One of my deuces has a speedo that reads fast. No GPS or pace car, I just know it won't do 60-65 mph at 2400 rpm on stock tires. First I assumed that it had a speedo adapter for the 1100/20's, so I swapped it with the one on my long bed with 1100R20's, as it reads slow with the bigger tires...

Sorry clinto, wrong info above. The A3 data plates do not list on / off road capacity. The A3's are 5000lb cargo period, no doubling for on road. this is due in part to the combat wheels, the wheels are rated at 4000lb max. and without a even driver the fronts have over 3000 on them.

rorybellows All current issue military truck tires are DOT approved. Have been for quite a few years now.

Awesome truck! Pictures don't do it justice. Can't believe Cris let it go :cookoo:.

Sounds like a couple of you need some tuning. I've had several different 880's The 886 a solid 9mpg (except for the time when the float was screwing up, then it was 6mpg) 1st one, a M882 would get 9 on the highway pulling an 1800 trailer with a 3800 car on it and the bed full of stuff. yet...

how does 40 to 48 MP4G sound? [MP4G = Miles Per 4 Gallons)

the data is on the trailer's data plate. I use not applicable for the items like fuel type, mileage, etc

seller likely refering to t-case rear seal. all std 77 Dodge truck stuff, any trans shop can deal with.

don't know if I'll make it there, Wondering if I'll get invited to this "Michigan MVPA" group...........................

Back in the day way before Self-Serve, I was a 'Professional Petrolium Transfer Agent' The places I worked had the Diesel pump off and away from the gas pumps. and the "big issue" was between "regular" and "unleaded"

and that clerk was in violation of mandated procedure for former untitled Government vehicles. you mentioned a 17 digit vin, Deuces don't have that. "printout of the auction from the website (so they can link the VIN to the Lot# on the invoice)" some of the auctions that I have won, have not...

There is really no point in getting it. You would need it to get a title, but Michigan won't issue a title for it anyway. I would think you could take your paid in full invoice with you and get it registered. If that don't work then buy the SF97 from GL

My guess is that GL paid for most of that calender. The Thursday reminders tell you that. I am very happy with it (calender). So what if GL ads are in it? I'm sure all MVPA members are aware of GL by now anyways.

The -10 manual states max military speed 70 mph. 65 seems to be the sweet spot on mine.

"KL" GM K series (4wd) Left You may also find things with "CK" = for both 2wd & 4wd

More info needed is "SEC. 28-81. PARKING OF VEHICLES WITH CAPACITY OF MORE THAN ONE AND ONE-HALF TONS IN CERTAIN DISTRICTS." is this a subsection of a commercial vehicle ordinance? if it is then it wouldn't apply. secondly 3500 series pick ups have a cargo capacity greater than 1 1/2 ton...

Thanks Guys! That pic was on my home from the 2009 Camp Grayling Trail ride both those trucks are "works in progress" albeit slooooww progress, lol

Yep you are right the michelin is only 9 1/4" wide across the tread blocks. but I guess mine are not worn out enough yet to be rounded on the edges. Sure the F'stones have the outside blocks closer together than the XL's which may have an impact. but I have to think yours is an alignment...

I have heard of people using the frame serial # and corresponding year to register the A3's. The frame is an older A2 frame, and in most if not all states the frame vin wins out over a tag screwed to the dash board. Wise move on not letting them title it as off road. around here they are...

sandcobra164, So you're saying the 1100 "Firestone's are much wider" than 1100 Michelins :confused: While I don't have any Firestones to measure, I ain't buyin' it!
