The original plan was for the guy to bring his truck to OK and we'd mount the bed there. As it worked out, it was just better for me to deliver the bed. So the cutting down, rewelding, and painting was done in OK. Then I delivered the bed and we placed it on his truck. We then designed brackets...

Not my truck, but we converted an M931A2 to a short wheelbase shortbed cargo truck. .

Short bed delivered....

I've got a bunch of new tanks, but I think they're for the PLS. Should be easy to adapt. ....

Salt river canyon, one of my favorite places on the planet.

I'm wandering loose again... Here's some pictures -

No. Likely you have moisture all through it. I'd start by testing the sensors and isolating which one failed. I'd probably replace both and rebuild or replace the air dryer. You understand, this is just my best guess. It could very well be a stuck park brake lever thingy, but I'm thinking...

When the sensors fail, they fail on. There's 2 of them. Your air system likely has moisture in it.

20+5' Gooseneck, empty. Probably 2-3 trips, the first one in about 2 weeks... Thanks

I've towed an M989A1 thousands of miles at highway speed. They tow just fine behind an appropriate vehicle. A pickup truck is *not* an appropriate vehicle....

It's a slippery slope you're starting down.... It ends with 37's, and the 4.56 axles out of an M1008...

Except I've towed about 15 different M1101s with a stock M1009 and never had any problems of that kind.

Here's my take on pintle risers - Take a stock height civvy truck with a stock hitch. You want to tow an M1101 level. So you fabricate a custom pintle riser. It looks like a steel plate, with triangular gussets, leading to a 2x2" drawbar that inserts into the stock 2" receiver hitch. To be...

The OP is talking about getting an A2 with the stock 14.00R20's, same as the ones I blew...

This is my last trip. I'm selling the gooseneck after this one. I've got a new phone, same number. I lost all my contacts. Text me and I'll add you back in... Thanks

I blew 3 singles on one trip. 80% tread or better.

I've towed them with a stock M1009 without issue. If you must have it level, making a pintle riser isn't an ideal solution. The drop to the truck changes the leverage, and applies twisting forces to the truck frame. This also applies to dropping the lunette. Dropping the lunette has the added...

I've seen 1988 A2s.

Duals, with the mid axle chained, isn't going to get stuck much easier than singles. The differences in ability to go in the slop (or snow and ice) won't be what makes it or breaks it. With singles, the 2nd flat is a disaster... The shorter wheelbase of the truck tractors will be more nimble...

The air over pressure most likely isn't related to the CTIS or the governor. Your PPV is stuck, so the governor is never seeing the pressure and keeps building air. You're hitting the pressure relief valve at 150psi. Solution - replace your air dryer and PPV.
