There are already different size steering wheels you can use. I have seen M809 series trucks with both the large and the small wheels. I'll try to get some pics and measurements.

You can get the OEM valve stems for about $21. I have the contact information if anyone needs it.

Re: RE: First MV - M101 That is what I did. I spiced into the wiring and have a 4 way flat and 12v bulbs when I want to use it with civilian trucks. Welcome to SS! Where in Oklahoma are you from?

I have seen M35 with the brake line locks added. It doesn't take much to retrofit one. A nice feature to have when you have to park on an incline.

Ideally, you want 2 piece rims from the M939 series 5 tons (A1 or A2 models). FMTV and HEMTT rims can work, but are not the best choice. For the ones you are looking at, how many bolts hold the rim together, 10, 12, 16 or 20?

RE: I Great looking M1009. Can you please share some more pics of the antenna and where it is tied down. When up, how tall is the antenna?

JATonka's trucks are sweet. I wouldn't mind having one.

We must have different interpretations of the term. Anytime a bed and frame is shortened, I consider it 'bobbed". When I hear "conversion", I think of an astro van with comfy velour seats and a wood dash! :-) If you search the forum for "conversion" you will get a lot more hits, but few are...

Welcome to SS. Search for "bobbed" and you will get over 130 threads to read up on.

Can you provide the WMS to WMS measurement? (Wheel mounting surface). Info for both front and rear would be good.

To be honest, I have never mounted or dismounted one of these. I bought several dozen from GL that were already on the rims. It might be a while before I exhaust my supply and have to break one down.

Looks like an 18' trailer would be just about right.

Here are the 2 styles of HMMWV rims and tires on my M1008s. I used 2" wheel spacers to offset the huge backspacing. They work great for me.

These adapters with 1.5" pins should also work with the medium heavy tow bar.

What are the adapters on the left in the pic? Are they for use with the standard 5 ton chain with pear ends?

It would be nice to have a set of those. Then 1 towbar could handle everything from a HMMWV to a HET.

I have seen those medium heavy bars before as well. I think I have some adapters that are 1.5". Do you have any pics of the 1" and 3/4" adapter combos? Any extra adapters available for sale?

Those axles were swapped in place for better fuel mileage rofl

RE: Re: RE: 5 ton shear pins I received my shear pins from Jatonka last week. Thanks John Tennis!

RE: Re: Beadlocks Yes, or wrestle in. Beadlock inserts + cold weather = no fun and little progress
