The only way to operate one of these at speed is to do it just like a scraper, that is to STIFF leg the left leg, either using a post or a Conner, ect, this makes you part of the machine and takes the bounce jar from the seat off the back. this is why old time dirt spread hands have a left leg a...

The reason another poster said the chain will hit on the inside duel on 1100s, is because of the way the duels move out of line when making turns, the military truck has a lot more side to side movement that a OTR civi truck, I can't run inner duel chains on my 819s 1200s for the same reason...

Dave, after posting about axle/motor clearance in a thread about flipping a axle in the TRAILER forum :???:, I NOW look what forum I'm in, NOT what I THINK I'm in :roll:

why is this thread in the rally forum, it will make it hard for someone searching the deuce mod forum from finding this info

the tm-260-10, shows max of #20,000 for the pintle on the 816, this must be for c/c, all the towed weights are 1/2 of what the 211-10 shows for highway, strange the tm--211-10 shows #30,000, also shows that the 543 weighs # 34,690, might have a start rolling problem, but ought to be able to...

The name for the 819 depends on -1-if I have to work on it (GDPOS), 2- if I want to work on it (the truck), 3- If im just sitting in the cab (great truck), 4- just looking at it (beautiful truck), of course all of this when it is not wrecked

there is a SS member selling 1100x20 chains in the classifieds for $ 50 a PAIR plus s/h, a lot better then almost $500 for 1/2 a pair of triple chains

Well at least he had the CORRECT pins in the CORRECT direction, not like a to remain unnamed member who had a tow bared deuce try to pass him

Or a crane

sorry, didnt see that, ill delete my motor post

my tm-260-10 said nothing about speed, ect, with tow baring, refered to fm-20-22 (1990 is on mine) vehicle recovery operations, it says very little about flat towing. so ???????????

I can tow for pleasure :), not for hirer I just got the front U-bolts, waiting for the rain to quit, then I can put it on rubber so I can jack up the motor to replace the front cover/motor mount This will be a slow repair due to monetary restraints

You know what this means, now the price of wreckers WILL go up

From what I have seen, most if not ALL SS rallys are VERY family FRIENDLY, VERY self policeing. In fact these are the first rallys that I have seen of this size and type that there IS NOT a few jerks making trouble, at the 10, GA. rally, some outsiders started to be a problem, it was handled...

The 11, GA. SS RALLY is at the end of OCT., we had over 75 trucks last year, It is a DO NOT MISS rally, 2011 GA rally Definite dates??? Welcome to SS

DH, the answer is NO, why do that, it is more fun to be adventures, like looking for the starter button, the engine kill, the M/C, where to drain the air tanks, or ????

With 1621rpm for 55 to 1827rpm for 62 makes me wonder if this rpm is LOW for OPP. power for the 250,. with 1621, as soon as power is called for, a down shift is called for. 1800 is not much better. it just seems that the 250 runs best between 1900 and 2000 just my thoughts "just can't find a...

There is a good write up in PS mag. about this MIL, SUGGESTED mod.

Or thay didn't know what you were talking about, so ALWAYS with that knowledge, the answer is NO

It should be a TWO chain setup, if a tb lets go, the chain takes the load, with a SINGLE chain use, the chain will run, allowing ALL the slack to go to the emergency side and in turn allowing more side steer pull, if the TWO chains are done right, there will be almost no slack and and the towed...
