HA-HA! THE M977 CRANE COMES TO LIFE!!! *I don't have pics tonight...but I will add a couple tomorrow I gotta say...and not just because it's mine, but that sucker looks cool as hell all spread out with the out riggers and the crane all a stood up and telescoped! It was such a rush to pull...

Something else you guys might want to consider is that the drop side beds to the outside of the bedrail is 1" PER SIDE more narrow than a std non-drop side bed. The like six hinges are about 1" wide though. Visually...the drop side looks better fitting, TECHNICALLY...both beds are the same...

I specifically asked the chief editor of Four Wheeler Magazine that question about the chain quiestion. Whatever your tire comes with on it is IT. No chains or other traction adding devices. Cut tires are permitted.

I'm in exactly the same boat with my rear winch. Clutch MUST have frozen to the shaft. If you get it free, post it. If I beat ya to it...I'll post. :)

I don't quite follow you on this- Are you implying that the 3053 is pretty much the 3052 direct drive tranny with only the 4th and 5th swapped to make the overdrive?

HRD, no problem. Randy O' is a good guy. I've been running his double spline rear alloy axle shafts and allow drive flanges on the back of that big M715 for a while now. VERY nice parts from fit to finish. Readyman, you need to put in at least one of the double spline rear axle shafts to...

I have had these lockouts and Selectros both apart side by side on a bench. These ARE a heavy duty hub. They have better sealing. They have a LOT more axle spline engagement. More rigid construction. NO plastic parts. Okay...so in fairness- the Selectro is a little bit lower profile, and...

Hey can you see if they have any M977's that are really in bad condition? On the larger upper two hydraulic rams below the mast there is a junction block on the top side of each. There is a large plug of some sort that screws into it from the hook side of the boom. I need both of those and...

I was referring to the USA6x...wheels, in case that wasn't clear. They are not DOT approved.

The wheels are NOT DOT approved. If memory serves, the only beadlock wheel DOT approved is a high dollar Hutchinson wheel. Miltrucks- Please let us know as driving down a paved road look and see if the wheels are running true. Keep in mind that .030" is maximum allowed wheel tolerance run...

The actual physical process of doint that single rear axle conversion isn't all that bad...BUT everything is heavy, doesn't balance, and you must have room to work or you're just flat screwed.

My M715's VIN came back as a PA boat trailer. After I got the lady to LISTEN TO ME about 5 digit VIN's we got it straightened out.

Huh, that's nice to know- Pretty much regardless of what joint is in the knuckle...if it's in nice healthy greasy shape, you'll pop and axle before you hurt the joint.

BUT...don't be fooled. The biggest problem with the ball style ones is not strength per say, but if they get dry or gritty and let loose they do a lot of other damage. I have an axle I pulled from a past deuce truck that broke the front outer shaft at the drive flange and the ball style...

Wow, nice one! Yeah, fuel tank puddy after it's REALLY CLEAN with laquer thinner, then you may even want to take a peice of sheet metal and screw it on over it to really sock it in there. I had a leak in my tank that I fixed about two weeks ago by running a roofing screw with the rubber ring...

Bizarre...sorta that low rider look.

No kidding, Clem!!! Hemmt and crane on a video game!!! That rocks!

Hey Barrman! This site should just about seal you fate of deuce truck ownerdom. :) A couple more pics.

I don't know how they claim the 12.5's to be on a 10 or 11" wheel...they look as if designed for a stock width wheel.

Huh, I've just never had that happen. I mean...I'm mean to these winches sometimes. Mean like logs gets hung up on something I think it will go past, I'll unspool a little cable, kick the pto out of gear and back the truck up and give it a jerk that way. Never had one unspool. I thought it...
