I had an enjoyable 2 days getting a few M818s home. Yesterday, Bow-man and I convoyed 4 trucks and 2 trailers. Thanks Bow-man! :driver: Today, I was by myself so I made my own convoy with 3 trucks. :cookoo: :grd: Here was the lineup. Day 1, Rig 1: M818, M818, M101A2 Day 1, Rig 2...

Sorry you didn't get it.

RE: Re: RE: MILITARY VEHICLE TIRES WE HOPE TO BE OF ASSISTAN The Michelin XZL 16R20 tires are 22 ply, but better check those Michelin XL 16R20. This link shows them to be be Load Range J (18 ply). http://www.tirecraft.com/commercial/MichXLspecs.htm

Re: RE: MILITARY VEHICLE TIRES WE HOPE TO BE OF ASSISTANCE T Just because you have been selling them that way for a long time, doesn't mean your are right. Sounds like you have been misleading buyers for a long time. Just because it is load range M, doesn't mean it is 28 ply. Load Range J...

RE: MILITARY VEHICLE TIRES WE HOPE TO BE OF ASSISTANCE TO AN Welcome to Steel Soldiers! You should be able to do well selling those 11R20s. Check you ply rating on those 14R20 and 16R20. Should be 18 and 22, respectively.

You will probably want one that has a drop/rise. The tongue height on most military trailers (esp M101 and M105) is much higher than the receiver height on most civilian vehicles. Here is a picture of mine pintle hitch receiver adapter in use with a M105:

:grd: Sweet truck. Did it have the tools and equipment you expected?

Beatiful truck. :driver:

Go for it and buy one. :driver:

RE: Re: RE: Pictures of towbar feet I wish I could have known Sermis was coming this way. He has some things I wanted to buy. :-)

RE: Re: RE: Pictures of towbar feet 2 M35s and 2 M105A2s behind each deuce? Man, I thought I was crazy when it comes to road trains.

Re: RE: Pictures of towbar feet Glad you had a good recovery out of OKC. I am surprised you only could average 25-30, does that inlcude stops? What gear did you pull over the Arbuckle Mountains? I am heading to Tinker this week to go get 2 more M818s.

I have used them, but don't think I have any pics. Have you looked through the Towbar TM? Good stuff in there.

RE: My new M936A2 project Holy cow, that is a sweet wrecker. :drool: The only nicer/newer one I have seen was BKubu's M936A2.

Hey, thanks.

No I don't think so.

I imagine those wheels and tires might be worth a couple hundred.

I am rebuilding a M1076 and need the lunette assembly. This includes the drawbar extension that slides in the receiver. Basically, the top half of the attached parts diagram. Anyone have one lying around?

Congrats on the big rig. Looks like a big project to me. Can't wait for all of your updates, complete with pics and video, as usual.
