 3/8" plate to the deuce axle where...

    M62 question

    if you have ever done an engine swap than you have answered your own question, they are very heavy, you are not going to do it with and ordinary cherry picker. Make friends with a crane owner.

    Overkill Customs M920 Build

    Well I got the dump bed and tailgate put together and unbolted the cab cover from the bed, this is going to be a pretty easy swap over, I took a load of scrap to the recyclers today and 920 empty tips in at 30,268 lbs With the dump bed on there I am sure it will end up in the 31k range. Not...

    transmission swap

    I agree completely, get an eaton fuller 9 or 10 speed and enjoy, you will like it much better than the 5 speed.

    454 will replace multi fuel in m35a2?

    good luck on the disc conversion for anything bolt on, if you have any fab skills you can make one on your own for $750 an axle, I also know a guy in your area who does that stuff and may be able to help you out.

    M920 Differential Gears

    none that I am aware of. First gear is not as deep so you will not be able to creep around like we currently can as much. od is the same, standard 9 or 10 speed.

    M 123's going to the scrap yard

    yep, that is what I thought which is why I was able to make the deal just to clean out the trucks of lightweight stuff that would not amount to much at the crusher but like I said, he had $$ in his eyes while I was there.

    Overkill Customs M920 Build

    he gave me his address, I am hoping that my gps finds him, if not I will give you a call. Thanks. One other thing, we were thinking of hosting a pnw mini rally over here, ranchhand has 20 acres and I have half a cow to eat this year, any interest from the west side to join us? I think we may end...

    Overkill Customs M920 Build

    Yes I did, and yes I am, I am going to bring the dodge this go around, spent enough time in the 920 yesterday to tie me over for a while, I am going to swing by and pick one up from him after picking up my tires. Thanks again, that was a great referral!

    M 123's going to the scrap yard

    Yeah its not the first time for me either, I made sure this time I was diligent in having an agreement before the trip and that still did not stick. I did get enough to make it worth the trip but had I know it was going to be a fight I would have just stayed home. I got three tops and 5 window...

    Overkill Customs M920 Build

    well I got the dump bed home, I am going to have to rethink the hydraulic circuit I have and I will try to reuse most of the parts that came with the assembly like the valve etc. I think it would be easier to tie it into the knuckleboom circuit than trying to use a hydraulic motor to power the...

    M 123's going to the scrap yard

    don't get me wrong, I am not whining I just do not like when someone mess's with my time and especially my money. They knew they had me by the nuts driving the 920 all the way out there but it wasn't until I was loading tools back up leaving with nothing that the negotiation began.
