This one is 8'. "Rollcoal" has one that's 10'. I think 10' is optimum.

Might I suggest a hammer also? If you go into water, frequently the truck will flip and put you on the bottom inverted. It takes a while for the truck to fill and allow you to open the doors. Note that you're head down, so you go under before the truck fills. If you have a hammer you can break...

I presume that like most of the rest of us he's going to use it as a toy and as an oversized pickup truck.

My experience with A0 and A1 is 5-6mpg even when fully loaded and towing another fully loaded one. I've gotten between 7-12mpg on A2's. 56mph is the happy place for A0s. A1 and A2 will both go 65+, but the tires are not rated for it. A2's have a pronounced advantage towing heavy in hilly...

The cactus one is serial number 0003. I came as a result of a customer seeing my ad for the one with scorpions and wanted this one made to his spec. He needs the wide opening to put a pizza stone in it. I suggested the door in order to provide even heating. You'll also note the inner racks made...

Sounds like air dryer problem to me. That should fix it. There's probably moisture all through your air system. You may want to chase that too...

It's made out of 5ton wheels. Does this make it MV related?

That is correct. The off road restriction is not applied to the 5tons

Most states have provisions for temp tags and trip permits while you wait for the title.

Don't pay a shop to replace seals. Bring it over when you have free time and you and I can manage it. Meanwhile, just pour it in faster than its leaking out. That'll keep fresh oil in the motor and rust prevention for the undercarriage - it's a feature, not a bug. While I haven't done it on the...

I tried bbq paint on the stock exhaust and it came off in short order. I can only think stainless would be worse adhesion...

You had me in the garage last night examining my 8.3 liter blocks wondering what I was missing. Lots of good info posted to this thread - at least 2 of us learned something new. Thanks

A piece of channel, a coupla 1.5x2" to replace your shackle mounts. Weld and drill.

Mixing old and new batteries strikes me as a bad idea. 2 batteries have always cranked adequately to start even the nh250, even in the cold. Although I can see wanting 4, especially in cooler climates.

They're legal in AZ. Never a problem from GL. They always sent me real titles, and even in a timely manner...

I'm having the same problem. I'd like to express joy that I paid a premium to get a real title that would allow for transfer, and what I received is a Florida registration that AZ won't accept. My frustration is beyond description at this point. This is but the final straw...

Title status makes all the difference in value. A real street legal unrestricted title obtained by other than fraudulent means will double or triple the value. If it doesn't have that, simply browse the sold hmmwvs on GP and that'll give you a pretty good idea. it would be a slow resale for you...

I believe I have sold new 24v warn winches for $875 for complete kit... I have no winches at this time. Edit - Winches draw a bunch of amps. This is likely to kill any converters. I don't think there's a clean way to stick a 12v winch on a 24v system that wouldn't cost as much as a 24v or...
