By "grow" you mean heat expansion?

Is he cross-eyed or does it just look like it in this pic?

Those work. Not my first choice as they leave the fragile valve stem rather exposed. I've broken more than one valvestem on those... But they're priced right, and a pronounced improvement from what you've got now.

The path of least trouble and least complexity is to get the aluminum MRAP rims that are shown on my deuce in the picture. I had no issues with them, but my steering was stock. I'm not sure if there's an issue with your aftermarket steering.

Stock wheels and 395s are a bad idea.

Do you have an air shift tcase or sprag?

I wonder if HEMTTs were deliberately excluded or if that was an unintended consequence.

Please elaborate...

This should answer your question...

My understanding is that the 809 and older trucks used shorter wheel studs up front.

It's not an LMTV rim. I'm not certain what it is. I suspect that it is some flavor of MRAP rims and not compatible with 5ton trucks.

Here's what hemtt rims look like -

That's appesrs to be an LMTV rim. They work on 5ton trucks. Here's another one -

I'd like to buy your bad alternator. I just need a placeholder to give the belt something to ride. Someone needed an alternator worse than me and so I was persuaded to sell mine. Now my poor wrecker sits in the field, all forlorn and nonrunning...

I share your concern about tampering with the castle nut. Conceivably it would be weakened substantially.

That sounds ominous...

The thing about ether and preheat... pick one or the other. Do not combine them. For the NH250 I prefer ether. Although the 939series has built in on board ether, I use a spray can and squirt it briefly over my left shoulder right as I start to crank. It's thoroughly mixed by the time it...

I have anderson connectors... and a 500' spool of 4/0... we could make the mother of all slave cables...

The slave plugs and the anderson connectors are both marked. When crimping and assembking them be sure to get it right and then afterwards there's no way to screw it up.

Something like you, except I didn't think all that much of them when I was in. When I was in, the M998 was just coming out and replacing the old jeeps. 6.2 gutless turd and 3spd with no park. And now that I have mine, it's one of my favorite vehicles. I've driven this one everywhere :AZ...
