The inner and outer bearings/races are the same. However - some folks believe in keeping bearing/race pairs together wherever they go. Matt

Exactly, ken... thanks for helping me breathe a sigh of relief. I was worried that a turbo acquisition was needed in the near future. Now I know better! Matt

AHA!!! Thanks ken!! M35A2 - I am getting my truck warmed up so that I don't freeze my ass off on the way to work. Plus, I don't really want to worry about being gentle on a cold engine. I would rather let it warm up and drive the hell out of it. Matt

I am surprised Kenny didn't find that mistake!!! :-) He's losing his edge! Matt

Yes on truck. A GMC 2.5 ton truck with single rear wheels, but ran the 11.00x20 tires to handle the load - also had a different cago box that was narrower (88" wide - same width as the running boards on the stock truck) and had wheel wells to allow the wheels to have more travel offroad...

right you are... edited

Adamlee- My set of 11 m135 wheels cost me 400, but i also got the truck. doghead- M135 wheels can't be run as duals - the tires will touch before the rims do. Loose deuce- M211 and m35 wheels are the exact same, with 10.5 inches of offset. M135 and M34 wheels are the exact same, which is what...

To be truthful, my warm ups in the dead of winter usually last closer to 30-40 minutes. I have the radiator cover that I use in the winter, but even with the vent all the way closed, it still takes a while to warm it up. Perhaps "slobber" isn't a good word. I know most diesels are externally...

Where does the oil come from, though? Past the piston rings? Or past the seals in the turbo? Bjorn - when you're running the knuckleboom for long periods, how much does that load the engine? I imagine you don't have the problem because 1. You're above the 800-1000 rpm idle zone 2. you're not...

So, in the PS magazine section, there is an issue about "why do the multi's smoke and spit oil out the exhaust?" and the answer came back to, "too much idling or low speed operations." A TB is mentioned, (which I can't find - TB 750-981-2), and the solution is to get the truck up to highway...

I concur with Kenny - the nut is lost it's ability to hold on. As for your mysterious appearing/disappearing parking brake yesterday, might be that one of the threads caught the arm the right way, and caused enough friction to act like that locking nut. Either way, my same problem was resolved...

Got it! I should clarify my 2" statement. I was talking about the implied extra load on the bearings if only the outer duals were used. I meant that M135 wheels are only 2" dfferent in RELATIVE POSITION TO THE BEARINGS/RACES. If you mounted some M135 wheels concave side facing outboard, as if...

WT brings up a good point about bearing wear. But I wonder: Does the two inch offset difference between running 1. outers only on stock hubs to 2. M135 wheels on flipped hubs make that big a difference? Do M135 wheels hurt your bearings, too? Matt

wallew- I am overdue one (1) boat already. She let me buy the M35A2 AND the parts M135. Not to mention, she has done as much work as I have tearing that M135 apart. So, I owe her the boat she wants. (Any girl who you have to fight over who gets to impact wrench is worth keeping happy) Matt

Thanks for the translation, Kenny!! 100% correct! Houdel - take a look: http://www.defenselink.mil/militarypay/pay/bp/paytables/Jan2006_Basic_Pay.html And to set the record straight, there is no 200? anything approved by my house's financial committee (Ms. FSBruva). Matt

I hear the 2007 Cadillacs are pretty quiet inside, and they even come with radios nowadays... Matt

I was being sarcastic.... yet another question answered with the search function, which apparently only you, me and Mangus know about... Matt

There is only one rim that is a street legal, DOT approved beadlock, and it's a 15" rim for a jeep. The company that makes them swears they're working on bigger street legal rims, and it's always "next spring." http://www.high-impact.net/wheels/dot_approved_beadlocks.htm And Recovery4x4... was...

Well, you could leave one as a gasser, as you mentioned it had a neat sound. The other would be the multi, and Soldier B could help you on recovery missions!!! Matt

Off road (and snow) performance is vastly superior with singles, as the rears do not have to break a new track. The military knows this, and now almost all tacticals have singles. However, duals are preferred on the highway because of the four "spare" tires already on the ground in the back. A...
