Quite possibly someone that has actually done it will pipe in and correct/contradict me here but.... If you have locking hubs on the front and unlock them, I don't see where it makes any difference if there is an open diff, Detroit locker or spool/welded since there will be zero power reaching...

Something I forgot to mention about the containers; Any dent in the roof/top/ceiling whatever you wish to call it will collect and hold rain water. It is very common for these boxes to get dented in this area. Also, due to the design of the roof material (It is bent or corrugated just like the...

I don't mean to rain on your parade but.... Whoever told you a 40' steel shipping container weighs 8,000 lbs was just a little bit off. There are dozens of websites that list the specifications of ISO shipping containers. Here is just one of them: Steel Storage Containers for Sale Direct from...

As explained to me by someone very much more smarter than I are.... (A person very knowledgeable on the M920/916s and highly respected and much envied member of SS) On the 920/916 it is not a "Disconnect". It is called a, "Power divider" but this is actually kind of confusing. It works more...

Nope.... But thanks for trying!

If you add this: To this: Looks like we have our getaway driver!! :driver: :driver: :driver: :driver: :driver: :driver: :driver:

M920 Wheels and Tires Well, it is official (Pending EUC of course) I need to start getting my parts in order... I'm going to start with wheels and tires. For the M920: I want to put either 395/85R20, 14.00x20 or 16.00x20. I know Soni has the 395's and reb87 has the 1600x20's. I am...

Congratulations!!! WOO HOO....

For the front this is exactly what I would do. When you head off the pavement, lock the hubs. OK, I need to make a disclaimer here; I have lots of experience with 2 axle vehicles but not with 3 axle vehicles but..... The M916 and M920 both have Detroit lockers in both rear drive axles and full...

Cool.. just goes to show you, every day new products are developed and brought to market. I would guess/assume/think that the DL is old enough the patents have expired and now others are free to copy the design. . Nothing wrong with copying a well proven design and it is entirely possible that...

Pretty much any/all other "Locker" or "Limited slip" units are going to work differently than the DL. Yes. 100%. In this case think of the ratchet in the example as being automatically reversed by the direction the driveshaft is turning. Except in reality, the mechanism is simpler than...

When the vehicle is turning the outside wheel must roll faster (More RPM) than the inside wheel. If the differential is a spool or otherwise welded both wheels will obviously be forced to make the same RPM no matter what. When off road or on very loose road conditions, (Snow, ice, mud, sand)...

That looks really nice! Is that with the 1600x20's?

On selling the last one: Why not disassemble it, clean/inspect all the parts. Scrap anything no longer serviceable, paint the housing and anything else needing painting and then clean, pack and label everything else and store it for future use as spare parts? No, you won't recover any cost that...

To facilitate the flat towing (all 4 wheels on the ground) of regular rear wheel drive automatic transmission vehicles there is a company that makes a drive shaft disconnect device. You install it on the driveshaft and drive as normal, when you want to flat tow (and not tear up the automatic...

Since I seem to not be finding a S-749 does anybody know of another alternative that would be within a couple inches of the same size as the 749? Could be a military or civilian options just as long as it is heavy duty built. Would much rather have a 749 but.....

Well.... You sure know how to quench the thirst to own a HEMTT. aua Of course a 920 is not going to be much better. auaaua

Good deal, glad you find the stock parts you need. I'm still looking for 4.88/4.89 gears. It seems they are completely unobtainable.
