    M998 2 man troop carrier without the top weighs #5,960 lbs & Springs

    Any idea if the 1038 has a heavier spring rate on the front for the winch? I honestly wouldn't mind the front to sit an 1" higher or so on my truck.

    Sorry brain fart. 1986 and newer.

    GA Registration cost

    I can't speak for all of them, but a simple bill of sale has worked for me in my small town. They've required a T-22B form as well with a LEO to run a VIN check on it. But there's no inspections that I'm aware of.

    GA Registration cost

    You'll have no problem registering it in GA without a title. Only 1986 and newer require a title in GA. As for the tag, are you planning on towing a trailer with it? If so, what weight? Here's the fee schedule...

    Green dots indicating a thread subscription

    I've been opening things back up after some major changes that have been made. The subscribe to threads was an option, which calls to the database. So while I was trying to sort through some of these issues I stripped things down to as little as possible. That's back now. I'm also going to...

    Very low front differential oil level: hoping for the best, preparing for the worst

    It's hard/impossible to be 100%, but being a 92, I'd bet it's 2.56. I *think* it was around 94 or so when they started going to the 2.73's. I was worried about the ratio as well when I swapped the front diff. I'd like to keep my 2.56 gears and add a 4L80e or 700R4 one day to mine. Then add...

    Very low front differential oil level: hoping for the best, preparing for the worst

    I unfortunately ran a front (and rear) diff without fluid for over a thousand miles. It locked up on me after some metal got in the R&P. The rear looked fine though. If it were me, I'd run the front for a few hundred miles and drop the fluid again, checking for metal. Then judge accordingly...

    M998 6.2 litre smells bad

    Diesel engines are a lean burn engine by nature. Additional fueling (enriching) functions to increase RPM. There's no carburetor or butterfly valve on a diesel engine to vary RPM. That said, unburnt diesel fuel coming out the exhaust of a diesel is more typically caused by timing issues...

    M998 6.2 litre smells bad

    Sounds like a normal 6.2 to me. We are talking about a 40 year old diesel design. And the fact that it's a IDI system.

    Is a Deuce "Whistler" Turbo on 6.2 worth considering?

    You planning on going into combat soon? :whistle:

    Email issues

    I believe it's resolved now. Sorry about that folks. The server took the notion on it's own to move to ipv6 for mail when we're still a ipv4.

    Email issues

    And just FYI, I'm still getting push notices via tapatalk. (I'm a gmail user)

    Email issues

    Working through an email issue right now. Seems that at least gmail and comcast users aren't getting their emails. (This is due to some PTR records needing ipv6 updates) I'm working with the hosting company to get this resolved.

    M998 6.2, 6.5 or 6.5 Turbo Advice wanted

    Yup, and that's due to the intake bolt angle. I've been gathering parts, but I plan on using a 6.5 turbo from a civy truck on my 6.2. I'm going to use the stock HMMWV passenger manifold to create a log manifold with a turbo flange. Then put the turbo in that pocket that's open on the front...
