Is this an HOA development? Here in the People's Republic of Massachusetts you cannot have a vechicle out in the open without being registered and insured. If it is in a garage or car port they can't say anything. The concept has some merit as nobody wants a junkyard nextdoor to their...

Thanks but I'd have a hard time justifying that cost. Could you just post the address where the truck is parked? LOL

Please tell us where you got that fine cover. Mark

Use longer bolts and jam nut them. Or even more military get some proper bolts and safety wire them. No way to loosen then. Mark

$1000 to $1500 in good shape and acceptable tires. These things come in at 2500lbs plus and this setup is a lot to haul around with a pickup. The air over hydraulics brake system is obviously big issue if you don't have air. A mint M101A3 with cover can fetch over 4k. Just a lot less potential...

Any pics? Hard to invasion. Mark

What's to worry about?

That could have gotten ugly real fast. Thanks for the tip and now I will take a look at mine. Mark

No it is not.

That doesn't sound like a sheep response.

Yes, the government. They are here to help right? They can be trusted right? According to dementia Joe everything is going great.

Yes, Please vote in the midterms Please

The word is leverage. The more outboard the center of gravity also moves outboard. Lots of load on these heavy tires. Not saying you will have problems at all but it will increase the loads on the hub. For a one inch more pos offset with these heavy ass wheels I could see a 15-20% increase...

Well the way I do it is. Left hand grabbing the wheel well right hand grabbing to recess with my first finger grabbing below the corner top edge and "push" over to the other wheel up at about 45 degrees. Lot easier to push and lift rather than just lift. Mark

Do people have trouble lifting the stock setup? Maybe it's just me but I have no issues lifting the hood and letting it down. I like the idea of the gas shocks and like the installs. Just how are most lifting the hood? Where are you and where are your hands. Mark

If the windings saw anything above 450F say goodbye to the insulating coating on the magnet wire. With trying to braze the casing I'm sure the temp was high. It happens. Mark

Yes correct. I would find another Alt and move on. Aluminum brazing requires the base metal to be heated to 1000F and lets not forget the melting point for Aluminum is around 1200F so very little room. They do have Aluminum brazing rods that have a lower base metal temp somewhere around 750F as...

In a jam I've "modified " security screws using a whizzer or a Dremel with a cutoff wheel and just cut in a slot for use with a flat screw driver. Mark

Very nice looking 710K. I'm very familiar with the 712M. Great trucks. Good luck and keep us posted on the progress. Mark Bow is my buddies Pinz and my M101A2
