    RhinoTAC fully armored 5 ton Prototype

    Any idea where their components like their ISO beds and other parts went? Recovry4x4's other photos show they had quite a few trucks they were going to convert before the contract flopped, I wonder where they went.

    m915a1 jake brake quit working

    Check the switch on the foot pedal for the Jake. That was the culprit for erratic operation on ours. Sometimes the Jakes would only kick in after standing on the pedal for a few seconds, sometimes they wouldn't work at all. New switch solved it.

    M915 series, pictures of your toys

    Nice truck, is that an A2? What is the top speed you are able to achieve? I have heard they are not able to keep pace with an M915 w/ the 16 speed Cat.

    M931 tractor with 1600r20?

    Are you going to be towing anything with your tractor? The standard 1400s on M931A1/A2s already raise the 5th wheel height up quite high, 1600s are even worse.

    M915 series, pictures of your toys
