I like the look of the H1 beadlock wheels and the spacers. Cuts down on the visible length of Dana 60 'snout' sticking out.

You got lucky that gravy still had lubricity to it and didn't end up like this:

The Big Block and Allison combo is a pretty decent set up. Also, the chances are really pretty good that the Big Block will have an air compressor on it already. And...seeing how you need to get a new radiator anyway, now would be a good time to upgrade power plants. You still *may* be...

After you find it...you'll need a barge with lifting derrick or large crane. Expect it to get heavier as soon as it breaks the surface of the water. There have been people using large heavy duty bags full of diesel fuel to float things. Of course that's been about 10 years, I think, since I...

"Hey you stupid scab, it's a DEUCE, NOT A FIVE TON!!!" :mrgreen:

Virtually a straight shot east on I-80 the haul would be maybe 3,000 lbs of snowblower parts. A near complete unit and then other loose parts. Please PM me if you may be able to help or know someone heading east with room. THANKS!!!!!!!

I hear those tires will fit on A3 wheels too. :mrgreen: AH, hahahahahahahahahah, ha, haaa!

See the cable end in the center of the pic? I have it hooded into a D-ring in pintle hook to keep it from swinging around. That is one of Esmet's Electroline forged units. I bought it in natural finish and hit it with some black spray paint. These units ARE the ones you want. This one is on...

I ratchet strapped an extension ladder to mine so I could climb up higher to trim a tree...does that count? :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I've gotten two for 1/2" cable on the deuce and one for the 5/8" cable for the 20,000lb Garwoods on the 5 ton front winches. They are EXACTLY the part you are looking for.

PM me for an Esmet Electroline distributor. I have purchased three now. I'm not posting this info in public because it is a family member but he's a rep for Esmet. Also, this was discussed a couple months ago.

For future reference if you can push the axles back into position, you can cut the rubber down a little on the part that remained on the truck, put the rod end back over it and ratchet strap it on and limp home.

My apologies...no pic today. Hopefully I'll get to farm tomorrow. My stops were yellow zinc coated factory units and the level wind had never, EVER been used. Still had perfect paint on all rollers and bridge roller. The stops on mine were shorter that what it sounds like you guys are...

Neat article! Shame they don't show any pics of the engine with all it's speed goodies. I've been to 'The Salt' a couple of times and land speed raced 1,000cc motorcycle there. The Salt is cool, Wendover is an interesting little town! Met John Lingenfelter out there and the next day got to...

DON'T DO IT BJORN!!! !!! !!! MKCOEN, like everything it can vary a lot. These, because of their sort of different application can go for a *little* less, but expect to see them $2,000 to $4,000 and change. Anything under $2,000 and you're doing well. Just be careful of what you're...

I sorta doubt it. Maybe for short distance, but you're asking a lot...great deal of different forces going to be acting on it unless it has the legs that attach to it for support, I think you're out of luck.

They are NOT, repeat NOT...LONG ENOUGH. Trust me, I use my winches...if you want the level wind to work perfectly, don't assume the short factory stop is correct. I'm going up to the farm tonight and will get the picture of my longer stops. I also made them out of 1" aluminum round stock with a...

Nice! There doesn't seem to be much market for the roller chassis on those though. I think it's pretty neat how they could scoot themselves front to rear on a flatbed trailer hauling block. 23' will be fine on a deuce...you WILL always want more at times, but they're very handy. I'm probably...

I'll try to get a picture of the extended stops I made up for my level wind set up tonight. I actually have my stops set so that the trolly stops about 3/4" (iirc) from where the cable would be winding up against the side of the spool. So the cable drives the cable over to the spool that last...

So trying to move a stuck 55,000lb machine with cable rated for a little over 40,000lbs with a 20,000lb winch? <--the snapped cable and driveshaft aren't Murphy's Law in affect this time. PEOPLE- I know I'll get some flak about this but the factory level wind set up for the 20,000lb Garwoods...
