do you have a picture or diagram of this "load brake"? my understanding of a worm drive is that no brake would be required - kinda like nuts don't need a "brake" to keep from untwisting off of the bolt when tension is applied... :?: and i thought there was only one brake to adjust on the...

awesome, Russ'!! gonna need lots of info on your motor and transmission mounts. heck, want to make a second set?? i'd be willing to pay you for your time... :-D

he's in hammonton, nj - and he's not on here much. best to try and give him a call. that's what i did. :wink:

dibs. :-D

what's the concern - has a multi ever run away? detroits are notorious for having their racks stick and cause a runaway, for example. but is it even possible for a multi to runaway on fuel only? the only thing i can think of is an oil seal failure on the compressor side allowing oil to come...

apparently you've never been to Iraq...

using this quick reference site, it looks like your only PTO options for that RTO is right or bottom side.

i thought we would count the baby HEMTT... actually, if i had the means, i'd have 2 m984 wreckers: one standard for full capacity and the 2nd shortened for offroad recovery / maneuverability. i'd take about 8' out of the middle and go to a single front axle; keep the crane and main winch...

hasn't that been done?

there are thrust loads in forward - it's designed for this, but not for the opposite. ring and pinion gears (which have spiral bevel cut teeth) have an angle that exerts thrust loads slightly like a worm gear. the greater the ratio (numerically higher), the greater the angle of the bevel on...

out of the 2 million-ish miles that our BDE logged in '05, the LSAC cabbed FMTVs ended up w/ the "safest" record over the HEMMT/PLS and HETs. also, we never had an incident w/ the tankers - that spray-on coating works well.

yes, when mounting a steer axle under a Ford or Dodge (w/ driver's side transfer output) the diff chunk is removed and rotated 180°, and the entire axle housing is rotated around as well. this will leave the front diff input only slightly off-center towards the driver's side. if you wanted...

i'd say if you had access to a trailer w/ 110,000# capacity we wouldn't be having this conversation...

interested in 4.

what about just like you're doing in the first pic, but flip the tire over and put a small block (chunk of 2x4?) under each end of the board to press the sidewalls / bead further onto the wheel. may get two sides of the bead on further, then rotate the board to get the other areas... ? then...

:ditto: the weight ratings go up real fast for big tires. IIRC, the 395 goodyears i have are 9300lb rating. large industrial tires can have incredibly high ratings. as much as those huge hydraulic boom crane weigh, i wouldn't be surprised if the tires were upwards of 20k rated...

i've never seen one on the back of anything else except a 916 or 920 - rear winch is always used to load/unload AFAIK...

10...... 10 Ton..... 10 Ton Foot Looooooonnng....

if you're talking about in a pick-up - it is extremely rare for the transfer case to fail. most failures seem to be from vibration or driveshaft angles. lots of guys w/ 1000 hp cummins still use the stock transfer case. if you're asking about a hi-po motor in front of a deuce transfer in a...

most models of trailers had to be modified before they could be pulled w/ the M1088's - the kingpin was moved forward (so that the tires of the 1088 would clear the landing gear) and 6" - 8" blocks were added to the landing gear feet (or blocks were supplied). i don't know the height of the...
