    Lockers??

    Nice heavy duty jack! Anyway the link should help on Detroit 'No-Spin' operation. That is perfect world video and low rpm or low load turning. If you're on the pedal and accelerating through a turn, they'll stay locked. Best thing I found when driving Detroits (when possible) was to give a...

    Putting larger tires on the deuce using stock rims...

    Off road performance is hurt because of the great loss of suspension articulation. The A3 wheel has the smaller lip at the bead and *shouldn't* be used for non MPT tires. Do people do it- Yes. Is it against what the manufacturer suggests- Yes. Are there other wheels that would be better...

    Lockers??

    I don't understand some of your questions given the fact you have experience with lockers and spools. ??

    Abandoned M135

    Huh, an M220 'shop van.' That's interesting. The tires look like Goodyear Custom Xtra Grips. I had a set of six of those on an M34 and they worked really well. I would definitely continue to pursue that machine!

    Spring 2011 Rausch Creek MV Rally

    The deuce would walk away with the Mog on a straight pull since the Mog is 3 tons lighter @ 8,000 lbs. I pulled my one deuce up a pasture (yeah, the winch front winch thread) by hooking into the deuce's pintle hook then up around the winch drum on the rear of the Mog to get good weight transfer...

    Spring 2011 Rausch Creek MV Rally

    HA! You should try NOT trying to get a second one after you already have one! -that is REALLY tough. I found a frame and axles for a 416 and am trying really, really hard to forget where they are...trying to stay focused. Trying... I really want to get into a five ton and get my 475hp...

    Spring 2011 Rausch Creek MV Rally

    You could see in just the tire tracks alone that the Firestones had a MUCH better foot print and better bite than the NDT's really ever could. The truck looked really meaty too with 10 of them on it with the flat tread area opposed to the rounded and slightly smaller NDT's. Had a real good...

    Pto??

    There's one or two on eBay now I think...there was a day or so ago. Search 'ton military' and you should find it.

    Since the thread got kicked up again I'll offer an update: Over three years later and my HydroMax braking system is still working great! [thumbzup] ...and Jake, thanks for answering some questions in my absence. :mrgreen: You did good!

    Selectro Hubs

    Hey John, I'm racking my mind to remember what 'heavy spacer' you're speaking of. Could you elaborate on that a touch to maybe spark my memory? Thanks-

    m-1028 vibration

    It's a diesel. They make everything vibrate like **** at idle. We have a brand new 10,000# 55' JLG Telehandler (pettibone or lull people identify them as even though they're brand names...) and you have to drive with both feet backing up to rev the engine above idle and keep it still slow with...
